It’s kind of funny, or sickening, to see the Dems (the Republicans no longer participate) falling all over themselves over $1-2 trillion, when they just passed an EIGHT TRILLION DOLLAR defence bill.

Yes, $8T. If we’re doing everything in ten year spans, that’s what it comes to. Nearly $800 billion in a year, compared with $100-200 billion a year for BBB.

“Despite my best efforts, I cannot explain the sweeping Build Back Better Act in West Virginia"

Why do I think his best efforts consisted of a meeting with fellow coal barrons?

Oh, and Fuck Joe Manchin.

I recently read that there are far more health-care and senior-care workers in West Virginiga than there are coal miners. The fallacy here is that there are more coal executives making big money and passing lots of it on to Joe than there are nurses and LVNs contributing to Joe’s financial future.

“So when you have these things coming at you the way they are right now,” he continued, “I’ve always said this, Brett. If I can’t go home and explain it to the people of West Virginia, I can’t vote for it.”

Imagine the calls he is getting…you liar, you turncoat, you back stabber…etc. And he deserves them all. He should be primaried. I was afraid this would happen, but I still think it was better to get the infrastructure bill passed. I think Sanders is right…hold the vote. Let the traitor vote with the Republicans.

Manchin is far too subtle in his support of some unknown thing he may have in mind.

Yup. No way he comes around on voting rights either, even though he espouses support for some mythical bipartisan version.
I can’t understand if. He really is that stupid or if he’s actually ok with the country turning into a one party minority rule state.

Dude, I hate to break this to you, but that is just the single most incredibly ignorant statement ever uttered throughout the history of the Universe. Congratulations.

This is easy to explain to W. Virginians. Manchin is a liar.

"“Coal not coming back is not West Virginia’s fault, it is a global market shift,” Young said. “And we just need to keep up.”

West Virginia Delegate Young is right.

President Biden moves fast. Senator Manchin is holding West Virginia back. Wait too long, and you could miss the next big thing.

That could be true, but I know I called his office and told him that if the Dems lost the midterms, it would be because of lying pretend Democrats like him. I doubt I was the only one.
