Kyrsten Sinema is being called a non-viable candidate after her fundraising took a dive

No

Kyrsten Sinema is a non-viable candidate for:

Never holding a town hall

Skipping votes to fundraise

Giving a literal thumbs-down to a federal minimum wage
…after publicly stating min. wage was a “no-brainer”

Refusing filibuster reform

We need a mechanism to remove federal officials

Call it the Sinema TITS it GTFO Out Reform Act or something. You can decide what TITS stands for.

American elections are contests of strength between factions of billionaire oligarchs.

Democracy cannot survive when political parties can take unlimited money from billionaire donors, foreign and domestic, and remain anonymous.

The goal of Citizens United was always to convert American democracy into a Russian-style oligarchy.

Texas is already a Russian-style oligarchy, including the assassinations of dissidents & public corruption.

In 2024 Texas-style public corruption goes national if Republicans win.

These are the folks who own & operate Texas as their petty fiefdom.

ArenaCops,

@flexghost The mechanism for removing public officials from office is commonly known as "impeachment" & "expulsion", both requiring a two-thirds majority.

sjgenco,

@flexghost We have a mechanism for removing federal officials, it's called the vote. To be fair to our dear Krysten, it's hard to be consistent when the overlords who tell you what to do are themselves inconsistent batshit crazies (but with lots of money).

pixelpusher220,

@flexghost And sadly she's quite viable as the spoiler candidate the GOP wants in the race.

Given that Kyrsten Sinema's fundraising has taken a dive, maybe she needs to revisit the curriculum of the Arizona State University course SHE TAUGHT:
“Developing Grants and Fundraising”

The syllabus: "students will learn diverse fundraising strategies for nonprofits as well as how to cultivate donors, including large individual donors, by leveraging resources like opportunistic fundraising, finding supporters for major fundraising events — and, well, asking for money."

TITS = Teaching Institutional Trickery Scams

Once Sinema was outed as accepting money from Republican billionaire donors, her actions had context.

She is a sell out.

Her constituents elected her to bolster democracy and she betrayed them.

Once she became an "independent" she lost her utility to the billionaires who bought her.

Tacky Is as Tacky Scuzz.
As a rule I don't criticize what women wear. But her tacky ass style and dressing like a 17 year old, begs for an exception. She's like that professor that wore a bright green bowtie, saddle shoes or something in a desperate attempt to be "quirky" and "interesting"

@flexghost I was disappointed there was no explanation of why she had a stack of papers on her head. Took me a minute to figure it out.

    @Bam @Hey_Beth @flexghost Thank goodness she could still have a sense of humor about keeping taxes on the wealthy low while pinning minimum wage at a level people couldn't survive on with overtime even if they were living in their car.

    notroot,

    @Hey_Beth @Bam @flexghost She does Triathlons. 'Nuff said. It's like if Queen Didulo was a vegan, marathon-running cross-fitter who dressed like Margarine Trailerpark Queen. Just a delusional, inflated sense of self. Center of the world.

    The reason Sinema doesn't attend meetings or do fundraising?

    She's too busy training for triathlons. Literally. That's her excuse.
