Default Sinema Leaving Democrat Party, Registers as an Independent.

Arizona Senator Kyrsten Sinema has announced that she is no longer a Democrat.

https://www.reuters.com/world/us/ari...co-2022-12-09/

Or, for that matter, a Republican.

She has registered as a Independent.

Of course, she will probably caucus with the Democrats in order to keep her committee assignments.

It would be interesting if she decided to caucus with theRepublicans, making the Senate 50/50 again.

But that’s not going to happen.

The reason is the way the power structure is set up in the Senate.

If she caucuses with the Democrats, it is nothing more than a PR stunt, because nothing changes.

If you think about it, the Democrats, by pure party affiliation, don’t really have the majority, since three Senators now claim to be independents. That means 49 Republicans, 48 Democrats, and 3 Independents.

Senate Democratic Caucus was a scam started in 1903 as a way to grab power. Majority rules is the basis for a Democracy The Supreme Court needs to put an end to this

Angus King of Maine.

And I agree with those that say nothing will change with Sinema becoming an Independent. She supported Biden on 90% of the votes. No reason to believe that will change.

Joe Lieberman.?

The Democrats and their cronies have already declared Sinema a Traitor. She has a mean streak. She just might decide to caucus with the Republicans out of spite.

its pretty obvious that sinema doesn't like being harassed when she's not on the same page with her so-called demoRat friends.


her political positions apparently evolved overtime
