‘You’re ********!’: Manchin explodes at reporters asking about $2T Biden bill

Sen. Joe Manchin on Wednesday angrily shouted at reporters to go away — telling one, “You are ********!” and “I’m done!” after he was peppered with questions about his reluctance to support President Biden’s mammoth social spending bill.

“I’m not negotiating with any of you, OK?” the West Virginia Democrat said as reporters followed him around Capitol Hill.

Manchin added, raising his voice: “You guys, let me go. This is ********. You are ********! OK? I’m done! I’m done! God Almighty.”

The centrist senator appeared to be swiping at journalist Arthur Delaney of the Huffington Post when he said “you are bulls–t” because Delaney pressed the senator on reports that he doesn’t support continuing enhanced monthly child tax credit payments.

The MSM gets a huge payoff from this bill.

They’re constantly harassing him in the hopes he’ll vote for that abomination.....hopefully it’ll have the opposite effect.

Trump was a model of propriety when it came to the Fake News ankle biters.

LEFTIST lobbyists putting on the pressure

Manchin is one of those guys who apparently does not like being questioned by anyone - the press or constituents.

[Dahoser]

Apparently the media hounding Machine on behalf of the time.

[GrandJediMasterYoda]

Probably the commies pressuring him from his own party. It must be tough belonging to a party pushing a political ideology responsible for 100 million deaths.

Joe Manchin is a West Virginian .... they have attitude.

And he's right about this.

[MtnClimber]

He should have taken up a collection to pay for it.

Wouldn’t last 5 min if he had to deal with the same things Trump dealt with. Whatshizface (the guy we never hear from anymore) would have torn this guy up.

What? There wasn't a bathroom nearby to run to?

Manchin has his panties in a twist because White House staffers have been saying he always caves. So he’s putting up a little extra drama before he puts out for Team Democrat.

Probably a bad hair day.

“Who pissed in his corn flakes?”

In the OP.

I wish no ill upon Sen.Manchin, especially when he is almost the last hope of stopping this $4T (WSJ estimate) train wreck. This being said, ‘CENTRIST’ is a label valid only in a US Senate with Bernie, Patty, Elizabeth and their 45 friends. I left that count at 49 in hopes that the Arizona non-Astronaut is still caucusing in the Blue Dog Democrat closet.

[Leep]

Surprised they haven’t charge him with something.

He is still negotiating for a few extra millions in his offshore account.

He does not like being rushed!
