Everyone around Biden is going to be blamed for this and have ruined their political careers. This is why they are panicking.
Let’s see if Manchin actually something does this time rather than just posture to maintain the illusion that he is a “moderate.”
Remember when the MSM was saying that “Trump’s White House is a shambles” ?
Manchin just wants a payday which he’ll get and this will go away.
Manchin saying I’m available for Prez or VPrez slots but I don’t do windows!
Thankfully they were able to stop that senator from going on television and speaking the truth.
The last thing we need is somebody convincing Biden to drop out - we want to run against him.
Another thing we don’t need at this time is for democrat office holders to start routinely saying things that make sense or sound like they are telling the truth.
Manchin thrusts his hand into the air, shouting “Me, me!!”
Then an unseen hand passes him an ice cream cone and he falls silently into place.
If Manchin really wanted to have the spotlight on him for awhile, he should quit the Democrat party, excoriating them while doing it, and join the Republicans. He would carry everybody in his state.
Spare me. More like an elderly Caeser Romero without his clown makeup.
“top Democrats got wind and convinced him not to “
Watch for the coming Payoff for his “loyalty”.
Great, our new Joe.
BTTT
Manchin is a reliable Democrat vote. He will do whatever he is told.
The moderate/renegade act is just theater for the LiV
Typical Joe Manchin.
Talks big then folds.
Biden won’t resign. His whole family faces jail time for serious felonies. Biden holds the Ace with the power to pardon his entire family. This is why Hunter is now in on all the White House meetings. Joe resigns and Hunter could spend the rest of his life in federal prison.
we know what he is
he is just negotiating the price
Manchin is staking out some ground. Recall that once the President is replaced the Vice President’s office becomes open and any replacement will require a majority vote in the Senate. The Senate is currently 49 Republicans, 47 Democrats, and 4 Independents. They’ll need all four indies for approval because the office being vacant, the VP is no longer a tie-breaking vote. And that gives Manchin the sort of leverage a politician dreams of.
