MSNBC anchor Andrea Mitchel said Thursday “Katy Tur Reports” that Sen. Kyrsten Sinema (D-AZ) “completely embarrassed” President Joe Biden by giving a speech on the Senate floor opposing changing the filibuster ahead of Biden meeting with the Senate Democrats on Capitol Hill.
Mitchel said, “Kyrsten Sinema did something that is extraordinary. Yes, anyone who was reading her body language had to know where she came down on this. She made no secret of it, but she wasn’t openly publicly verbal about it. But she went to the floor of the Senate within an hour of president coming up there to address her caucus, knowing exactly what he was going to do, and she completely embarrassed, politically embarrassed the leader of her own party, the sitting president of the United States, and was giving absolutely no leeway. She made it absolutely clear that she will not give on this.”

Biden doesn’t need anyone’s help to be embarrassed.
He does a great job of that all by his lonesome self.
No means no, Joe.
Maybe it just polls well.
There are some people out there who insist they are Christians but believe some pretty strange things.
Andrea Mitchell? She’s still alive?

The jury is still out.
One democrat with a spine and a conscience.
Joe Biden completely embarrasses Joe Biden.
Like Tulsi, Kyrsten is a warrior princess. Don’t agree with much when it comes to either, but they have my respect and admiration…
The fool is an embarrassment..
Mitchell’s mansion is in Cuba.
Did you see Joe in the hall? He has very odd expressions. I think he already snapped.
“My butt’s been wiped.”
It happens sometimes.
She does not want to loose her next election.
Nah, it’s all a sham.
The Democrats know they are going to lose power within the year.
They are using their two fake moderates to scuttle the removal of the filibuster by pretending to have a couple of moderates.
It’s all a show.
Look at this from her point of view. If you were in her shoes...err, boots - you’d be feeling pressure from all sides of your party to go along and you’d be rewarded. But is that really true? As you look around you see 50 Senators who have gone alone and most of the public wouldn’t even recognize the names of half or more of them. What kind of reward have they received for “going along”? Maybe a few bucks from the campaign coffers every six years, or a better committee assignment.
On the other hand, by standing for principles she obviously truly believes in, she emerges as a leader, a person of principle. While that may not pay immediate dividends, guess who will be consulted early and often when big things are needed in the future?
I can see her rationale very clearly without in any way diminishing her courage for standing up against her party. Isn’t it the kind of action you’d want your kids or grandkids to take in comparable situations?
Does a tree falling in a forest make a sound if no one os there to hear it?
Rephrased:
Can Brandon really be embarrassed if he is too dumb to realize he should be?
Back in the old days, Biden had the old Midas Touch. He could sniff someone’s hair and they would walk away as a supporter.
Now, 81 million voters are down to only 4 million illegal aliens.
“I almost voted for Sinema last time, but considering how elections are in Arizona, I probably did.”
$$$$$$$$$$$
Good one. Laugh of the Day! Thanks.
“I almost voted for Sinema last time, but considering how elections are in Arizona, I probably did.”
LOL!
