1. SINEMA IS A CIRCUS CLOWN

I worked MY ASS OFF To get her elected.

I spent MORE MONEY than I could afford to her campaign.

I have NEVER felt more DOUBLE-CROSSED by a politician in my life.

BEFORE ANYONE FLAGS MY POST FOR SO-CALLED "BASHING DEMOCRATS"....KNOW THIS:

I AM A LEFT WING, ATHEIST, LIBERAL DEMOCRAT LIVING IN ONE OF THE REDDIST DISTRICTS IN THE COUNTRY.

And I am fully prepared to put my full weight behind her primary challenger in 2024. And a lot...I MEAN A LOT of Democrats in my district feel the same way.

Her obstinance regarding the filibuster on voting rights will help destroy democracy in this country.
Either she's too stupid to realize that, or she's being paid off by the Reich wing. Either way, SHE NEEDS TO BE GONE!!!!!

2. She's on very friendly terms with John Cornyn!

What could she and a conservative like Cornyn have in common, besides the fact that they're both US Senators...and don't forget she's been praised by Moscow Mitch!

4. Right there with you

I have been following her for years, contributed to her campaigns and have a friend who has known her for a long time. My friend is dumbfounded too. Double cross is right.

9. I am sure it feels like a betrayal to you

and many others who helped get her elected. It almost feels like she is trying to lose the seat in 2024.

3. She's in over her head. Like the video says, there's no reason for her...

opposition to the bill. We do have to remember she's a former Green Party member and that party's only reason for existence is to take votes from Democrats which always helps republicans.

And she also likes being the center of attention (remember the orange sun dress and the clinging to the male senator at the podium guaranteed her being in the photo of the most momentous spending bill yet in the nation's history).

8. Yes, the question as to why on earth she is doing this

is a really good one. My first reaction was the same as yours, she really likes all the attention. She behaves like a self-absorbed teenager and shows little respect for the office she holds. I really can't think of any other credible reason for her to behave the way she has. That is so sad, as she could have been a super-star. Arizona was so thrilled to finally have two Democratic senators in DC, it would have been so easy to wow her constituents and the attention would have been much more positive.

6. so what has she been promised???

we all know that politics in our country has become a money game, with unscrupulous votes going to the highest bidder. who made her an offer, what was it, and what does it take to counter it?

Exposure? Threat of legal action? More $ to your state? A better offer? An ABSCAM scandal? Kompromat?

The possibilities seem endless, I'm hoping that our leaders are working on at least some of them.

7. Maybe she's just holding out to get

Stuff in the bill especially for Arizona. It's been known to happen.
