Manchin contends he has "never" strung Dems along. "I'm worried about the person that can't feed their family. You can't basically put gas in their car to go to work and having a hard time paying utility bills .. so I'm sorry if they don't care about that. I do."

Hard to believe Millionaire Manchin in his Maserati and yacht actually gives one shit about working people.

I wish he would stop lying and just say ....my donors told me what to do and I did it.

Don't hide behind that. When climate change makes AC required May hru October what will the WV voters want then.

the Dems; Biden and his constituents of WV?

Him saying this just seems uncharacteristically not Manchin.

Just saying!!!

Also - upon edit: Did Bernie get his goat over the weekend with his comments about Manchin.

in an interview last week with Martha Raddatz . ..there have been a few “millionaire Manchin is an anti-middle class hypocrite” exposes, and nobody is kissing his ass hoping this time he won’t throw a temper tantrum and blow up a bill he agreed to support.. and no one is interested in what makes Manchin tick…he’s playing defense and he’s not happy about it

called him on his bullshit. Instead of playing with Lucy and her football, Bernie kicked Lucy on her ass instead of air.
