    What Sinema means when she says she ignores the noise is she ignores her constituents. Her focus on what she thinks is “right” means corporate interests that benefit her. I wouldn’t be surprised if she doesn’t become a lobbyist. From an Arizonian
  • When she said that she didn't listen to all the noise, I thought to myself "Oh, so that's why you hide from your constituents when you vote against their interests"

    Love how he never beats around the question but just answers it straight forward. Something 90% of our other elected officials need to learn.
  • "I know this will disappoint so many people. But I need to make sure this is all about ME." -Kyrsten Sinema

    Agree with him or not, imagine if all politicians were as direct as Bernie. Dana - "Does Sinema have the guts to stand up to corporations?" Bernie - "No." No word salad, no equivocation, no changing the subject by saying "I'd rather focus on..." - just a straight up "no". Refreshing!
  • “I know this is hard for a lot of people to understand… but the check was REALLY BIG”
  • @teresas8173
    Bernie Sanders is one of the very few honest politicians out there
  • What an actress! Give her an Oscar! Every word sounds so deliberate and charismatic - a sign of narcissism. How did she get her $11 million? She is full of it.
  • @mikeryan8099
    What people are sick of, is politicians enriching themselves while voting against minimum wages, especially when the proposal is below the poverty level.
  • I live in Arizona. People here did NOT send her to Washington as an Independent! She needs to be removed from office.

    I think the look on Bernie's face when it cut to him after listening to Sinema talk crap for 5 minutes really says it all about how he feels regarding what she did.
  • @lizbell9556
    Sinema has definitely practiced these soft-spoken answers repeatedly in front of the mirror.
  • @jamesl9371
    She is so condescending . “It’s really hard for people to understand my complex thinking “
  • 🫡🫡🫡 salute, sir ❤ and thank you for your dedicated authentic service to working class Americans. ✊🏿✊🏿

    BERNIE! Love everything he said. Any time there has been a lawsuit looking into Defense Companies, we find $700 toilet seats, and $1000 hammers. DOD needs to be audited.
  • She’s a perfect example of someone that money and power has changed for the worst. She knows she’s very unpopular that’s the reason she made that desperate move. I’m very disappointed in Jake Tapper for asking her those softball questions
  • @Wyldfae28
    I wonder how long it took her to perfect that soft, reasonable, “I’m so inspired and dedicated” tone while hiding just how self interested she is.
  • @Calliebelly
    I think Bernie is the 1st politician I've ever heard answer a question so directly with a yes or no answer 👏👏
  • @uosdwiSrdewoH
    I hate that when it's brought up to her that her voting record is mostly democratic she acts as if we're all so stupid that we couldn't understand why she'd leave. Could it be that she was on her way out and decided to screw the party on her way out the door by switching mid way through her term instead of leaving and waiting to register as independent in the next election (which she knows she'd lose) or waiting to see if she gets voted out as a democrat after blocking so much that would help the people she claims she's trying to help (which she would).
  • One thing about Bernie is he has never wavered on the things he believes in.
