Some how you just accused me of liking the Trump tax cuts...Pulled that out of thin air eh....

As usual, disagree with a dem on something and a straw man argument follows and misrepresentation... "You must be a Trump Lover" "MAGA idiot'" No, I disagree on a point of discussion...So maybe not you but there was definite inference on your part...

Manchins yacht cost him 250k and is valued as you say,,,it is his home in DC which is much cheaper than most spend in dc I would imagine...

And you still walked around the whole point of BBB funding, but I guess some conformation biased article is better than the CBO report that states exactly what I said....

But I do agree with you on flaunting wealth, not a good look but you hold him to a different standard...Back to double standards...

Progressive dems lied and are lying about Manchin and BBB...Fortunately they will now have to do it in a more transparent manner....

Jeez. munchkins even more a moronic dinosaur than even I thought. He's clearly two faced. Not that this is unusual for congresspeople.

According to a Washington Post report, Manchin’s opposition to the bill is based on the size and scale of its climate measures and his disapproval of extending paid leave and the expanded monthly child tax credit of up to $300 per child, which expired this month.

Manchin reportedly also privately raised concerns with his colleagues that a provision of the bill giving four weeks of paid family and medical leave to all US workers would be abused by some to go on deer hunting trips. Manchin also reportedly worried that the expanded child tax credit was being used by parents to buy drugs.

In West Virginia, older residents often go without dental care, and a quarter of people 65 and older have no natural teeth, the highest rate of any state in the country. But a powerful senator from West Virginia, Joe Manchin, has rebuffed efforts to add a dental benefit to Medicare.
