From their Twitter:

Americans highly unlikely to support #budgetbill that raises taxes/national debt. Likelihood to support is as follows:

71.5% less likely,
20.8% more likely,

According to @trafalgar_group
& @COSProject
#Poll of likely ‘22 voters. See Report: https://thetrafalgargroup.org/news/nat-issue

Right wing polling company relies heavily on a weasel word - if - to skew the results in the way they want it to go. GOP lying with polls 101.


EXCEPT(!) This polling company was more accurate with the last two elections than any of the other "mainstream" companies.

This polling company missed the California recall result by ten points.

Seriously, what has happened to Kyrsten Sinema?

Sinema sold her soul. She is going to be another Tulsi in a few years. Should not have trusted her and donated to her campaign.

If it said she followed him into a bathroom while filming, you would have something. This is not the same.

Oh, please. Apparently, a Republican voting his conscience and siding with Democrats sometimes is considered "brave" and "maverick" behavior. But when a Democrat votes *her* conscience and sides with Republicans, she's "sold her soul". You people are beyond idiotic - not to mention complete hypocrites.

Is Kyrsten Sinema the Democrats’ John McCain ?

In his day the media cheered McCain as a “maverick” who put principle ahead of party. But it turns out the word maverick applies only to Republicans opposing a Republican agenda. As Ms. Sinema’s opposition to Joe Biden’s $3.5 trillion agenda is revealing, a maverick in the Democratic Party elicits far different treatment.

In the same way that John McCain was hailed as a principled independent for voting against key Republican priorities—including providing the decisive vote against repeal of ObamaCare—if Ms. Sinema ends up tanking the reconciliation bill, those covering the story ought at least to have the grace to recognize there really is a new maverick in town.

The same standard is being applied. Democrats cheered McCain while republicans called him a RINO. In this case, republicans are cheering Sinema and democrats are saying she sold her soul.

Not really. If McCain was betraying people and siding with corporations he would not have been cheered. Sinema is betraying people and siding with corporations and hence should be condemned. This is what she said in March 2018 when many constituents trusted her, donated to her campaign, and worked their butt off to get her elected:

She hasn't said publicly what she wants and what it will take to get her to "yes." You are making up a narrative.

Also these activists are way out of line. Following anyone into a bathroom with a camera is a massive violation of privacy not just for the senator but any other women that were using the restroom.

I have no idea what she is going to do. But, if you think that the taxes are going to be restricted to the wealthy and corporations, you are wrong.

Where do you think pensions come from? Stocks.
Where do you think rising prices come from? Inflation results are the same as a tax. Groceries cost more, Goods cost more. Everything costs more. Borrowing costs more. Housing costs more.

I lived through the Carter years. Look it up.

She’s acting like a teenager. It’s not a good luck over about 20.

True. But the media treatment is completely different. Aren’t they supposed to at least look fair and impartial?

Under Arizona law, it is illegal to knowingly film another person without their consent while in a restroom, according to the outlet.

"The ASU Police Department is working with Senator Sinema and conducting a full investigation of the incident that occurred Sunday,” said ASU’s spokesperson Adam Wolfe. "Due to the active status of the investigation, we are unable to provide more information at this time."

The activists suspected of making the recording are from the political group “Living United for Change in Arizona,” which advocates for easier immigration laws, and amnesty for all immigrants illegally in the U.S.

That’s a seriously bad look for Sinema. Yikes, lady.


No, it is a bad look for the activist. It was against the law. And, then she had the audacity to post on social media.
The ASU police are investigating because not only did these activists break the law by filming in a bathroom, but they also fraudulently gained access to the building in which she was teaching.
I hope they are arrested.
I guess you haven't seen how they followed her onto the plane and confronted her there. Or, in the airport in DC. They think they are going to get their way. They won't.
More likely that Sinema will change her registration to Republican.

It always astounds me that there are actually people like the PP who will *defend* tactics like this "activist" used. Following people into bathrooms, screaming in diners' faces... it's all good to the left.



I have to laugh every time this ridiculous "argument" is used. I never condoned the Jan. 6 insurrection. I know of no one who did. However, that doesn't mean I'm a Democrat.

I can't believe the other women who were in there didn't tell off the protesters. I would have been livid.
