Former democrat calls party toxic.
Yesterday at 8:38pm

Time to cancel Manchin.

Quote:

Washington CNN —

As Joe Manchin prepares to leave Congress after nearly 15 years, the West Virginia senator — who left the Democratic Party and registered as an independent earlier this year — is further distancing himself from his former party, calling the Democratic brand “toxic.”

“The D-brand has been so maligned from the standpoint of, it’s just, it’s toxic,” Manchin told CNN’s Manu Raju in an interview that aired Sunday, citing the shift as the reason why he left the party.

Manchin has been a republican in all but name since the beginning. He is politically to the right of most republicans. He was one of the most corporate of corporate democrats. He came from Oil he owned oil and he mostly legislated for oil, he did deals for oil and he blocked moves against oil.

Manchin scuttled much of Bidens early initiatives, he could be the reason that the US have a convicted criminal and former failed President about to illegitimately take office in clear breach of the constitution.

The answer will shock Dnarever. He voted against three times during Biden's term. The last one when the Dem's tried to take control of the National Labor Relations Board in a desperate move this month. And two Nay votes were won by Biden anyway.

It goes without saying that Manchin does not tow the party line so therefore he eats babies with Trump.

Manchin negotiated all the substance out of one Biden policy after the next. A number of biden policies were not put forward when Manchen determined that he would vote against them.

These were all removed from Build Back Better.

Quote:

Build Back Better plan, which would provide universal pre-K, expand health-care access, and supply generous tax incentives for green energy,

Manchin went on FOX news to announce that he was going to cut the Build Back Better spending in half.

He then had coal industry green initiatives removed from the bill. (His family is involved in the coal industry), He killed child tax credits.

Nobody ever said that either eat babies. Though one is a criminal insurrectionist sex offender and the other was a DINO. Maybe they were both DINO's.

Its just a metaphor, you know like haters are going to hate.

Thats why he is calling them toxic, instead of looking at why he made the comments and reassuring the voters they will accept criticism they attack him and don't address the actual issue.
that is the actions of someone like Putin, he too does not take criticism very well. This will be followed by some dog whistle about Trump.
