Shocking no one Krysten Sinema has left the Democratic Party and registered herself as an Independent.
“I’ve registered as an Arizona independent. I know some people might be a little bit surprised by this, but actually, I think it makes a lot of sense,”
This move by Sinema, while disreputable and under-handed is politically brilliant and shrewd. Sinema has been cagey about how she'll caucus and stated she expects to retain all her committee assignments. Obviously, if Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer moves to sideline her Sinema is likely to threaten to caucus with the Republicans having cultivated a friendship with numerous Republican men. Additionally, back in September, before the election Sinema told a throng of right-wingers she gleefully looked forward to Republican control of the Senate,
“As you all know, control changes between the House and the Senate every couple of years. It’s likely to change again in just a few weeks".
But, with Reverend Raphael Warnock's victory in the special Georgia run-off election seemingly gave the Democratic Party a surprising 51-49 Senate advantage, clearing many of the hurdles of an evenly split Senate. But, it also removed Sinema's power and her ability to undermine Democratic legislation if it suited her fancy. And so a capricious Sinema is ready to jump ship over to her Republican daddy's, whom she has claimed to have charmed with copious displays of her cleavage. Coupled with her readiness to sabotage Democratic legislation and policies to win Republican male approval, she also re-exerted her power over Democrats as well.
Sinema has also just launched the salvo at the Democratic Party Senate Races for 2024, because if Ruben Gallego, who was widely believed to be gearing up to primary Sinema for the Democratic nomination for Senate in 2024, now runs for Senate as a Democrat, Sinema will run as an Independent and siphon off just enough votes to ensure the AZ MAGA Republican pyscho wins the seat.
Sinema is a fraud and really sold Arizona Democrats a lie. First off all, the Green Party is rightwing organization solely dedicated to helping Republicans get elected. Alt Jill Stein here is a prime example. Her tenure as a Green Party Arizona state legislator indicated she was progressive and as Arizona moved steadily towards the Democratic Party Sinema did as well "becoming" a Democrat in 2012 and then winning the 2018 US Senate election against crazy Martha McSally but, now her past actions really should be seen as a callous ploy or deceitful ruse to gain her enough cachet to win higher office. Because since making the Senate she's turned her back on almost every issue she ostensibly supported and has taken pains to ally with and praise Senate Republicans while undercutting her "Own" Party,
"Senator McConnell and I have forged a friendship, one that is rooted in our commonalities, including our pragmatic approach to legislating, our respect for the Senate as an institution.”
Alt Jill Stein's ultimate goal remains a mystery. Does Sinema really think she can inherit the Maverick McCain title? Is she so high on her own renegade bonafides to make a run for President as a No Labels Third Way Indie? Despite her effluent praise of Mitch McConnell, Sinema doesn't stand a chance in the Republican Party of Arizona which is untethered from reality but, not so untethered they would vote for a bisexual who twice voted to impeach Trump.
Hey, look at the VOTES. That is ALL that matters
ReplyDeleteShe's effectively killed any chance she had of a future in politics. She may want to run as an Independent, but who's going to fund her? She raked in a lot of corporate cash when she was supposedly a Democrat but now that she's guaranteed to lose any race she enters? It's hard to siphon votes from anyone when you have no money to pay for advertising.
ReplyDeleteI have to assume Krysten SineME-ME-ME-ME-ME-ME is playing a high stakes political poker where she expects not to be called and no Democrat will run for Senate. It's a terrible betrayal of her supposed beliefs.
ReplyDeletein order to make Sinema bashing work, one must totally ignore the ACTUAL VOTES, and buy into framing created by the GOP/RU. A party that has lost EVERY election they have run against the flamboyant bisexual liberal whose political game is second to none, IN BLOOD RED AZ, no less. And we're supposed to be afraid of Gallego? lmao pull the other one
