1. lol

some hilarious stuff in the responses

[mwooldri]

2. And there seems to be a common reply.

A cartoon character of her with thumbs down and a mask with "F*** the Poor" written on it.

[TheBlackAdder]

28. Even the Slow Clap guy in Not Another Teen Movie would know not to do that.

3. There is even a tweet from her staff about bring a large chocolate cake to the vote.

So in addition to the little thumb's up dance, she brought a celebratory cake.

Her no vote was in some way a personal victory for her.

5. Sinema's "Let them eat cake" moment!!

[Celerity]

18. She literally brought a cake onto the Senate floor as well. Afterwards, reporters asked her spox

about it and they claimed it was for the Senate clerks. When the reporters asked why did she not just take it to their staff area kitchen (as they cannot eat it on the Senate floor and many were not there when she brought it in) like how most all other gifts of food are handled, the spox cut off questions and walked away. (per MSNBC yesterday my time)

4. From the Twitter thread - this:

[Celerity]

9. brutal, no clue what she was thinking (likely NOT thinking) she posterised herself, self-memed

[TheBlackAdder]

29. Her tweet is remiscent of something Rubio would put out after squashing some help package.

[IronLionZion]

12. Sure she's very sassy but this vote was no surprise

she's been opposing the minimum wage hike from the beginning claiming it will hurt small businesses in Arizona.

[kairos12]

14. That's about it.

[soothsayer]

6. Nice

[NurseJackie]

7. Good for her! Great tweet!

[demtenjeep]

10. I don't twit what does Ratioed mean?

I don't get it

[ananda]

11. Here's the definition from Urban Dictionary

Get Ratio’d
When your tweet’s reply get more likes than the actual tweet.
“Dude i posted a meme and someone else replied with another meme that got more likes than my meme”
“Lmao Get Ratio’d

[CaptainTruth]

19. More negative replies than positive ones.

The ratio of negative comments (criticizing the tweet) to positive ones is high.

[wellst0nev0ter]

27. It means your tweet has way more replies than likes

It's very easy to press a button to like a tweet, so usually tweets have more likes than replies.

It's those special tweets that are so toxic that they inspire more people to take the time to type out replies than to like the tweet.

13. great reply to her twit

30. Wow! You know how one act can cause someone to get a nickname? This image is just like that.

.

The pong of this image will follow her for quite a while, not matter how much she tries to scrape it off of her shoe.

15. This looks like someone is trying do negative messaging about a Democrat.

It just smells like another diversionary and wedge issue.

[kcr]

22. She deserves it n/t

[Hortensis]

31. AZ's MW is $12. She's elected by AZ and doesn't deserve hate swarming.

[kcr]

35. She deserves every bit of it

No Dem should ever show joy at voting down anything that helps the poor, no matter her reasons for the vote. There is no excuse for that.

[Hortensis]

36. Our party is not a club that should be closed to people YOU don't like.

CONSTITUENTS elect those they want to represent them in government. Those constitutionally incapable of respecting that have always just had to lump it. Resentful, sour faces from years of bitter losses are what they get out of it in this country.

As for Sinema, ONLY residents of AZ get to decide who will represent them and from which party.

Btw, those who believe they have the right to deny others their sovereignty are anti-democratic. Of course. When you see descriptions of groups as anti-democracy, that behavior's one of their chief identifying characteristics.

That's also the key identifier of the anti-democratic trumpists who believe all who oppose their choices don't deserve to vote. The appalling similarity between LW and RW anti-democracy zealots is NOT a coincidence. It's a commonality. Another commonality is that they choose leaders they believe approve their hostility to the rights of people who'd vote for Hillary or Sinema.

[kcr]

37. No. It's more like she's going to get shit for her little stunt

whether YOU like it or not.

[Hortensis]

38. Either way, we won't be votes for or against. nt

[Ace Rothstein]

16. She deserves all the scorn she's receiving.

[Mr.Bill]

17. Message to all politicians.

There are Nurses and other medical professionals out there who work 24 hrs straight. And they do it often, especially this past year. And they don't make a big deal out of it and expect people to think they did anything heroic. I know, I'm married to a retired one. Remember this the next time you "work" for 24 hours.

[BobTheSubgenius]

21. So great that the whole government is being filled up with competence. Adults, every one of them.

Gravitas, Kyrsten. Nice.

[Dem4Life1102]

23. Her pathetic "hey look at me" display yesterday

In no way adult or a show of competence.

[BradAllison]

25. I feel like she made a raspberry noise with her mouth

That's how it comes off. She's earned this browbeating.

[TheBlackAdder]

33. McCain 'thumbed down' to save the ACA and help common folk, she emulated McCain to hurt them.

[Tree Lady]

24. She may have really screwed up

But we need her damn vote folks so be careful how we deal with this.

[budkin]

26. She can be primaried easily

And should be.

[Hortensis]

32. Who'd be beaten by a Republican even more easily. True.

[budkin]

34. Why? We have 2 democratic senators

AZ is a swing state now.
