I doubt this will change too much. I bet she still votes for Biden's judges, and that's all I really care about for the time being. It looks like she's trying to avoid getting primaried while courting more donors.

I don't disagree with this, but what does that have to do with Sinema becoming an independent?
To do exactly what is stated. Be the fall guy for people not knowing politics, and when nothing gets done you can use that as an extra excuse when most folks don’t realize the senate is at a stalemate anyways if you don’t also have the house

rotating villain

In American democracy, when the majority party has enough votes to pass populist legislation, party leaders designate a scapegoat who will refuse to vote with the party thereby killing the legislation.

Are you insinuating that Democrats are putting Sinema up to this? Stop it you know this is right up the Republicans alley. They tried it the Tulsi Gabbard in 2019 or so. And don't be surprised to see Manchin jump ship in 2024 if the Dems pick up more Senate seats. The right really doesn't want to see the left govern and as you've seen they will do anything to prevent it.

Established dems with the backing and instructions of corporate donors. If Sinema and Manchin woke up and decide to vote for progressive issues guess what? Two other corporate dems will step up and block legislation.

@TM101 is correct. Rotating villains. That's what America gets for allowing corporate donors to have a voice in politics. :manny:
