This make sense to anybody?

Sinema's ostensible explanation for being difficult?

Sen. Kyrsten Sinema skewered Democratic leadership on Saturday for delaying a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure package, calling the decision “inexcusable” and “deeply disappointing.”

In a statement, the Arizona Democrat warned that delaying the vote only reduced trust within the party.

“Democratic leaders have made conflicting promises that could not all be kept — and have, at times, pretended that differences of opinion within our party did not exist, even when those disagreements were repeatedly made clear directly and publicly,” Sinema said.

and reality. I'd really like to know that Sinema was telling the leadership months ago.
