It's telling that Manchin says this NOW, not last week, but NOW while Biden is on the world stage

[themaguffin]

Seriously what the fucking fuck.

And he has the nerve to say that he has been acting in good faith.

[BradAllison]

1. He must be so proud of his state.

West Virginia is the third poorest state in the United States of America, with a per capita income of $23,450 (2015).

2. And the day before the VA election.

[TheBlackAdder]

3. I think he and Sinema want to foster a Trump Authoritarian State, as their actions seem to effect

.

Their goal seems to be common, weaken Biden and by extension strengthen Trump.

4. His little "Look At Me Show!!!" is playing great over on Fox

[berni_mccoy]

5. And also just before the VA Governor election.

There is a reason he did it today.

[Tribetime]

6. This discussion should have been in private to other senators

And congressman. Talk about these political games need to stop he played the biggest game there was. He must really be full of himself that's his opinion is the only one that matters. Can Bernie now do a press conference and state his side of the story

[FBaggins]

8. Agreed

[FBaggins]

7. Not really

House leadership was trying to get a final House/Senate deal today so that it could be voted on tomorrow to help McAuliffe.

But they were also still trying to add at least two substantial pieces that had previously been cut from the deal (parental leave and prescription drug pricing improvements).

9. Manchin has not been acting in good faith. Others made concessions. He stated that they did not.
