I know that when Pres. Biden gets his first chance to place a black woman on the Supreme Court, this turd will probably say he's not voting for her because she's "too liberal." Same thing goes for that dipstick in Arizona, Sinema who we have to be wary of.
IF Manchin does that, Biden's gonna have a rough time with African-Americans come 2022, and it won't be the President's fault. The fault will lie at Manchin's feet and his feet ONLY, and same for Sinema if she votes against a black woman Pres. Biden places on the High Court.
People keep saying I'd rather have Manchin in there as a Dem.
Hell he's cutting the throats of Dems as a Dem.

No. No state can be made from existing states, or else the GOP would be petitioning to split Texas

He also doesn't understand that to become a state doesn't require a constitutional amendment

Yes, I wonder if this is an easy "no" for him since he gets to build his conservative credentials
