  1. Yet he had no problem voting down a bill that would have kept red states from suppressing votes.

    Yet he is threatening to bring that about by trolling the news with a possible 3rd party run.

  2. Which is why he’s running for POTUS to throw the election for Trump?

  3. “…but I’m gonna do everything in my power to make it happen anyways.”

  4. Then don’t run No Labels, and give up on that idea, unless you want him back in.

  5. Isn’t he the one talking about a 3rd party run to help trump?

  6. Nobody likes you Manchin, and they certainly aren’t going to vote for you as president, please go away now.

  7. “You’re not wrong, Joe, you’re just an asshole.”

  8. And yet you’d be one of the first in line to worship him and rubber stamp whatever dumbshit he wants. Fuck off

  9. This may be the first time I’ve wholeheartedly agreed with Joe Manchin.

    …so this means you’re going to do everything in your power to make sure Biden gets reelected, right, Joe?

  10. “And that’s why I vote with Trump supporting Republicans “

  11. This fuckin’ guy. I get he’s from WV and we’re lucky we don’t have worse from that state, but Jesus. Sit down and shut up and get in line. Go back to your state and work on helping those people.

  12. “…which is why I support the third party platform of No Labels, which is specifically designed to split the vote and insure a 2nd Trump presidency”.

    My eyes are rolling so hard that they’re creating their own gravitational pull. The onions on this hick.

  13. Gee if only there had been some way to protect voting rights against unjust laws. Oh well.

  14. Then why did he do so much to oppose if and why is he working to get Turnip re-elected ?

  15. Democracy as Joe knows it didn’t withstand the 70s

  16. He’s right, but also this is the guy who supports the filibuster and is a fake Democrat at best, so there’s that.

  17. I wish this man would pull his lower lip over his head and swallow.

  18. Yet he is publicly at odds with the party that is not backing the “Anti- Democracy” candidate. I may not be really thrilled by Biden or the Dems on a whole, but if Jan. 6th is a sample of what Trump can drum up then we’re fucked if he becomes President again.

  19. AND YOU FUCKING MADE THE GOP WIN INEVITABLE BY WASTING EVERYONE’S TIME FOR 2 YEARS UNTUL THE GOP TOOK BACK THE HOUSE!

  20. Oooooook. Now the questions are do you actually believe that, and do you actually care enough to start working against the dystopian authoritarian hellscape you partially enabled by being a petty mercurial little king.

  21. That’s coming from this coal oil fucker 😂 give me a break .

  22. But boy howdy I sure do want to make it so “my” party can’t get shit done! What’s in it for me??

  23. Considering how much of the government caved into his desire to do whatever he wants despite standing precedent and institutional norms, no fucking shit.

    I’ll admit that before he took office I expected the career officials to uphold the limitations on Executive power a bit more. But I guess they only reserve that for when a Democrat is in the White House.

  24. And he oughtta know — Democracy as we know it can just barely function with Joe Manchin.

  25. Major eyeroll at this fucking guy.

    He could have helped, even a little bit, to make it not that way.

  26. Also Manchin: “And that’s why I’m threatening to run for president as a spoil- I mean as an alternative to Biden.”

    smh.

  27. Fuck you Joe. You lost what little credibility you had left after voting down the bill that would have secured democracy.

  28. So why does he keep helping Republicans? Dude needs to pick a side.
