But Manchin has maintained a base of support in the state, and despite facing attacks from all sides, he has managed to keep winning reelection to the Senate, most recently in 2018. On Capitol Hill, he chairs the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee and is a member of the Senate Democratic leadership team.
And that fatass greedster is on the board of at least three energy and coal companies along with his own personal companies of coal processing and delivery, as well as land leases for coal companies I believe. That alone should disqualify him from any committees tied to energy and resources. Massive conflict of interest and there is documentation of munchkins voting on energy bills or not voting when it protected his company and donors. And cinema is right there with him with oil and pharma.
Between munchkin and cinema, they are at or near the top for total pac take from energy and pharma donors. Top 5 or better.
munchkin is a greedy human cardboard, a facade of a person acting like he cares about people. While his state is second from last in employment, wages and health care, and top three in welfare. While he lives on a yacht and drives 80 grand cars. He doesn't pay any appreciable property tax living on the water.
