Democrats censure Senator Sinema

[Concerned American]

U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is growing increasingly isolated from some of her party’s most influential officials and donors after playing a key role in scuttling voting rights legislation that many Democrats consider essential to preserving democracy.
Leaders of the Arizona Democratic Party voted Saturday to censure Sinema, a symbolic condemnation for the woman who just three years ago brought the party an Arizona Senate seat for the first time in a generation.

Last straw: Fed-up Arizona Democrats censure Sen. Sinema

Opinion:
Sinema helped save the republic.
Schumer's abolishment of the Filibuster would have destroyed the balance of power between the three branches of government.
Without the Senate Filibuster the high population states would have dictatorial power over the low population states.
The Corrupt Democrat Party's "Voting Rights Bill" is a total shame, just like their "infrastructure bill" was.
It did the opposite.
It undermined Voting Rights by making elections less secure.
Schumer and the Dirty Democrats are habitual liars who are dependent upon the hate and ignorance of Dem voters to maintain their power.

I'll take their Sinema and Manchin and trade them a Romney.

Not all lines are equal.

This is about voting rights.

No it isnt the democrat bill is about ensuring democrats win and has nothing to do with rights at all.

That isnt what the Democrats are voting to do. I think doing that would be great. If you want to block a bill get off your lazy butt and put in some effort.

 

[Concerned American]

Many of us consider ourselves governed by a minority and are looking for a change.

Take a class in remedial arithmetic. Fifty-two is a majority of 100, moron. Idiots that don't know the difference shouldn't vote.

What effort? Manchin controls his own vote, no matter what they say or do.

Liz Cheney becomes latest House Republican to be censured by state party for her vote to impeach Trump

No it isnt the democrat bill is about ensuring democrats win and has nothing to do with rights at all.

The bill was full of opportunities for election fraud: 15 days of early voting, increased voting by mail, mandates for online and same-day voting registration, voting rights for felons, loosened state voter ID requirements, mandated drop-boxes for ballots, ballot-harvesting, allowing other people to drop off or mail your ballot, federal panels to draw up voting districts...

The whole bill should have been named "The Second Most Extensive and Inclusive Voter Fraud Organization in the History of American Politics"

Such stupid nonsense.
\
you can't even dream up a feasible way to commit significant fraud by any of those methods. try it, let's see you embarrass yourself.

You know, nobody buys your act. yes, we know it is an act. yes, you know it is an act. You merely want to suppress voter turnout, because you know you support the minority party that refuses to appeal to more voters.

Apples and giraffes, Moron.

That's the state party standing up for the will of the people in her state, who were overwhelmingly opposed to the Shampeachment. Sinema is getting censured by leadership for a simple vote on a bill.

Next dumbass attempt at whataboutism?

I've brought this up 4-5 times without a reply. In the bill is a section where a state can not change their voting rules without the approval of the Federal government.

In 2020 many states changed their rules to address the issues with Covid. I fully supported that and I thought it was a great idea to make sure people could fully exercise their Constitutional right to vote.

Do you think those rules would have been permitted under the Trump administration? Do you think those rules could have been addressed quick enough if 50 states had to get approval through the federal government regardless of who was president?

Apples and giraffes,

It's exactly what you complained about.

Yeah. Ask Liz Cheney about that.

 

[Concerned American]

their donators

I rest my case ^^^. 'Nuff said.

This sort of thing does not add to the appeal of the Democratic Party, even if it's just in Arizona instead of nation-wide. The latest Gallup poll numbers reveal the democrats have slipped about 7 points in 2021, down to 27% approval which even lower than the repubs at 29% and the indies at 42%. Our way or highway may not be attractive to voters and those thinking about joining their party. It'd be funny if she left the dems and ran as an independent in 2024. And won or divided the vote enough to give the seat to the GOP.

 

[alang1216]

She "doomed democracy"?

I like a little hyperbole now and again. There may also be a nugget of truth in it. There is a saying that the tree doesn't bend will break (or some such).

If our government is so polarized that it can't change, one group or another will decide to tear it down and start over. Plenty of progressive types may be starting to think that way, hence BLM, the voting rights bill, and police reform. All have essentially failed to create real change and people will eventually give up on reform and opt for replacement.

The Right is no different, they see their power waning and refuse to admit the country is changing in ways they don't like. I think many felt an insurrection on Jan 6th was a necessary step.
