  1. Manchin has not "waffled and flip flopped". Dean is lying. He always said he'd only vote for it, if it didn't add to the deficit, and make inflation worse. The CBO score shows it would.

  2. Or more likely, they only care about what their constituents want.

  3. His houseboat cost less than $200K, and that is where he lives while Congress is in session. But, you still think Sanders' who lives in a fancy million dollar townhouse (in addition to his two other multimillion dollar properties) is a man of the people.

  4.  @DotHacker99  Take a look at his voting record. He votes with his party the majority of the time. Really, it's so simple to look it up, but you'd rather repeat lies you heard from other ignorant fools.

  5. Take a look at his voting record, he votes like a Democrat, not a Republican.

  6. All caps, and you can't even get the state right. Why should anyone care what you say?

  7. He always was honest, that if the bill was going to make inflation worse, he'd vote against it. The CBO score is why he is against it.

  8. Name them. I bet most believe in MMT, which has been debunked by the rapid rise in inflation, due to Covid relief efforts. The CBO score shows it will make inflation worse.

  9. Oh yes, the yacht he doesn't have. Rather than buy an expensive piece of real estate, like most Senators do, he has a relatively inexpensive houseboat, where he lives when Congress is in session. How about Sanders' townhouse, which cost five times as much?

  10.  @grandmak.  Numerous boosters of the bill have claimed it won't add to the deficit, yet the CBO score shows it is not paid for and will make inflation worse. So, those who supported the bill lied. As to what is Marxist, most of the party isn't, but there are some members who repeat verbatim Marx's philosophy. They call themselves "progressives".

  11. No, this bill will only hurt Democrats in the midterms. Manchin did Biden a favor, shooting it down.

  12. Yes, in the past, politicians, who stood by their constituents, and resisted the party machine, were railroaded out. But, Manchin is extremely popular in WV.

  13. He never intended to vote for it, if it made inflation worse. It does.

  14. Manchin stated, from the start, that he would not vote for the bill, if it made the deficit higher or made inflation worse. The CBO score proved it would do both. Just because you're open to bribery, does not mean everyone is.
