Sen. Joe Manchin has yanked his proposal for a $1.8 trillion compromise on President Joe Biden’s Build Back Better plan off the table, according to reports — potentially the final nail in the coffin of the Democratic Party’s signature social-spending agenda.

The whore is still haggling over the price.
The cynics aren’t always right.
Manchin is not a conservative. Manchin is a Democrat. Two facts, that at foundation, have not changed.
$$$$$$$ Joey Manchin wants moar $$$$$$$$
Joe pulls out, leaves Nancy unsatisfied.
FINAL NAIL! FINAL NAIL!
(here’s hoping. . .)
I know many here think Joe M. will eventually cave in. We’ll see.
This was the White House spreading the false rumors
Unless Manchin is ready to retire when his term is up, he’ll hold firm
Yeah?
And who the heck is Oprah and how many votes does she have in West Virginia?
He will lose his next election if he gives in to far left threats, intimidation and terrorism.
All that matters to voters in WV is bringing home the pork, that's why they kept sending Sheets back to DC.
I’m gonna give him the benefit of the doubt until “otherwise” actually happens.
Hasn't done them much good has it?
WV is still the third poorest state in America.
There’s a Cornhusker Kickback in there somewhere, Shoot, this only going to add $360B to the debt? Chump change, what’s the concern. If the charge card to pay for this gets rejected just use another one.
Manchin is a democrat YES, Manchin is NOT a commie, Marxist like the party has become!!
“reported Saturday by the Washington Post, citing three unnamed sources with knowledge of the matter.”
That is just too funny coming from the Washington Post. They have no credibility to me.
My thoughts too.
He knows which way the wind is blowing in WV. And VA too.
But it’s a pipe dream for people to think he’ll jump clear to the other side. Especially if it costs the democrats their majority
I think it is something else, namely that bank reporting low flows of money in and out.
Maybe he has had a “come to Jesus meeting” and asked the Lord what is in the best interest of our nation.
