Arizona constituency decides, not the DNC. Sinema can run as the Independent she claims to be.
@watchin’ it
More Red Herrings.
Let know if you have anything intelligent to say.
@Acer Maximinus Good effort at recovery. You made a mistake and can’t (won’t) own it. Deal with it (or not). It must be comforting to you to consider yourself the smartest person on youtube.
@watchin’ it
I said to let me know if you had anything intelligent to say.
And you failed.
All in a vain effort to avoid addressing your ridiculous hypocrisy.
@Acer Maximinus You’ve stooped to a level that you’re now making ghost posts to me. Either post to me out in the open, or don’t post to me at all. You’re no longer worth responding to when you get so low as hide in the dark with your comments.
@watchin’ it
You’re the one who’s comments aren’t showing, Casper. Lmao
Better risking an actual republican winning the seat than letting her win it again, because she’s a DINO.
Agreed. But no longer corrupting the D name.
She did that on her own
Wow, corporate media and Democrats hate to see a progressive try to replace a corporate incumbent.
Is he a progressive?
@January Johnson Yes
Surely Sinema has no chance at winning, so Gallego can say someone has to run to give non-Republicans a chance. Doesn’t seem that sticky for Democrats to live in reality and acknowledge that Sinema polls at 13%.
Exactly. People are talking like Sinema is a popular Independent, like Bernie Sanders or Angus King. She’s not even close. She only switched to an Independent because she knew she would get destroyed by Gallego in a primary.
if you run a progressive candidate, like sinema promised she was, they will win. just give the people what they actually voted for instead of lying to them.
@mpalfadel2008 Your hatred is eating your brain.
@mpalfadel2008 Anger is a distraction.
@Stephen Bailey only if you don’t mind being walked on
I say let the Independent Party support her. She’s “Independent,” right?
you got this ruben gallego! arizonians know bs when they see it lol
yeah ,like cinema girl
Uh… what? Sinema is putting the party in a sticky situation if she runs as an independent.
THIS!!
Yea this is on her, not on Gallego!
There should be nothing shocking about his candidacy not immediately being embraced. We still have 2 years left, so I’m sure the priority is to keep her doing as little damage as possible for the remainder of her term.
Exactly! Who would Dems rather choose: an “indipendant” who caucuses with Dems and torpedoes main legislations or an actual Dem who will support Dems agenda 100%?
No decent human being left right or cent would ever vote again for Sinema. Anyone in a stick spot over an American patriot running for this seat has a very sticky spot where their morals are concerned.
And who voted for Walker?
If lake and masters are the competition, Gallego has a lock on the seat. Come on Don, you are usually more astute than you show during this interview?
No he’s not. He has been exposed and is terrible in this format. The other hosts run circles around him.
Sinema needs to go. Like she goes to Davos but she doesn’t go to her constituents.
Ruben Gallego for Senate he has the courage to represent people unlike Sinema . Democrats don’t listen to how the mainstream is framing this and Sinema favor . Vote Gallego
Gallego will be the kind of senator that Sinema CLAIMED she would be, before she sold out. She’s just setting herself up to be a well-paid lobbyist.
And Sinema had real credibility because she was a green party supporter, it’s insane how corrupting power can be and how she did a 360 for it…
Ruben will be representing me .. and I am glad he’s going to run !! Kristen lied to us.. I will be supporting him!!!
And Sinema had real credibility because she was a green party supporter, it’s insane how corrupting power can be and how she did a 360 for it…
So ridiculous how complex the system become, they spend our time and money to prove their egos instead of improving people lives.
As an independent voter in AZ, I will not repeat my support for Kristen Sinema. She does not represent the needs of Arizonans.
It’s telling that this has been the question from the MSM lately: “How could Gallego put Democrats in a position where they have to choose between him, a Democrat, and someone who left the party?” 🙄
EXACTLY
Sinema did this to herself, don’t blame Ruben!
