"It will be interesting to see how Slo Joe reacts once he is back in the states. Will he have Manchin over to the White House to bribe him? To threaten him? To beg him?"
Yesterday, in the midst of hearing about our President having a bathroom emergency while meeting with the Pope, and then going nappy nap while at the COP 26 meeting, we were enlightened by a moment of absolute clarity. Really? By whom? By Joe - not Joe the "nappy and crappy" - Joe Manchin. Joe Manchin, whom along with Kristen Sinema, seem to be holding all the trump cards in a game with a very large pot of cash.
Some think that Joe Manchin is nothing more than a kingmaker, and he is now making himself a king. Others think that Manchin is nothing more than a human anachronism. A throwback Democrat, when Democrats had a lick of common sense. When I heard his presser yesterday, I almost had tears of joy running down my cheeks. Manchin really wants to know what is in this "Human Infrastructure" bill, and how much it will really cost. And why are we doing this, initiating more entitlements, when our current entitlements are on financial life support.
Unless one Republican gets round heels, and agrees to support this "Human Infrastructure" bill, Manchin might have just delivered a dagger in the heart to the President's dream bill. Not sad about that one. Not a bit. I know the Squad as well as the rest of the socialists hope that a piano falls on Manchin's head, but the damage has already been done. Manchin spoke truth. Truth to power. And sometimes, the truth hurts.
I continue to have my fingers and my toes crossed that either Manchin or Sinema (or both) decide to change parties. That would put an end to this reign of terror, that Biden has unleashed on our country. It would bring part of what is expected in 2023, into the Senate right now. It would neuter all the crap Ms. Nancy comes up with in the House. Biden would then go back to being a total figurehead. He could stay in the White House, close to his bathroom and bed. Life will go back to being semi-normal.
It will be interesting to see how Slo Joe reacts once he is back in the states. Will he have Manchin over to the White House to bribe him? To threaten him? To beg him? If I were Manchin, I would look Biden square in those squinty little eyes and say, "Back off Mr. President - I am about an inch away from changing parties right now." That would shock Biden so much, he might truly have yet another bathroom emergency.
On another subject, today is election day in Minneapolis. The day the good citizens might vote to get rid of the cops. BTW - did you know yesterday, there were six carjacking events in just two hours? Can't wait to see how this town looks when there are no cops. Just saying...
