What's Manchins excuses to stall and weaken the BBB bill going to be this time around?r

[duforsure]

He always does this, and why?

[FoxNewsSucks]

1. Is there a betting pool?

I wonder how he decides on the excuse du jour. Maybe he uses the chicken-poop method.

2. He does, in the making of the sausage, but how many bills does he vote against when it matters ?

That's what matters, and the vote that counts is finally coming.

3. All of his negative grandstanding dampens enthusiasm and respect for the bills.

4. I think his comment Wed that he is ok with a vote before Christmas..

signals he is on board with this bill. He will of course hem and haw and complain and say he is concerned but in the end he say something like this.. the benefits outweigh the negatives and vote yes.

5. If he really had to excuse being such an asshole he'd stop doing it...

[we can do it]

6. Why do we complain before things happen? Why?

7. I think paid leave may be an issue.
