Is Joe Biden Trying to Buy Joe Manchin's Loyalty? If Manchin Can Be Bought, Say Goodbye to the Filibuster

What do the folks in W.Va. think of their elected whore?

[BobL]

At this point I’ll be happy if guns are outlawed, as MAYBE THEN conservatives will figure out that Democrats are worse than less-than-perfect Republicans, and even worse than RINOs (all of whom are protecting the filibuster).

Of course by then it won’t matter, but what the hell, I’ll be through with this country anyway. Our side has already tossed it overboard.

[OrangeHoof]

Which elected whore?

[Army Air Corps]

The whore of the hour - Manchin.

[Wuli]

Of course Biden is trying to buy Manchin.

RE: Of course Biden is trying to buy Manchin.

Yep, that’s not the question, the question is will Manchin allow himself to be bought for something as temporary as this?

[Jonty30]

You’re screwed. I’m told Manchin only votes for Republican positions when Republicans are going to win the vote.

He doesn’t have a record of voting Republican if Democrats have the winning votes.

[Olog-hai]

How many opuses does this make, now . . . ?

It was the RINOs that enabled the steal. If you really believe they’re against the end of the filibuster, think again.

[Olog-hai]

LOL “bought”.

[Olog-hai]

Also LOL “moderate”.

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

My guess is that it is already a done deal. As a part of the deal of the appointment, Manchin had to agree to vote the way Crooked Joe wants him to vote on the filibuster.

“If you really believe they’re (the RINOs) against the end of the filibuster, think again.”

We understand why you need to think that.

So, it’s hard not to raise an eyebrow at the fact that Joe Biden has nominated Gayle Conelly Manchin, Senator Joe Manchin’s wife, to co-chair the Appalachian Regional Commission,

Joe Biden is the most corrupt President in US history. Of course he will try to buy Manchin. The only question is whether Manchin is for sale.

[kiryandil]

I have enjoyed your FR work on keto, but you seem to be stuck in one of the stages of Denial about the assistant Democrats..

[Verginius Rufus]

In Man for All Seasons, Richard Rich commits perjury (so that Thomas More will be found guilty) and was rewarded with the position of Secretary of State for Wales. Thomas More has a great line in the play to the effect that it does not profit a man to win the whole world in exchange for his soul--"but for Wales?"

Let us see if a co-chairmanship of the Appalachian Regional Commission is the US equivalent of being Secretary of State for Wales.

[Army Air Corps]

Is there any desire to remove Manchin?

[BobL]

Thanks, but on this, you can draw your own conclusions from what we’re seeing: Manchin is wavering on supporting the filibuster, but not a single RINO is wavering. That says a lot to me.

Maybe Murkowski or Collins will join later join the Dems in killing the filibuster, and the day that happens, I’ll shut up on this, but I expect a 50-50 vote, with ALL Republicans, RINOs and the rest, holding strong against the Democrats.

We’ll see...
