I guess the question is how badly do you need your job and what sacrifices you are willing to make to keep it. Are you willing to give up any degree of ethics and morality just so you can get re-elected. Compare Manchin to Liz Cheney. The latter who I really don't care much for based on her history. The former is just holding the country hostage to preserve his job. At least Liz has drawn that line in the sand and won't support a lie. Meanwhile Manchin won't do shit to help anyone if it costs him a re-election.
