In honor of Joe Manchin retiring, let’s remember the fact that he single-handedly ended the Child Tax Credit, one of the most effective anti-poverty pieces of legislation in recent history, because he thought parents would use that money for drugs. www.huffpost.com/entry/joe-ma...
The West Virginia senator just killed Democrats' agenda. In private negotiations, he questioned whether the poorest Americans would spend financial aid wisely.
how dumb are all the lawmakers who somberly nodded their heads and believed him?
Hope his boat sinks
he is GROTESQUE.
He’s made his millions in kickbacks. Been a great soldier for his handlers. Done more to hurt democrats than most republicans. Good riddance. Hopefully Sinema follows him out the door.
single-handedly plus all the republicans
a ghoul wearing a D in front of his name the worst
As awful as Manchin was - and he was/is truly awful, without him there would have been no D majority in the Senate. When he retires, it's a;most certain that his replacement will be a Party of Trump christian nationalist zealot
As a WV Dem, we have seen the last Dem elected at the national level for at least a generation
