    That’s strikes me as spot on.

    Add to that she likes the attention.

    You were warned.

        Saboteur:

        The popular progressive US senator Bernie Sanders would consider supporting any Democrat who might mount a challenge against his chamber colleague Kyrsten Sinema after she recently left the party and declared herself an independent like him, arguing that she has “helped sabotage” some of Congress’s most important legislation.

        Sanders’s comments on Sunday on CNN’s State of the Union added to the chorus of detractors against the Arizona lawmaker who has undermined the agenda of the Joe Biden White House and other progressives, including by voting down raising the minimum wage to $15 an hour and reforming the Senate filibuster so that voting rights legislation can pass.

        The independent from Vermont who votes in line with Democratic interests told the show host, Dana Bash, that the leftwing party’s members in Arizona were “not all that enthusiastic about somebody who helped sabotage some of the most important legislation that protects the interests of working families and voting rights and so forth”.

        And, Sanders added, if Arizona Democrats eventually ran someone to challenge the newly-declared independent, “I will take a hard look at” supporting that candidate, though some are concerned that hopeful could unwittingly give Republicans an opening.

        “I support progressive candidates all over this country – people who have the guts to take on special interests,” said Sanders, adding that he wasn’t interested in speaking much more on Sinema. “I don’t know what’s going to be happening in Arizona – we will see who they nominate.”

        Sinema voted along the Joe Biden's policies more than...

        (checks notes)

        Bernie Sanders.

        According to a FiveThirtyEight analysis, Sinema has voted with Biden 93 percent of the time, which is more often than Sanders, who has voted in line with the president's agenda 91 percent of the time.

            Now, one could make the case that Biden's agenda, which Sanders opposed 8% of the time doesn't match his own. That would make Sinema a more "conformist" Democrat.

              Bernie's in the wacko party anyway.
