If Manchin switches to Republican he just becomes another number and loses his power and ability to hold Dems hostage.
That said he's kind of a failure anyhow. He promised to deliver 10 Republican yes votes on the Voter Rights bill. Not a single Republican voted yes. Manchin only has his own obstruction as his power.
Manchin switches to GOP, he loses the chair of ENR Committee. There’s 10+ GOP senators from fossil fuel states who would get priority over him for the seat. He’s at the bottom of the totem pole in the GOP. He’s nothing if he goes independent.
He will switch to Independent and caucus with whichever party let’s him keep the most power which certainly would include that Committee.
He’s not switching anything and if he did you should be terrified as Democrats automatically lose the majority and the ability to appoint federal judges.

Nah. She’s a plant. A real POS.
Which would explain the fullthroated support for her by cons and “moderate Democrats” on this board, all talking with the exact same talking points, all loving their GOP plant. Absolutely disgusting.
