---also will not vote to end filibuster!!---Suck it Schumer!! https://www.rollcall.com/2020/11/09...ing-supreme-court-eliminating-the-filibuster/ West Virginia Democrat Joe Manchin III wants to make clear that he will not be the 50th vote in favor of eliminating the legislative filibuster or expanding the size of the Supreme Court in a potential 50-50 Senate.
Manchin votes with republicans when his vote doesn't matter. When his vote matters like staying with the party to impeach Trump or voting to save Obamacare he votes democrat.
Didnt watch the video you posted but I did just watch Manchin give a CNN interview.He did say he would not support packing the court or ending the filibuster. He would not say he would oppose adding new states when directly asked and would listen to both sides of the argument.Ill let you figure out what that means.
Joe Manchin Slams Fellow Dems’ ‘Crazy Socialist Agenda’ amid Intra-Party Battle: ‘Defund, My Butt’ https://news.yahoo.com/joe-manchin-slams-fellow-dems-205228386.html “Defund the police? Defund, my butt. I’m a proud West Virginia Democrat. We are the party of working men and women. We want to protect Americans’ jobs & healthcare. We do not have some crazy socialist agenda, and we do not believe in defunding the police,” Manchin wrote in a tweet Wednesday evening.
Watch out for Joe Manchin switching parties if it looks like the pubs do not have a majority. Not a card he wants to play unless he has to. His raising the temp around how crazy the dems are paves the way and it makes it more palatable back in W. Virginia.
