Why should he be a Truman Democrat in a Marxist party?
Because he is a strange bird.
West Virginia is a solid red state that was once a solid blue state until Clinton and Obama. Only reason Manchin won re-election was because the people personally loved him. But despise the new Socialist- Democratic Party. If he crossed they would still love him, and in fact put him in line with the majority of his state and save jobs for his constituents.
Bullshit. WV has voted for 20 Democrats and 20 Republicans beginning with Lincoln in 1864.
And what letter any office holder (or candidate) trails after their name IN NO ******* WAY makes them a different person.
I asked you what state you live in. Are you having issues figuring that out?
What about since 2000 dip shit?
I don't give a shit where you've lived since 2000. Where do you live NOW?
Looks like the thought of Manchin jumping ship is a little scary to you. I think he'll probably have to. HIs constituents want prosperity too and will have no problem understanding that Biden's job killing policies will result in more poverty. More than 68%of W. Virginia's voter supported Donald Trump. Unless Manchin is ready for this to be his final term he better make some contingency plans.
Manchin chose to run for Senate as a Democrat, and won that way. That's his choice. I don't live in West Virginia either, I don't give a **** what he does. That's entirely his decision. Besides which, however much of WV supported Rump has nothing to do with political parties anyway.
One thing about jumping parties for a sitting Senator --- you lose your seniority. But the OP doesn't give a ****, it's not his Senator either. Some of the knuckledraggers that hang out here, I don't think they have the first clue in the world what a political party even IS.
