I’m so disappointed with Sinema. I knew when she ran for office that she was considered a more right leaning Democrat, but I really thought she was 100% on our side. I was wrong.

Once again the Democrats blindly think that republicans will work with them, and they are wrong again. Republicans have never worked with Democrats. For as long back as I can remember Republicans will act all chummy while stabbing Dems in the back in the end. When Republicans have all the power, do you think they ask Democrats for help and bipartisanship? Nope. When will Democrats learn to do it their way and screw Republicans. Republicans are just big bullies.

As far as Republicans kissing up to Trump, why? Why have they given him so much power? I don’t get it. What does he have on the top brass of Republicans that keep them kissing his ass. I have never seen a one term President have so much power over their party. Do they really think his shrinking base is worth fighting for? Republicans act like big bullies in Congress, yet cower and kiss ass to a man that lost everything for them. 2022 frightens me, and I just can’t put my body, mind and soul through another insane election.

Sinema and Manchin are trying to live in a reality that no longer exists. It is really puzzling to me why they think what they are doing is legit when their actions or non actions will be blamed for the rise of US fascism. That will be their legacy. As much as I am repulsed by actors on the right I have to say at least they broadcast their horribleness and even when they lie it is easily discernable what their true intentions are. I have much more disgust for those that pretend to be on the left but don't actually give a fuck about our values. If we do have full fascism in 2-6 years the blame will lie squarely on democrats who did not take this moment (a 5 year moment at this point ) seriously.
