He seems to bizarre as he is essentially the last of his kind. He's frustrating, but he is consistent and predictable in where he stands.

Sinema is much harder to understand, I don't have a good explanation for her. The best I can come up with at this point is that she has personal issues and is obsessed with being the center of attention. She can best do that in this political climate by being a 'swing' vote, and puts this self obsession ahead of actual political beliefs and policy.
