Sen. Manchin: 'It Would Be Much Easier' To Switch Parties

"Sen. Joe Manchin represents the bright red state of West Virginia, a state that President Trump won by nearly 40 points in 2020 and by even more in 2016. He is one of those very rare creatures in today's Democratic Party, a moderate.

He and his colleague, Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema, have been the only two voices of sanity in the Democrat-controlled Senate. The party has shifted sharply to the left in the past few years. Manchin and Sinema have put the brakes on President Joe Biden's $3.5 trillion "Build Back Better" plan. They've forced their party to lower the price tag on the bill as well as its scope.

Naturally, their obstruction has triggered the outrage of fellow Democrats who are anxious to pass the bills."

Imagine that...

i remember when RINOs like John McCain and Mitt Romney were getting **** for being fake republicans and democrats accused republicans of being purists and extremist. Does that mean we get to call those democrats purists and extremists for being pissed at Manchin?

Number ONE West Virginia is not a bright red state

They like both parties. And one of their longest serving congressmen was a Democrat.
As for Joe Manchin, he is a corporate whore.
Whore. I did not mince words. He's a whore.
He'll sell his granny's grave for another quarter profit margin in a heart beat. Specifically the heart beats of his own constituents.

It is apparent that you know very little if anything about West Virginia, as with most topics you like to comment on.

Manchin was a popular governor due to his moderate stance on issues. He continues to be elected due to his moderate stance in the face of the left. However, he does have a propensity to grandstand in an apparent attempt to draw media attention his way, just as he is doing now. But in the end, he caves into Chuck Schumer and tows the party line.

As for you take on Manchin being a corporate whore, you talk as though you have intimate knowledge about this. Instead of simply calling him out, please show us the evidence you have that he is more of a corporate whore than any other member of Congress.
