Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin opted to sit with Republican members during Tuesday's State of the Union rather than his Democratic colleagues.
The West Virginia senator instead sat between GOP Mississippi Sen. Roger Wicker and Utah Republican Sen. Mitt Romney, directly behind Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst.
As Biden gave his address, Manchin remained seated and refrained from clapping as others applauded the president for lauding items within his Build Back Better bill, including the expanded Child Tax Credit that expired in December, which Manchin opposed.
During parts of the address, Manchin was spotted leaning over to speak to Romney on several occasions.

The article is confusing. It says that Manchin sat on the ‘Republican side”, but then said he sat by Romney??
Biden was bragging about what he put in a bill that failed? Lol
Let me clear that up for you. To the progs Romney is a “good” Republican because he hates Trump. Republicans who support Trump are not Republicans but Nazis who also support Putin, even though Putin says he is fighting Nazis. Self-contradiction is the hallmark of prog thought because logic is racist. Please try to follow along. . .:)
Manchin for Romney trade. Raising the average IQ of each party simultaneously.
I like Manchin, he needs to stay away from Romney or Romney will convince him to go back to voting with the Dems.
