    Yay! Manchin thread!

    Everyone prepared for condescension from people who are happy with everything he’s ever done?

      The only accomplishments of his is sometimes voting with democrats and being saner than the MAGA that will replace him. He was better than what we’ll get when he’s gone but it seems like he’s just finally going full republican now. Hopefully dems win enough seats to make up for his maga replacement.

        He has a long list of accomplishments. Most of which are blocking things Democrats run on but don’t want to actually implement.

      The only thing I really can say is Manchin is a better option than the Republican that would most likely replace him. Kind of like how it is preferable to be stabbed through the hand over being stabbed in the face.

      I’ve already got “he’s the best we can expect from WV so stop whining” checked off on my Manchin Thread Bingo card

        They seem to just be dropping the talking points without the condescension. Haven’t seen one “you do know that [flimsy excuse for Manchin’s behavior], right?”
