1. he hasn't already?

[onecaliberal]

2. He voted to give severely mentally ill people guns back. Can we seriously call this guy a dem?

[old guy]

5. No.

Actually, I've never called him a Dem.

3. I think he will and will think that will save him, but a repug primary would be

Totally worse for him. Better to stay a democratic senator and see how it goes.

4. I'm with you

He is sleaze. He will wait to see how the tRump admin is at the end of the year. If in the decline, (likely) he will stay. Otherwise he will jump ship. The Dems should force his hand NOW.

6. If he was going to jump ship

What better time than right at the start of the year. He had absolutely nothing to lose by switching. Come to think of it, switching after 2014 would have been an opportune moment for him. Why didn't he? FWIW I would rather put up with his RW sleazing than lose another Democratic seat.

7. I don't think so, not to back Trump. It should be clear

That Trump is a sinking ship and will take republicans with him. Manchin is playing the odds in West Virginia and is acting like a bluedog Democrat.
