Kyrsten Sinema Manages To Become Even More Vile

Just when you thought that corporatist Senator Kyrsten Sinema couldn't get any worse, she goes and does exactly that. During an interview this past weekend on CBS' Face The Nation, Sinema tried to "both sides" election denialism, by falsely claiming that both Republicans AND Democrats have somehow shaken the public's faith in our election systems. That is a blatant lie, and Sinema knows it, but she'll never pass up an opportunity to be a vile person. Ring of Fire's Farron Cousins discusses this.

Corporatist. Senator Kirsten Sinema loves to remind everybody every couple of months that she is, in fact, just an absolutely horrible human being. This past weekend, for some reason, c b s on Face the nation decided to bring on Kirsten Sinema. Maybe they couldn't find anybody worth talking to. So they brought in cinema and they asked her about, you know, the election issues in Arizona, but not, you know, oh, was it rigged? Was it not? No. They wanted to know. Listen, you got a lot of folks in your home state that have now lost trust in the election process, which is a result of course of Republicans telling Amazonians since 2000, uh, and 20 that, oh no, it's all broken. Everything's wrong. Your vote doesn't matter anymore. It's all going to hell. And we know that, I mean, I have sat here for three years almost now, talking about that issue.

So what did Kirsten sent do in her response? Did she come out and say, yeah, the Republicans have really shaken people's faith? Did she say, yes, the claims of voter fraud are overwhelming and the voters don't know what's real? No, she did. She both sized it. She both sides it. Here is what Kirsten Sinema said in response to that. Unfortunately, what's happening in our public discourse is members of both political parties are twisting stories to create their own narratives. One of the unfortunate things that's happening in Arizona, and we see this in other parts of the country as well, is that the two political parties have gotten more and more extreme. They're going towards the fringes because that's where the money is, and that's where the attention is, and that's where the likes on Twitter are, and that's where you get the clicks and the accolades. The far left is where the money is.

I,

I would love to see it. I, I'm sure Bernie Sanders is, is loving all the money he's getting from Wall Street. I mean, he's about as far left as any elected official can be. And, uh, he's not taking the big money. Neither is a O c I mean, neither is Maxwell Frost. Neither are the other members of the squad. What the hell are you talking about? You absolute gaslighting, buffoon, the far left. That's where the money is. You became an independent and you're doing nothing but taking money from corporations. Like, honestly, this is gaslighting. This is 100% gaslighting and it, and it's working because I'm getting super frigging the more I sit here and think about it. So I'm gonna ignore that part for now because I think I've addressed that enough. We all know she's a lying sack of crap, but the both sides of the casting doubt on election results, are you insane at this point? Maybe you're not actually gaslighting us. Maybe Kirsten Sinema is genuinely crazy. I don't know because I can't tell, because the things that she is saying are batshit insane. None of this is true. Like none of it is true. That woman could not be any further away from the truth. If she were, she would be in outer space, and maybe that is where her head is at this point. I have heard more truthful statements come outta the mouth of Donald Trump in recent weeks than I have out of Kirsten Sinema.
