What happens now that Arizona’s Kyrsten Sinema is no longer a Democrat

would be actively involved in the elections, hitting the campaign trail and rallying support for her allies.

Sinema’s announcement makes her the first sitting senator to change party affiliations since Pennsylvania’s Arlen Specter switched from Republican to Democrat in 2009.Sinema has left the Democratic Party and changed her affiliation to independent, but she’ll continue to caucus with Senate Democrats. She won’t be alone on that front: Sens. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and Angus King of Maine are independents who’ve partnered with Democrats for many years.

In other words, as of 24 hours ago, Democrats looked forward to having what was effectively a 51-seat majority in the chamber. As of this morning, that remains largely unchanged.

MaddowBlog Who cares about her!

MaddowBlog What career?

MaddowBlog She will be back

MaddowBlog No

MaddowBlog SHE KNOWS SHE CANT WIN IN 2024...

MaddowBlog On the contrary, this move, following her political misconduct in sidelining some of Biden's proposed legislation, ensures that her political career is over.

MaddowBlog Ugly ass

MaddowBlog Biden is going to gave her a cabinet position and then the new Democratic Governor in Arizona will appoint a Democrat to serve out her term.

MaddowBlog Or end it .. she could have respect all the people who voted for her and changed her party when her tenure was over..

MaddowBlog BULLCRAP. She is bought and paid for by the Trumplicans.

MaddowBlog You act like this wasn’t already established fact! Nothing, same as it’s always been. She’s just come out of the closet.

MaddowBlog I would think she’ll do what Bernie does. When it’s time to campaign, she’ll align herself as Dem and then register as an independent once elected.

MaddowBlog Doubt it. I think she sealed her fate.

MaddowBlog She is the greatest disappointment I've ever had politically. I'm now sorry I ever supported her. Never again.

MaddowBlog

MaddowBlog This was a trash article unfollow

MaddowBlog It’s why she did it. Nothing principled about this.

MaddowBlog Hey Arizona Dems - We will help you elect a strong Dem Candidate. Dont fall for these shenanigans. You deserve better.

MaddowBlog Or more likely and hopefully END IT.

MaddowBlog Naw I would rather vote for Blake masters over sinema she’s done!

MaddowBlog I officially unfollowed you with this hot take. So tired of hot takes.

MaddowBlog Like hell it will. She has burnt too many bridges with everyone. She only works for the highest bidder.

MaddowBlog She should've changed to reThugLieCon, that's what she really is anyways. 🤷🏿‍

MaddowBlog Pathetic. You, not her.

MaddowBlog Staying in the party that brought you to the party.

MaddowBlog Fire her.

MaddowBlog The hell it will.

MaddowBlog Sinema embodies everything wrong with politics where only goal is getting re-elected. Vast majority of time these hacks spend is to raise money & get re-elected. Legislating be damned. Sinema called Lieberman “pathetic” for doing exactly this. She has no principles.

MaddowBlog Bullshit.

MaddowBlog So you say MSNBC. You know better don’t you? Previous election years shows American Voters becomes more concerned abt the country than abt their party. Compassion for others takes precedence over hate. Once the American ppl understand & recognize Fascism , a change will come

MaddowBlog Everyone knows she's just a Republican masquerading as someone else!🙄

MaddowBlog I'm here for the leftists tears

MaddowBlog Sinema. That's Arizona for ya.

MaddowBlog No it won’t……she is an American traitor…….period.

MaddowBlog The only future she has is to continue being a corporate lobbyist

MaddowBlog Thank you Georgia

MaddowBlog That’s all she’s ever cared about

MaddowBlog I think what’s important here is that, as in the past, her decision was based on how she can personally benefit. This is no surprise nor will it be when she loses her seat and becomes a high-paid lobbyist for the right.

MaddowBlog Nope, she never was a Democrat. She was always just a member of the Sinema Party, self absorbed and directed by what gives her power and influence. She has never been guided or directed by what is best for America and her constituents. Complete and utter fraud, whatever 'party'.

MaddowBlog betrayal of those who voted for you generally isn't a good strategy. she's done

MaddowBlog Well now Surprise, Surprise!!! Lol It's the price one pays for $elling out and now she'll be free from being called out on it but the feeling may last far longer than the 💰

MaddowBlog She could not stand not being in the spotlight. She would need to have a written contract with me if were the majority leader. No contract no committes.

MaddowBlog Nope. She’s done.

MaddowBlog Think again. Republicans will not vote for her. Democrats feel betrayed. Independents will never trust her because she so easily betrayed the democrats

MaddowBlog Nope!
