So is Manchin going to stand by and let repugs destroy democracy through voter suppression?

Democracy itself is at stake. Under repugs we get mass death through incompetence. Then they lie about facts and then they blame immigrants. They when they lose at the ballet box, they accept help from foreign enemies and then start suppressing votes.

Which other Democracy in the world criminalizes giving water to voters in a long line in a hot climate. The long lines created by the repugs in the first place and long lines meaning voters want to vote.

Manchin and anyone else allowing voter suppression to continue hates Democracy, hates America, and wants a form of dictatorship. The same is true for any repugs who stand by and watch this happen. But with the exception of maybe 3 or 4 the others have revealed themselves to be anti-American.

If Manchin hasn’t come around on the filibuster by the August recess, I expect he’ll be hearing from many of his outraged, and now vaccinated, constituents, either in person or in the streets.
