This man has been completely disrespectful to Joe Biden and is deep in the pockets of the fossil fuel industry.
He opposes expanding health care coverage. He supports cuts to SS and Medicare.
WTF are you thinking?

(301 posts)Cant think of anything more fun than watching debates of Vance and Manchin. Such fun!
Pretty likely most voters would ignore the entire VP ticket for either one.
Many years ago I couldn't stand either candidate in an election and I actually did a write-in for "Mickey Mouse". Mickey would be an improvement of either.

(5,825 posts)Mike Nelson
(10,943 posts)... he's even endorsed her, yet? I expect he may... I don't think he would not be a good VP pick, but he could be helpful. I'm not sure what contact they've had. They may be friendly and have possibly worked together during WH-Senate negotiations. A rally announcement of Joe Manchin endorsing Kamala would be welcome. How about an ad - Bernie Sanders on the left and Manchin on the right... saying "I'M WITH HER!"
agingdem
(8,849 posts)continue on to Manchin is pretty much hated in the Democratic Party because he did everything he could to subvert Biden's agenda including voting against codifying Roe v Wade...plus he is a wholly owned subsidiary of the coal industry...
so Harris's VP pick...no fucking way!
KentuckyWoman
(7,401 posts)Yes he votes with democrats most of the time but he doesn't keep his word. No trust. That hijack in public BS is ridiculous. He can just go away.

Manchin, ha
edit to add: this is just a joke, not actually supporting a Republican or an Independent. Posting this disclaimer because times are weird.
LOL!
WHUT?
Another Joe Lieberman? A sure fired way to lose? It's kinda on brand actually, but no thanks. Reward betrayal? Also, HE"S NOT A DEMOCRAT! Ask him.
LOL!
