Kyrsten Sinema Gets Blasted For Doing NOTHING To Help Arizona Democrats

The Democratic Party pulled off some massive wins in the state of Arizona during the midterms, but there was one Arizona "democrat" that was noticeably absent: Senator Kyrsten Sinema. Sinema did absolutely nothing to rally Democrats to get out the vote, and now she's facing heat from members of her own party for being a self-serving jerk. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins explains what's happening.

Democratic representative Ruben Gallego absolutely tore into Kirsten Cinema for her complete lack of help and support for Democrats running for office in Arizona. Now, Arizona was a tough cookie, but Democrats ultimately prevailed. We prevented Kerry Lake from becoming the next governor. We prevented that nut job from becoming the Secretary of State. We kept Blake Masters out of the Senate. Democrats kicked in Arizona, but it wasn't easy. It was an all hands on deck kind of moment, but cinema's hands were missing, and that's exactly what Gago was pointing out. Here's what he said this year, the reason Democrats won is because we fought together as a party. I was out there campaigning for every Democrat in Arizona. I was personally donating, raising money for them, for our senators, for everyone up and down the ticket. We fought as a team in Arizona and we won.

Senator Cinema was nowhere to be found at all. You did not see her at one public event for anybody. And when we have some of these races that are really in the mix right now, she could have been a very good surrogate to help out a lot of our candidates. And she did nothing because she only cares about herself. She doesn't care about how this would help us take control of the Senate. She only cares about herself and he continues. She either needs to get on the team, get involved, or try to make some future decision about what she wants to do with her career. Now, Gago, of course, is an individual who, uh, his name has been floated repeatedly as somebody who may challenge her for her Senate seat in 2024. And I think 100% that needs to happen. Kirsten Cinema is one of the least popular senators here in the United States in her home state.

They don't like her. She will not win. If she is up for reelection, she will lose that seat to a Republican. So she has to be ousted during the primaries. And I think that's what Gago here is laying the groundwork for. And of course, he's doing it in a very honest way. She sucks. She didn't help us. We barely eed out a victory here. We got the victory, but just barely. We could have used her help. We could have used some of her money, we could have used the fundraising, we could have used the name recognition, but she didn't do a thing for us, just like she hasn't done a dang thing for the American public. Sure, we all remember her infamous little thumbs down Cury for raising the minimum wage here in the United States. That's an image that is burned into my brain, and I will never forget that. And I hope everybody watching this feels the same way too, because that was one of the most deplorable things we have ever seen. She immediately, by the way, went and uh, had

A friendly conversation with Mitch McConnell after doing that. That's who she is. She's an opportunist. Opportunist. She only cares about herself. She wants to further her career. And if Gago has any say about it, she can do that all she wants. But that career is not gonna be in the United States Senate. It'll probably be a cushy job somewhere in corporate America. Maybe as a lobbyist, she'll get six figures, maybe seven figures. She'll be fine forever. But we just need to get her the hell out of the politics, the hell out of the Senate because she sucks, because she's clearly only looking out for herself.
