Manchin Lays Out Long List of Demands

12. We are lucky as all hell to have Manchin from WV as 1 of 50 D's in the Senate

That's West Virgnia. A state that went +40 for Trump. (I don't know the actual number but it is crazy whackadoodle Red like that) Without Manchin nothing NOTHING Biden wants to do would get done. But with that being said, I sure as hell hope that after 2022 The Dems have +52 so Manchin can go to hell with his vote after that!!!!

I say pass whatever we can get now (looks like $2.5 trillion combined both bills is what we are looking at) and then after that GOTV the fucking vote for the Dems in 22 and then go scorched earth with a progressive agenda with +52 D Senators and the D House. Manchin Sinema be damned!! (hopefully we can get a new D Senator from CA via resignation or primary as well since she seems on the fence with reforming the filibuster)

As frustrating as it is to have Manchin dragging his feet on Biden's agenda, without him nothing gets done. We F'd up earlier in WI, PA, NC, ME, and IA for not getting a D Senator in from those states. I mean seriously WI. Johnson twice!!?? And Collins in ME again!!?? And sexting in NC..?? Ya, those races f'd us. And yet, we are still lucky to have a D in West Virginia as sucky as it is. Oh and by the way, THANK YOU Georgia!!! And JFC, thank you, thank you, thank you McConnell is NOT the Majority leader!!!
