Manchin singlehandedly set the Biden Presidency ablaze and put America on brink of tyranny tonight [View all]

No minimum wage increase now.
No voting rights bill now. Manchin says the Georgia bill and GOP gerrymandering in the 2020 census redistricting is just fine.
No gun reform bill now.
No immigration improvements now.
No climate change action bill now.
No Medicare improvement now.

No nothing except if Moscow Mitch gives it his blessing first, essentially. I would argue that Joe Lieberman (albeit a neocon) did not even give President Obama as much of the middle finger and a F*** you as Joe Manchin gave President Biden tonight.

It's almost like it's personal with Manchin. He seems to want to intentionally curse President Biden and poke him in the eye. Not sure what's going on there.

This is a total nightmare. Worse. From someone we thought was an ally.

It's either Manchin voting with us half the time or a Trump Republican NYC Liberal Apr 2021 #37
