David Marcus: Democrat Sen. Kyrsten Sinema is the political embodiment of Gen X
Fox News
With the negotiations over the $3.5T spending plan, Democratic Sen. Kyrsten Sinema from Arizona is very much in the news today.
The Democratic senator from Arizona is very much in the news today. Along with the other "rogue Democrat" Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, she holds the entire Biden domestic agenda in the palm of her hand. So far her response to this has seemed to be something along the lines of "whatever, never mind."
Progressives (read Millennials and Boomers), are furious. This cavalier attitude undermines all of their orthodoxies. But Sinema is not a moderate Democrat just because she thinks $3.5 trillion is too extravagant a gift for the progressive caucus and New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez’s squad’s congressional debutante ball.
