@InUnfunky @TwiHusband iirc, phillips used to be a republican, too. anytime someone jumps from a rep, directly to trying for potus, it's fishy.
@Absinthe You should NEVER trust a turncoat. As soon as they see an opportunity, they'll hoist the Jolly Roger and gut you. Every fucking time.
Sinema was a Green Party operative her entire career, until she flipped and used a good line of shit to get herself elected. What sort of morons would let her run as a Democrat? The Green Party is a stalking horse for the Right Wing. Period. The outcome was utterly predictable.
NEVER trust a turncoat. @InUnfunky
And here we have a kinda sorta testament to the much-vaunted "horseshoe theory," wherein the "far left" (I get it, but inaccurate) purportedly "meet" the far-right coming back at them in the same direction...with the "mushy middle" (now mostly trad Dems, with SOME prog bleed) occupying the center. Since DJT the right is fucked, don't even bother.
Obvs that Sinema has been a cipher, so no loss.
Naomi K does this concept with a bit more detail in her new book...
