Lol. NRSC backstabs Manchin after he backstabbed Democrats the past 2 years… robertjpetersen Community (This content is not subject to review by Daily Kos staff prior to publication.) Monday January 23, 2023 · 9:39 PM EST Share this article Hahahaha. After backstabbing Biden and the Democratic agenda for the past two years, all too often doing the Republicans bidding in the Senate how does McConnell and Republican Party reward him? They get even more demanding — and kind of nasty while doing so. The National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) has this 30 second ad up called “Maserati Manchin” putting pressure on his constituency to remind him of “West Virginia values” which I can only assume means they want him to be even more of an obstruction. But dragging him for his 700k yacht surely isn’t the payback he expected for his service. Couldn’t happen to a more deserving guy. Lol

1. Strange framing.
Manchin is well aware that Republicans want his seat.

2. Karma is apparently, a bitch
Lie down with dogs and you get fleas. Or in this case turtles.

4. Of course they're going for his seat
He served them well but they'd rather have a real Republican in a dark red state.

5. OMG Hilarious.
I wouldn’t say life was THAT good when everyone in your own party sees you as an obstructionist and the other party just stuck a knife in your back.
I mean, money isn’t everything. |

7. Manchin wasn't "backstabbing" Democrats...nor ws he expecting "payback" from the Republicans
Manchin voted to give Democrats control of the Senate, voted to impeach Trump, and supported almost all Democratic initiatives. He's an actual Democrat; just not as liberal as you'd like.

9. He beats the hell out of having somebody like Lindsey Graham in that seat.

10. Couldn't those same things be said about Sinema?
Do you consider her an actual Democrat as well?

12. Seems like an excuse to re-post right-wing smears of a Democrat who helps us keep
control of the Senate to me.
So much for not bashing leading Democratic figures. |
