Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) on Tuesday lamented the lack of Senate support for tougher gun laws following a mass shooting in Texas hours earlier but rejected the notion of eliminating the filibuster for the purpose of passing such a bill.

Common sense gun control dictates that Democrats shouldn’t own guns.

Most of the people here see thru him. He’s a political hack who just tries to keep getting elected. In ultra-conservative West Virginia, he has to at least attempt to look the part.

But he is a snake and always a pu**yhair away from a stab in the back.

Two days.

Since clearly the filibuster isn’t going anywhere, contrary to your dire predictions of doom, I wonder if you will have the courage to eat your claim chowder.

Or, will you be the pathetic scum coward that I think you are.

Own your L.
