Manchin makes one decision that is a good one. Every other one has caused this nation harm. Now he is a hero. BS! He still is a piece of crap. 1 in a 100 does not make him a Hero.

Patriot my butt. Manchin is a Democrat, he’s always been a Democrat, he’ll always be a Democrat. If he’s voting against this bill it’s because his price hasn’t been met yet.

Are there any weak sister, Uniparty (GOP) Judas senators looking for that one big score before they retire? If Murkowski sees that Trump is going to end her political career, why not vote her “conscious” and get the payoff that sets her family up for generations? She certainly hasn’t had any qualms about screwing the Alaskans who elected her before.

You are going to need to go spew on someone else. You can't spew on Manchin better than the fake news media.
And Manchin has not been great just on Dementia Joe's terrible BBB. Manchin has already effectively killed some of Dementia Joe's worst, most dictatorial laws he was going to pass, like ending the filibuster, creating more states, changing election laws etc etc. Funny thing is, there is nothing you crazy Dems can do about it.

Meanwhile...

Democrats Pivot Back To Radical Election Bill That Would Ban Voter ID

Not to mention the RCV provisions buried in the bill.

Bet Manchin will vote for it, though...

Nonsense.
What “price” you talking about?
I know plenty of Democrats in our history who are better than some Republicans in the US Senate like Romney etc.

Abbott not only hasn’t done anything yet, he’s a year late pointing out the obvious.

Such crap. Manchin didn’t do this out of patriotism. He did it cause Build Back Boondoggle had a number of anti-coal measures in it.

Lots of criminals have done heroic actions when it meant a lot.

If Manchin's and Sinema's actions save the Republic, they deserve a lot of credit, no matter what.

There is a huge difference between voting to bring pork to West Virginia, and voting to stop the ongoing coup to kill the Republic.

Save the Republic?

How are they more saviors than the 50 Republicans that will vote against the tyranny?

You really are convinced that Manchin is some sort of stealth Republican, aren’t you?

Nope.
But he is better for this country than Romney ever was.
I can$t imagine Romney sticking his neck out to vote the conservative way if it was a 50-50 Senate (Republican President) and the bill depended on him. In fact Romney would eagerly vote Democrat.

“How are they more saviors than the 50 Republicans that will vote against the tyranny?”

Technically, they’re all on the same side. But with today’s politics, both Dems are likely loaded up with death threats (far more than Republicans on this issue) and both also have to deal with a rabid base out for blood in the next Primary (with Sinema way down in the her latest polling).

Ha, ha... I didn’t say he doesn’t deserve credit for this. But guess what? He is going to turn around and vote for Voting Rights Bill to elect democrats in office forever. Codify Cheating.

He looked the other way on the steal, voted for Obama Care, Voted for every liberal judge, Voted for Dream Act, Voted against Drug testing of Welfare Recipients, hundreds of other things destroying the country, a death by a thousand cuts is still death.
