Manchin dismissively calls Sanders a ‘self-declared independent socialist’
#1
Bernie Sanders is an idiot to think that voters in West Virginia are going to put any political pressure on Joe Manchin to support Joe Biden's socialist agenda. He did Manchin a political favor by writing an editorial in the Charleston Gazette criticizing Manchin. Now, if Hillary and Obama wrote editorials attacking Manchin, his Senate seat would be secured for life.

The West Virginia Democrat fired back after Sanders published an op-ed in Manchin's home state, calling for support for the Biden economic agenda

U.S. Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., responded Friday to criticism from U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., derisively declaring that he wasn't going to take marching orders from a socialist.

"Congress should proceed with caution on any additional spending and I will not vote for a reckless expansion of government programs," Manchin wrote in a statement. "No op-ed from a self-declared Independent socialist is going to change that."

Earlier, Sanders had penned an op-ed for a newspaper in Manchin's home state, calling for every Democrat to support President Biden's Build Back Better agenda.

"Poll after poll shows overwhelming support for this legislation," Sanders wrote in the op-ed for the Charleston Gazette-Mail. "Yet, the political problem we face is that in a 50-50 Senate we need every Democratic senator to vote 'yes,' We now have only 48. Two Democratic senators remain in opposition, including Sen. Joe Manchin."

Sanders can't open his mouth or write a paragraph without blatant outrageous lies spewing out. But he counts on enough ignorant people believing him.
