#Manchin #Sharpton #Filibuster
Can Joe Manchin name 10 Republican senators who would ever vote to protect the right of every citizen to vote? Didn’t think so.
@mavssami41 you ask what was in the bill they answered you then you turn around and ask them to show where educate yourself before you comment.
@June SC nah…u have to show me in the bill that it does what u say…thats simple…come on…why should I trust that? Why not just post the part of the bill that does what u say?? Bc u can’t
they want to keep up with their fraudulent mail in ballots, because that`s why they were filing all those lawsuits in Arizona, the audit truth is coming out.
@mavssami41 you can’t prove nothing either cause you too Dammm lazy.
@Gregory Guidry what Truth from scam Audit
I wish that when reporters ask a question like at the beginning “did they change your mind?”, that they would not back down until they get an answer.
Google “Leigh sales interviews Huckaby Sanders”, it’s an interview done in Australia and shows how a real journo does an interview.
They are worthless too.
I think the answer is very evident that he has not changed his core belief. Why would he change his mind if he strongly believes in his position. I’m surprised as time goes on more Democrats don’t side with him. What we are seeing here is true democracy in action.
💯💯💯
This guy has been a Republican from day 1,been spying for the other guy for 4 years get this traitor out now
It certainly seems like this.
I don’t know who Manchin thinks he’s representing. 70% of his own West Virginia constituency support the voting rights bill. Follow the money.
@THE ONE BIG RED cool…OVER 70% (think it was 78%) of ALL WVirginians support the bill, and over 50% of ALL wVirginians support ending the filibuster.
Do they ever represent constituents, voter’s & that includes Corp Dems. No!
My entire family is from WV. Trust me 70% of that state doesn’t even know what day of the week it is. Whoever did that poll must have had Biden up 17% over Trump!
Koch is what I found
STOP SENDING JOE MONEY!! TIME TO START PICKETING HIS HOME and OFFICE..
Yeah, I KNEW this was coming !! We went from Moscow Mitch to Moscow Manchin and his sidekick Sinema who is basically another Lindsey graham.. They BOTH Need to GO !!
Frankly, they all need to go. We need better elected officials.
Manchin is holding up some very popular legislation. Hes very shortsighted
No they are not for the minority simple understand
No he`s longsighted he know Trump is coming in August.
Shortsighted? Lmao are you gonna want the filibuster gone when the Republicans become the majority?
He represents the state of west Virginia those people are the only ones he should pay attention to. And stop making this a racial issue every time you wanna push crazy stuff you have to say black people are not capable of “insert stupid policy here” you are literally treating these people as inferior or less capable. But I expect nothing less from people who are void of morality.
Preciado Productions id rather Dems protect voting now and pass everything they can. The republicans alway blow up the rules, cheat, suppress voting, etc etc. Dems need to act like we won the election already
People in West Virginia support the “For the People Act”.
81% of Democrats, 79% Independents, and 71% Republicans of West Virginia support the For the People Act.
So who is Manchin referring to when he says “his constituents”??? Obviously not the voters.
98% of all statistics are made up on the spot.
The problem is Joe is more concerned with what his corporate donors want than what his constituents want🤔
@Aaron 98% of trump supporters were dropped on their heads as babies.
@Aaron 98% of your stats, yes
Manchin is OK with voter suppression? Are his own voters OK with voter suppression?
79 percent of his constituents are not
@Pew pew McPewface Stopping voters from voting by cheating. Conservatives have no other way of winning… and they know it.
He’s being blackmailed. How many men were IN that Russian hotel room????
You have digested the Kool-aid well!
@Steve Hall If you got nothin’, insult the person talking.
I am waiting to see when Manchin and Sinema will go on a pilgrimage to Mar-a-lago to pay homage to and kiss the ring of Individual 1.
Yeah, they’ll be kissing something… 😅
Trump in August clean house, they`re all going to Gitmo.
@Gregory Guidry so true he’s gonna be the first one there with his corrupted worthless offspring.
They both blew the golden spur and swallowed hard. Munchkin and Smegma.
Sinama better be careful because we know Trump likes to walk up and grabs a woman’s private parts but if you try to turn in the snake, he will get the DOJ to defend him and they will probably put you in jail.
why are democrats playing fluffy wuffy lets all sing round the camp fire together the other side is blatantly stealing the system from under you in plain sight
Because they’re all on the same side it’s a big elitist club and we ain’t in it
The House has passed several excellent people-oriented bills but in the Senate it’s a 50-50 tie. While the filibuster remains in place, they can do nothing, and if Manchin, Sinema and a few others refuse to reform or remove the filibuster
He Censureing Himself he Feels Powerful so Let’s Vote him out
Manchin is one of two Democrats with integrity. Easy to understand why you wouldn’t like him.
@David Eby LOL
MANCHIN MUST GO PERIOD VOTE HIM OUT
Voters of West Virginia are the only ones who can get Manchin to save Democracy. They need to speak up.
@Gregory Guidry lol keep wishing
I probably believe him winning in 2024 than him going to the White House in august
He feels he is saving democracy as do many other Democrats and a lot of Republicans.
@Gregory Guidry trump in august. That sounds like good crack to smoke
@Gregory Guidry you believe that you’re dumb
@Andre Samuels use
Everything that happens from this point on will be because of Joe Manchin’s delusional thinking. God help us all
God is helping us thanks Joe
Trump won
Time to remove him from his committee meetings so he consider that his actions have repercussions
“Meanwhile, McConnell and the rest of the Republican Party laugh all the way to the ballot box. That’s what makes Manchin so infuriating. In his mind, he’s the hero of this story. In truth, he’s the patsy. And the country pays the price for his delusions.”
– Washington Post opinion writer James Downie
Anyone think Moscow Manchin will ever vote what his state wants him too. 75% of his constituents are in favor of the voter protection act. Democrats, independents, and republicans all agree the voter protection act should be passed.
West Virginian’s , give Manchin all he deserves. Ring his office, email him, write to him, remind him of his duty to his electors if you oppose his clearly obstructionist views,
That meeting was one thing, “are you a racist or not, dude?” Joe: Yes
