Democrat Joe Manchin ‘Torn’ on Impeachment, Has No Problem with Hunter Biden Testifying
Breitbart ^ | 12/12/2019 | Matthew Boyle

Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) told CNN he is “torn” on whether to back conviction of President Donald Trump in a U.S. Senate trial should the House of Representatives pass Articles of Impeachment.

Manchin said he is “very much torn” on the issue of impeaching Trump, a huge blow to Democrats as they seek to hold their party together heading into a contentious House floor vote next week.

You told CNN you are torn? Would you tell Fox News something different?

He’s always “torn”. And always with his wet finger in the air.

Anyone who votes for this impeachment scam should be tarred and feathered.

Anyone who calls himself a Democrat can never be trusted.

That also goes for Democrat, Senator, Doug Jones of Alabama...period...folks there are between five and ten current Democrat Senators that must vote no on impeaching POTUS, Doanld J. Trump...for if they do, they will lose their current seats in November, 2020.... these fools better think long and hard how they cast their votes....We, the people, the voters are watching!!!!!!

No clear-thinking, reasonable person can be “torn” on how to vote on this political impeachment.

Same ploy this tried and true Dem uses whenever the heat comes. He knows he could be voted out of office so he does his concerned act whenever it suits him

The house dems will not be able to say “the bi-partisan vote on Impeachment” and the Senate will be able to say “the bi-partisan vote against conviction”

West Virginians are obviously torn too by continually re-electing Manchin who pays lip service to conservatives. Never vote for the DemRat and avoid torn pols who can’t side with truth while tethered to their DemRat evil masters.

He’s not torn. A no vote won’t cost him anything in W. Va.

If they vote to impeach, then many will lose their seats and the Republicans will take over the House next year.

If they vote to impeach, then President Trump will easily win re-election.

Unfortunate you’re probably wrong. Guy from Montana just won re-election. Who are the 10?

First order of business in new republican house would be to expunge impeachment from Trump and censure dem speaker and committee members for abuse of power.

“Torn” = good way to save face with his voters when this thing goes boom.
