The article is just bizarre. He k owns this is poison to the economy, so he’s worked for months to come up with a smaller dose? The quotes of Manchin just don’t make sense
It would make sense if you knew what largess Manchin wrangled for West Virginia.
Because it’s not about the economy. It, no doubt, is about the payoff. What bacon does Joe Manchin bring home to West Virginia? What is in the bill that will pay off his supporters? Manchin is playing both sides of the fence here. Leveraging pork while trying to appear fiscally responsible.
Manchin is an a$$hole.
