Sen. Joe Manchin is denouncing the House Democrat-led effort to impeach President Trump in the days before he leaves office, calling it “so ill-advised.”
Speaking to Fox News’ “Special Report” Monday evening, Manchin (D-W.Va.) made the comments after being asked if he saw any scenario in which the Senate, still currently in GOP control, would try and convict the outgoing president in his final days.

I thought he was for it a few days ago?
Be nice to flip on Senator Red..
He’s trying to play to both sides. As usual.
I take his office has been getting more than a few calls from the voters back in West Virginia.
Sometimes he’s reasonable, other times he’s a nut.
I’d rather hear from Manchin than Romney.
He’d never do it, but if he switched parties or declared as an independent and caucuses with the GOP giving them the majority... whoa man! That’d be a show!
It’d only take a day or so for Murkowski to switch, but I’d love to hear the outcry for however long it lasted.
I don't blame him for not wanting to become a Republican. I am no longer a Republican. So at least he could do is declare his party independence.
From breakfast meeting at the Waffle House?
But he’ll still vote for it when chuckie tells him to.
And Manchin remains a Democrat. That makes him A BABY KILLER.
Let’s give Senator Manchin applause because so few are willing to stop the insane train.
They think it will be beneficial. This is Swamp immolation.
His next decision will be his most important one. It will determine if he has a future in anything, much less politics. Game time Joe and there will be no fence sitting for this one or going back to this nonsense. You are either going to be on the side of the new government or done and I don’t mean a Biden government. He isn’t going to be in the WH.
Manchin has the principles of a sail
Goes where the wind blows
Manchin will show that he is a true courageous patriot and vote “present”.
;-)
Manchin is a Democrat in very Trump-friendly West Virginia.
But Manchin is also a devious (and smart) political operator. He has recently made a few contradictory statements on stimulus checks, 25th amendment, impeachment, immediately after comments by Schumer and Pelosi.
The effect is - he’s put Shmuck Schumer on notice: I’M your swing vote now. Be prepared to pay me!
I am laughing at the Democrats and their new POTUS Pelosi (impeach queen) at work wasting more time and energy, and not doing the people’s business, I’m just gonna sit back, relax and LMAO as Democrat, Joe Biden, makes believe he is the POTUS while Pelosi orders him around like the Criminal, Corrupt puppet Biden really is.
Next weeks inaugration ought to be the “Farce of Eternity”.
Most Americans will either watch on TV or listen to it!!!
When Democrat, Joe Biden realizes he has to work hard and be on his game 24/7/365 being POTUS...he will fold like a balloon that has run out of air!!! Should be a good show as real POTUS, Pelosi leads him to destroy the USA Nation Republic!! However, I will not be watching...because the Democrat Party is in full self-destruction mode!!! 2022 will be the political death of the Demorat Party.
If any of you “Moderate Democrats” realize it...you better jump ship while you can and join the GOP. The American People are not interested in impeachment...they want help from their government & guidance to a safe, sound and growing economy and future. Shucks...that’s a no brainer!!!
He was..that was before the Schmuck Schumer got the riot act read to him on the streets.
He’s hoping he doesn’t get caught between his constituents and Democratic leadership....
