It's not surprising. There is a lot in BBB that would benefit the union's membership.


So why is Manchin doing this? Is this more than the most ridiculous petty power-trip ever?


People need to fight for what they want, tie his hands so to speak. Maybe this is just a way to wake up his voters who stand to lose quite a lot if they buy the republican lies about this bill. Or maybe, he really needs republican votes. I don’t know what’s inside his head, but I bet the WH will get a deal—the BBB plan is good for WV.

Meanwhile, Sinema. What’s up there?


Bloated bill chock full of pork barrel bullshit should fail under its own weight. Typical short sighted liberals with no sense of history. Dumb, dumb, dumb.

People from WV: bloated, full of pork and bullish#*. Failing under their own weight.


Ah, yes, The insults. That ought to win Manchin over!

Maybe you all should start mocking the people of NY and CA.

What a thoughtful and nuanced discussion of the substantive issues. You sure convinced me!


PP is right. Who wants 87,000 more IRS agents? Who wants amnesty for illegals? There is a lot of other crap in that bill.

Several economists have concluded that BBB would be inflation-neutral in the short-term and would easy inflationary pressure in the long run.


And several economists disagree.

The child tax credit, which is the only thing he wanted cut apparently, isn’t going to cause hyperinflation.

Power and ego.


He holds all the cards so why not?


Ideally, a public servant would use their power and influence to improve the lives of their constituents. Manchin seems to be taking a different approach, embodying the worst stereotypes of elected officials.


Not everyone shares your opinion that spending trillions is the only way to help those in need.


West Virginia is failing at helping those in need in pretty much every respect. Maybe they should try a different approach.
