Manchin endorsed Susan Collins last year over a Democrat

[USAFRetired_Liberal]

That’s all you need to know about him. I know this site forbids negative talk against Democratic political figures, but he should be fair game seeing that he campaigned against a Democrat.

1. Thank God

2. Elect enough Dem senators in '22 so this guy does not matter.

6. Yes, elect enough Dem senators in '22... against the tide of voter suppression...

...and election rigging that Republicans are working on, against the loss of popularity Biden and Democrats will suffer because they can't get stuff done in Congress... all because of Manchin and Sinema protecting the filibuster.

13. Too many here

can't grasp this simple truth.

3. Biden was going to pass bills

Without republican support.

Why not cut out the dinos too and vote to save our democracy without them..

[Ace Rothstein]

8. Because unless some Republicans decide to switch sides, it is impossible to pass anything.

Aka not gonna happen.

9. And how do you propose he do that?

If the two “DINOS” are cut out, then there are only 48 Dem/Independent senators. Unless three Republicans cross over (yeah right) nothing would ever pass.

5. Enough said.

[JohnSJ]

7. He is fair game, and he is not a surprise, or should not be to anyone here, however, we need him

right now along with Sinema for the majority

What Chris why 2022 is critical

10. Well I don't

16. I have had two of my post removed

For talking about Manchin, it was before this latest episode...but still

[SaintLouisBlues]

11. Manchurian Manchin, some people say.

[CanonRay]

12. So by our rules

he'd be banned from DU. Nuff said

[USAFRetired_Liberal]

17. Yep

That’s what I was getting at

15. When he claims "bipartisanship" I wish he'd show it to Dems the way he does to Repukes.
