(25,638 posts)Wall Street-Wall Street-Wall Street-corrupt-beholden to wealthy donors and corporations was an effective way to discourage voting for Hillary Clinton in 2016.
If there is proof of corruption, show it.
Sinema seems more nutty than "beholden."

(47,435 posts)Huge donations from big Pharma and financial institutions.
Then she votes in their favor on important bills.
Also ask who benefits from her stunts?
Timing of her must recent stunt did not benefit the Dems.

(25,638 posts)and financial institutions? Secret bribes? A few thousand dollars and she has to do everything anybody says?
Nope. This is the same old populist smear that Democrats are corrupt because a PAC uses money on their behalf or they get campaign contributions from employees of Wall Street.
Sinema's behavior is nutty. No way do I believe that everybody has to be bribed to behave badly. Money is not the answer to everything.
I know I'm the only one who doesn't think everything's about bribery. People are nutty, wrong, stupid, ideologues, etc., and politics isn't the best way to become rich.
Irish_Dem
(47,435 posts)She has four advanced college degrees. She is smart and knows exactly what she is doing.
She's about money and power.
She is going to be very wealthy for the rest of her life.
That was her goal from the beginning.
betsuni
(25,638 posts)How do you know it's about money and that's her only goal?
Irish_Dem
(47,435 posts)People know what she is about because they are looking at her behavior and history.
Reading her own statements, reading first hand accounts from people who have known her since college.
So you take as many facts as you can find and put together a picture of a person's mental status.
Once you do that, you can understand motivations and predict behavior.
She is mentally ill, but very very smart and highly educated.
Money is not her only goal, but a primary one in recent decisions.
She also wants power, control, fame and attention.
I am a retired psychologist, with 40 years clinical experience. Degrees in political science, psychology.
A political junkie since childhood when JFK ran against Nixon.
So 40 years in the field of psychology, 60 years closely observing politics.
Degrees in both fields.
But you don't really need all of that since so many celebrities and politicians are obvious to everyone.

Afghanistan is my pick for her. She can cover herself from head to toe and try to find a male minder to accompany her in public.
What say ye?

(90,364 posts)... thing but dems didn't have a strong candidate to run against him as he called himself an independent who caucused with dems
Cinema doesn't have that option cause there's a strong dem candidate to run against her.
Run the dem candidate at the last minute after she's voted for what we need, screw the gun to head politics she's trying to pul

(52,166 posts)he lost in the primary to Ned Lamont. The reason he won the general election is that the GOP ran a literal child molester against them both so Lieberman got the GOP vote and some Dem vote
