No because if WV tommy were Senator nobody would be wasting time trying to get him to do stuff. If both guys obstruct useful legislation, the guy pretending to be a democrat is simply much worse. Much,much,much worse.
Let me know when Manchin does ANYTHING that fulfills his VORP rating here. Him and tommy are pretty much the same guy at this point only Manchin has been much more harmful because people take him seriously and think he is a democrat.
Heās not the president and thatās not what ābully pulpitā means.
Iām approximately 8900 posts behind in this thread but let me know if we can re-re-re-litigate finally finish litigating the primaries and start pushing Joe left. Or, if that already happened, how it went.
What has he done in six months thatās different from Tubberville?
I donāt really understand this gibberish but seems on major votes they voted the same way every time.
He opposes all the legislation we want to see, so what is his value as the 50th dem if he votes like tommy tubberville regularly.
And I am joking w above because they havenāt been any meaningful votes except for one because he insists on blocking everything else.
You guys should expect more from a Democratic Senator than to literally be tommy tubberville of WV.
They absolutely should be freezing him out of everything. I donāt care if they like him as a dinner date. This goes for Bernie too wtf.
Joe Manchin sucks. This was weakened because of Joe Manchin.
But this 100% does not get passed if Joe was replaced with Tommy Tuberville.
It doesnāt even get a vote if Democrats donāt have 50.

It can be true that he is highly valuable and in a leverage position right now AND we want to be at 52 so we donāt have to depend on him and Sin.
This is possible in your world. But in some imaginary worlds there is literally no space permitted between āI love X with every fiber of my beingā and āI hate X with every fiber of my beingā. Life is simpler over in Imaginary Absolutism Land.
God fucking damn it man. Why are you like this? I feel like every single one of us who comes close to doing anything at all close to ādefendingā Manchin makes sure to post a disclaimer
Joe Manchin fucking sucks and is bad.
Yet you still do the classic twist things around 100%. Come the fuck off man.
From everything Iāve seen the majority of the contraband comes in thru guards and staff. The scanning thing is just a way to create another revenue stream for prisons because once they start charging them Iād be surprised if dems stop them. Then prisons will spend money on some AI to parse thru the scanned docs and make sure no ābannedā language or anything is written
Disagree. In terms of the Senate and House, sure.
But he could pass EOs and also use soft power to influence businesses to be more inclusive the way Trump encouraged them to be more racist for example.
Clicked on this thread because the title promised we are done litigating Manchin.
I feel deceived.
And unless the contraband is literally disguised as letters from Grandma (and not just in with the letter) what does the scanning add? Presumably they already claim to physically check mail, e.g. is there a file in this cake etc. and so on.
Senators are like assholes: everyone has two.
This does happen a lot but itās not because anyone here (or hardly anyone, I canāt think of anyone but I donāt know everything) likes Manchin. Itās just to point out that somehow things could actually be even worse because 'Merica.
'Mericafold
Oh, weāre doing this again
Alright at least Joe is fucking trying something now. Heās not LBJ but at least he is trying now lol.
āI hear all the folks on TV say, āwhy doesnāt Biden get this done?āā said Biden. āWell, because Biden only has a majority of effectively four votes in the House and a tie in the Senateāwith two members of the Senate who vote more with my Republican friends. But weāre not giving up.ā
Maybe Biden should take his dick out in meetings like LBJ? Or maybe update to current technology and keep sending Manchin dick pics until he votes the right way.
Man whatever the fuck it takes to save democracy. CIA their families. Thats where Iām at right now.
