[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think he's perfectly understandable. He hates liberal welfare policies funded by ruinous tax and spend policies.  Only sane person in the whole democratic senate that wont keep voting on policies that will worsen historic inflation.  The fact they keeo trying to twist his arm and bully him into submission like the American Rescue Plan is the definition of insanity.

Democrats should consider themselves lucky they are in the majority because of him and they can bring their bills to a vote and have been confirming D judges including Jackson.  Ds would have gotten squat with McConnel in charge but I bet Biden would be way more popular than he is now.   [/quote]

Bizarre that Manchin would harbor such hate for welfare policies given that after New Mexico, his own state's residents, his own constituents have the second highest per capita rate of dependency on food stamps and other welfare programs.  And Manchin has done absolutely nothing to actually help his state's constituents get out of that situation and in fact does everything he can to hold them back.

And, this yet again speaks to the total cognitive dissonance of rural white people in red West Virginia thinking we need to "end welfare" because they still fully embrace the stereotypes and think welfare and food stamps is all about mooching black baby mammas on crack with kids by 6 different absentee felon dads in Detroit or NYC living large on the taxpayer nickel with free apartments, free Obama phones, big screen TVs, eating steak and shrimp every night, as opposed to the reality of it being far more of themselves in West Virginia as the biggest consumers of welfare programs.  Distract the poor white people by giving them the idea of poor black people to look down on.[/quote]

Your solution to ‘West Virginia has so much welfare’ is to pile on MORE welfare? At the expense of the taxpayer? During a 50-year high for inflation? [/quote]

Your solution is to do nothing and let West Virginians descend into even deeper poverty.  I'll take mine over yours.[/quote]

They seem pretty happy without interference. Manchin is a King in West Virginia and considering all the DC folks rushing to move to the state - you have no complaints otherwise.[/quote]

West Virginians love their delusions, they love to lie to themselves and each other.  Again, it's all good when you have stereotypical "worse people" to look down on, right?[/quote]

I wouldn’t know but you’re welcome to join your brethren flocking to the state
