Manchin Again!

Like Kamala Harris needed this racist Joe Manchin endorsing her.

Democrats have a bunch of racists in their party. 

Joe Manchin, John Fetterman, Dean Phillips, Debbie Wasserman Schultz, Brad Sherman, Jared Golden, Jared Moskowitz, Ritchie Torres, Kyrsten Sinema, Josh Gottheimer, Brad Schneider and Greg Landsman are examples of racists within the party.

We cannot allow the Democratic Party to inherit racism and bigotry.

If Kamala Harris becomes the next president of the United States, I hope she never attends the funerals of Joe Manchin, Kyrsten Sinema and John Fetterman when they pass away.

I hope their deaths will be ignored in the junk food media. Of course, I could care less about how people think now. May Manchin rest in piss.

Hopefully, he will die like Joe Lieberman. 

I swear the Democrats need to move to the left and expel all the distractions.

I have a feeling that if Sen. Jon Tester (D-MT) and Rep. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) win their senate bids, they will join Fetterman in stalling a Harris agenda.

I have feeling that Fetterman will work with Donald J. Trump if he does become president again.

Sen. Joe Manchin (I-WV) announced he will not endorse Vice President Kamala Harris for president. 

He also announced he will not change the filibuster rules to codify abortion rights which President Joe Biden vowed to push in his lame duck session.

Earlier, Manchin was more vociferous about Harris' announcement that she'd be in favor of scrapping the chamber's 60-vote filibuster to pass a law reviving the abortion protections that existed under Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that was scrapped in 2022.

"Shame on her," Manchin, who is retiring and left the Democratic Party earlier this year, told CNN. "She knows the filibuster is the Holy Grail of democracy. It's the only thing that keeps us talking and working together."

Sinema, another retiring Democrat-turned-independent and filibuster defender, also panned the idea, saying it would open the door to further restrictions by a future Republican Senate majority.

October Suprise is a coming.

"To state the supremely obvious, eliminating the filibuster to codify Roe v Wade also enables a future Congress to ban all abortion nationwide," Sinema posted on X. "What an absolutely terrible, shortsighted idea."

Harris, who along with President Joe Biden, had supported changing Senate rules to help restore Roe v. Wade's protections, which allow abortions until a fetus is viable. She reiterated her stance in an interview with Wisconsin Public Radio.

"I've been very clear: I think we should eliminate the filibuster for Roe,' Harris said. "Fifty-one votes would be what we need to actually put back in law the protections for reproductive freedom and for the ability of every person and every woman to make decisions about their own body and not have their government tell them what to do."

Harris' comments come as she pivots to the center to win over undecided voters, but abortion remains a key issue that fires up the Democratic base and helped the vice president find her footing in office. She has been particularly vocal on the issue after reports of two Georgia women's deaths seemingly due to delayed treatment after undergoing medication abortions.

Still, it's unclear if Democrats would have the votes to pass any abortion protections, as their 51-49 majority hangs by a thread this November due to a formidable map that has them defending seats in several purple states and the red states of Montana and Ohio.

Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer was circumspect on what kind of legislation Democrats would push, only saying Tuesday that "it's something our caucus will discuss in the next session of Congress."

Former President Donald Trump celebrated Manchin's saying he wouldn't endorse Harris.

"Congratulations to Senator Joe Manchin for not endorsing Radical Kamala Harris because of her DEATH WISH for the Filibuster and the Rule of Law. Joe knows that only the 45th President of the United States, Donald J. Trump, can protect our Country, our People, and Make America Great Again," Trump posted on his social media platform.
