Sen. Manchin Calls For Bipartisanship On Covid Relief Plan | Morning Joe | MSNBC
He’s a Republican not Democrat
@Claressa Lucas I agree. Europe and Canada do not limit unemployment benefits. You stay on them until you get another job. Canada gives $2000 a month to every adult in addition to unemployment until pandemic ends. Same with most of Europe. I heard Germany gives $7,000 pandemic relief. What happened to Universal Health care that was promised? Yes, we need statehood for the territories and D.C. We need to pass a voter rights act and we need to add justices to the Supreme Court so they don’t vote voter rights down. I do think the people of West Virginia will be outraged if Manchin holds up stimulus when the REPUBLICAN governor is on TV BEGGING Manchin for relief and to go big. They will remember and vote him out, probably for a Republican. I would rather have that Republican Governor in Manchin’s seat. Maybe he will run. He seems to care what happens to the people. Manchin cares but he is way, way out of touch, when he insists a family of four working 40 hour week for 11 dollars an hour should do just fine, LOL….LMAO.
@K M But…. McConnell is NOT majority leader, Schumer is! Manchin is standing DIRECTLY in the way of passing the stimulus. He is working with the GOP to cut it way down
@kingsboro1 Hey, let’s try to get that REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR to run against Manchin for his seat. He cares about people. He would have voted with the Dems to pass that bill. Let Manchin go back to being governor. It’s a good job for penny pinchers.
@Jan Roach AMEN!! If WV could get a Republican like Kinsinger or Romney, we’d all be better off.
@Jason Boyce – That’s not true. Read up on the Dakotas, 1889.
This guy is the biggest problem Dems have. Maybe he just likes the attention.
Manchin is a Trump RepubliKKKan, go back and listen to Manchin’s empty words.
He is a Democratic senator, who manages to get reelected in the fourth most conservative state in the country, over and over. He votes with Democrats 75% of the time. He’s not a problem, he’s one of the Democratic party’s biggest assets. Without him, McConnell would still control the Senate.
Manchin’s terrible.
A scorpion who stings you as he talks to you smoothly…the worst kind.
The conversation has already been had and I see you won’t talk about how you feel about my vice-president neither.
Why didn’t anyone ask him his governor said that this bill needs to pass and pass now!
Why is he even a democrat
Why do you think Republicans will see the needs of people,, out of some moral decency.. Wake up
Rich people love keeping poor people poor.. S.A.M.F. right here…
This Republican needs replacing by an actual Democrat.
@Paul Robert He’s more of a Brotherhood of Mutants sorta guy, like Toad.
Too bad he won in WV because of being a DINO. He represents Republicans in the state.
@Paul Robert Making him a liability more than an asset. I just hope the Democrats pick up more senate seats in 2022 and the House remains under Democrat control.
@Eugene Chong haha
@Kimberly Galanti u cute
How would he like 11 dollars an hour.
The bills might have been bipartisan, but the ones that got the most money was the 1% instead of lower and middle class regular Americans
Having the Mnuchin Treasury Department in charge of distribution contributed a lot to the money being diverted to the top earners instead of those who really needed the help. There was a lot of money left from the Paycheck Protection Plan that Mnuchin refused to disperse, and he refused to allow an accounting of where the money that was spent actually went.
@Kristen Rdesinski You are 100% right with your comments, too bad that only crooks and thieves have access to the money for the less fortunate in America as they make themselves richer and richer and to make matters worse they no longer even pay taxes thanks to the Republicans
It’s time we get behind another candidate because Manchin is unpredictable and can’t be trusted
So you want a Republican to replace him? You want McConnell to control the Senate again?
Petition to recall this DINO and watch him sing a different tune a second later.
Don’t open that Pandora box. West virgins will elect a Qanon GOP senator.
So you want a Republican to replace him? You want McConnell to control the Senate again?
We really need to get rid of this man. There are far too many Republicans masquerading as Democrats in the party.
I really hope his constituents remember this and vote him out
This is what they want.
@Deborah Freedman No
@Deborah Freedman, He must have been a slave master in another life, to tell people they ought to be grateful for $11.00 per hour and people would be stupid to accept it.
Manchin needs to help the people of WV,not protect his donor’s profit.
Minchin is a fool in his own mind do he remember what the Republican done in past years and he should go retire.
And here my friends, is the man that is going to cause us innumerable headaches and suffering for the next 2 yrs. Mark my words. He will stop ANY progress.
Send him home!!!
Simple solution for congresswoman Cheney: SWITCH PARTIES.
Honestly, “Sen. Manchin calls for more bipartisanship,” should be the title of a SNL skit.😅
The West Virginia Governor said they need to go big and he’s doing the best job at Covid in America.
