He can take a hike. He voted solidly with the radical, far left on every really big and important issue!

He’s trying to prove he can fo just as much damage as an independent as he did as a Democrat.

Another life-long RAT chameleon like ex-NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg, and Tulsi Gabbard. Opportunists changing their party to suit their political need at a given time. Beware the chameleon!🦎

I do like his timing. Right after the Trump verdict.

He wants to get a gig as the “independent” pol on MSNBC or CNN after he leaves office. Time to cash in.

It’s election time, suddenly Manchin wants to look more like a Republican so he can fool WV voters again. Then he will come to the rescue of the Dems.

Gun grabber Jo co authored the most heinous anti 2A legislation during the Obama years…. He was and has been re- elected after his gun grab attempt.
He is even lauded on FR as someone they would love to join the republicans.
Of course, with republicans who are silent on funding bidens budget… maybe he would fit right in.
There was that anti 2A republican prez that signed a bumpstock ban… and the NRA was silent… the progressives were celebrating.
Of course they celebrated lockdowns and big pharma while cities were literally burning.
No church, but burning down cities in masks… Yes!

Yeah, it’s not a coincidence that he choose to do it today.

I think this thing has crossed a line for a lot of people.

I have never lived in a state where people were required to register as anything. We just asked for a ballot for one of the parties during the primary election. I am nit sure what being registered as Independent means. There is no Independent Party. Shouldn’t that be called “unaffiliated”, but again, so what? He is going out of office and I am betting he will continue to caucus with the Democrats. Does this give him some kind of leverage with Schumer? The clock is still close to running out on him so, so what?

I’m a believer that if we are going to have a party system then only members of that party should be involved in picking that party’s candidate. To allow Dems to vote I the primary to pick the Rep candidate and vis-a-visa is akin to having the foxes vote for who is guarding the hen house !
