I think much the same thing about people who get outraged about Manchin. I get it, but if he gets primaried then WVa elects a Republican replacement. And then Mitch McConnell would be Majority Leader. That would be much, much worse than having Manchin stymie certain policy goals.

It's more likely to imagine Sinema could be safely primaried, so her intransigence doesn't make as much sense to me.

There isn't much about Sinema that makes sense to me. I kind of respect her for marching to the beat of her own drummer, at least when I'm not frustrated with her for it.

The issue with Sinema is the transformation. She ran as a progressive with lots of left of liberal promises. Then she got there with the ability to demand those and immediately started trying to enrich corporations for short sighted cheap returns.
