Sen. Joe Manchin: I Think Hunter Biden Is A Relevant Witness | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Well then…so are ivanka, and Jared, and eric,,and dummy don Jr.
OK…fine. You call all of them…we call Schiff, both Bidens, and eric ciA r Mella.
@William Stewart WHO SAID THAT YOU WERE A SENATOR OR WERE YOU ELECTED VIA YOUTUBE 👍 👍 LIKES!!✌😂😂😂
Hes such a hypocrite. Manchins own daughter got the position as CEO of Mylan after Manchin paid WVU via a huge donation for her failing grades to go away, replacing them with honors. All just to get a her a 6 figure paying job shes completely unqualified for in anyway. Ps: his daughter is the one who’s responsible for the incredible hikes on rx prices, insulin and EpiPens being the most well know, to give herself a generous raise on that 6 figure starting rate
@Burisma Biden like talking to Putin and kicking out the american translator isn’t wierd?
Manchin is a republican in disguise. Let’s kick him out of the Democratic Party
@Nelson Alston it least you would know were they stand
Please do! We Republicans will welcome him with arms wide open. MAGA 2020!!!
@sharon olsen You’re delusional. Get some Freudian Therapy NOW!!!
@Amelia Reagan Wright then please take him
What we have is a gop who sold us out so trump gets richer and they get racest conservative judges.
@sam getalong <--- still waiting for a bus short enough to take it to school
@Jonathan Sterling <---- is Christian trump base. 👈
@sam getalong <--- almost passed third grade on its eighth try
You’re calling Trump low IQ…..a multimillionaire, President of the United States, a roaring success in life and business, the only president who has ever made been on diplomatic terms with North Korea, and the man who has our economy at the highest point in US history……
Why doesn’t he just come clean and switch to the Rethuglican party?
@Mister Hat Not this time, I don’t think there are many Independents willing to give Trump another term.
@Utha I don’t know… Those are the same folks that swear socialism is communism.
you mean sen. joe manuchin is a Democrat???…i really can’t tell…..
This guy has to go
Not in the impeachment case. These senators are out of their minds.
🤣 🤣 🤣 what it looks like when you stepped on a TRUTH Mine
Why does Manchin still have a D behind his name?? It should be a R. He’s just a Repugnant troll, voting against Democrates most of the time. What a schmuck…
@M G THANKS YOU COMRADE
@berdboy What? You must be doing meth again.
@M G LIBERALISM DESTROYS ALL IT TOUCHES..
@berdboy Trumpism is far worst. I believe its cult on the horizon that you probably have already been sold on.
No sir, Hunter Biden is not a relevant witness. This is a trial of Trump’s corruption!
Exactly…the “accusers” believe that a fair trial consists of the defense being forbidden from calling ANY witnesses…thus far it has been precisely that way.
@Burisma Biden you just dont get it. Even if Hunter Biden did something wrong, Trump still bribed someone with government money. If you shoot a man and it turns up, that the man was a murderer, you are still a murderer. Get it now?
Debi Daigle yup
Manchin is a die-hard rethuglikkkan, nothing more, nothing less. His statement that dRumpf’s lawyers had a clear, well-stated case is pure bullcrap.
Don Williams hey don I looked up Joe’s trump supporting votes. Joe is 60.7 percent in favor of voting republican in the 115th Congress. That would make the original posters opinion correct and your finger pointing and name calling not correct. Thanks for trying little buddy! Why would you call someone a moron when you sir didn’t look up any supporting facts? Now, go fetch me my breakfast.
Don Williams Morons. 🙄 Trump said, “ “ Republicans are the dumbest voters in America. You can tell them anything and they’ll believe it. I bet if I ran for President my numbers would be tremendous”.
Pete Lind <<<< Fake Page Trolls are Trolling. 🚨
Ice https://www.politifact.com/facebook-fact-checks/statements/2018/dec/18/blog-posting/no-donald-trump-did-not-call-republican-voters-dum/. That’s a proven falsehood. Gotta try to keep the fake news in check.
Ice 247 didn’t mean that in a challenging way at all. Do you have sources for that quote. I spent 10 seconds looking that up. I can be wrong. Let’s see the quote. I would love to copy it…..if it’s true.
Hunter Biden has nothing to do with any of Trumps corruption conspiracy. Hilarious
@Jonathan Sterling Struck a nerve all that deflecting and distracting?
@betsy buckmaster <--- a chronic liar There is a contemporaneous Ukrainian news article from 2014 that states the prosecutor Joseph Biden demanded be fired was investigating the company his son worked for at the time. Nope, you lose.
@l m
People who bash my country shouldn’t be hiding their country of origin. Some of you foreigners are dishonest and cowardly.
@Rafiki Hey moron, Obama assigned Joe Biden to help reform Ukraine back 2009 and in all that time he waited till 2016 when the Republicans addressed the true and real corruption? He knew the Republicans was going to address those issues in the letter, so he made it look like he had already done it, but back fired. Also, keep in mind that Biden helped Viktor Yushchenko a known corrupted President back 2009 who recieved millions in aid from Obama and Biden, but then was toppled and replaced by new President Prochenko, another corrupted President who Biden and Obama promised hundreds of millions in aid yet again, but insisted on removing the Ukraine’s Prosecutor that was investigating Burisma at the time, before he released money to Ukraine.

@April Jones-Foston Was inline with WH policy? Did nothing wrong? When did your extensive investigation ended? Right after you turned off your TV?
Sen. Joe Manchin has been bought or threatened. Why do we keep sending people with weak characters to Washington?
Maybe we’re just basically stupid.
No he lives in a district filled with ignorant uneducated Trump supporters.
Hes a Democrat in WV. Theyre actually the more conservative party here.
I Think Trump Is A Relevant Witness
@Elaine Simons. would you understand the difference between commas and periods?
@Elaine Simons. huh he has no Balls for Clinton testified turd cultist.
Cares of the world…
You don’t have to be a witness at your own trial. In his case it’s almost entrapment to force a pathological liar on the stand.
Yes, lets bring in all of the Trump kids too!
You really want to bring in Barron?
@Cole Converse obviously, no one was referring to baron
@Skeave Had to ask. Comment said “All of Trump’s Kids” and no comment below clarified Barron.
@Cole Converse I suppose I should also say that Tiffany should be excluded too because she’s had nothing to do with Trump’s administration, not to mention he seems to forget about her.
yeah like they have or had experience WTF
Hunter Biden? Really? This guys is an embarrassment to his state.
@KB Peters you’re forgetting the part where joe Biden publicly bragged about withholding finding if they didn’t fire the prosecutor sniffing around his son and his corruption.
To say that Biden is a relevant witness is to say that Trump is actually concerned about corruption, which is joke to all Americans. A large majority of Americans believe that Trump is: a crook; encourages voter fraud and voter suppression; that he encourages international interference in American elections among other things. https://www.npr.org/2020/01/21/797101409/npr-poll-majority-of-americans-believe-trump-encourages-election-interference
@Steve Gillham *BUT NOTHING WAS WITHHELD* the ukraine got their money, they didn’t know it was considered to be up in the air. Nothing was given to trump in return. Where is the crime. Look beyond your partisan lenses, however hard it may be for you.
So is His Father Joe Biden embarrassment to his state.
Perhaps he should have been a juror he clearly doesnt understand what pertinent witness is
A pertinent witness is whomever the defense decides is pertinent. Also, when did the investigation take place that found hunter is not an appropriate witness?
@William Stewart its a Russian deflection to diminish Ukraine. Repugnants now love Russia over america.
@Wheatie Sweetie How could Ukraine be any less significant as is?
Carol Harris boom
Can we get English subtitles? Not everyone speaks Russian.
Clutchyfinger
That’s funny 😂😆😂
Ouch. 😬😬😬
Neither does Hunter Biden, Russian or Ukrainian 😂
ridiculous and pathetic… just because you don’t agree with someone…. really sad.
Ok Manchin let’s call your corrupt relatives as witnesses too starting with the EpiPen grifter
Same old Republican diversion.
“What about Hillary’s emails?”
His political career is through.
Darren Tobias Rod is a Fake Page Coward Trolling 🚨
her speeches nor her e-mails ever came out even after she promised to release her speeches….. so you’ll never actually know what she was saying to her friends about what she would do.
@Rod what also you should “get” after all the investigation (politically motivated) on Benghazi there was nothing found after 20 plus hours, or did you forget that Mr Smuglican?
@A Nomad ok so trump gets presidential privilege and hillary has to reveal all… while the senate GOP doesn’t want testimony? STFU
Manchin is a republican – he does not care about facts
Awwwwww…is one of da wibbies not towing the mine?
he s favor trump, joe,s not dem
I guess WVa is really that stupid
Still trying to figure out how this tool got himself elected while posing as a democrat…
West Virginia
@Wisconsin Farmer oh. right.
West Virginia party system views are still at their Lincoln/civil war views. Democratic party here is still very conservative.
Why is this guy still allowed to call himself a democrat? He’s voted for GOP BS so many times I can’t believe donny hasn’t invited him to the oval office!
