Manchin Didn’t Just Shiv Biden’s Agenda, He Whacked Biden’s Central Campaign Promise Too

[Obiwan]

There are plenty of empty shelves. In fact, there’s almost a camaraderie among shoppers as we lament to one another how much is missing.

Even in the early months of the pandemic, with businesses ground to a halt, the food and product supply was plentiful (except for the odd run on toilet paper. This tells me that the attempt to transform America into something closer to Venezuela is intentional, starting with the food supply.

But what the Democrats are failing to think about is the effect that the supply chain problems will have on THEM....

In the rural areas like where I live (primarily Republican), we have plenty of farmers, so we will have plenty of food (produce and meat) that we can get from our neighbors....

We also have an abundant supply of wood readily available for heat (if needed).....

On the other hand, without the trucks running, the Democrat-controlled cities will probably have a problem raising crops and grazing livestock on concrete and asphalt, and it won't take them long to burn the tires from their cars in a desperate attempt to stay warm when the overloaded power grid can't make up for the cuts the Vegetable is making to their supplies of natural gas and heating oil...

This should get interesting!!!!!

Here ya go from the U of M hospital system, Dec. 13th

Age 65 and over. A lot of this people have health conditions, preexisting conditions they are called. But you already know this, and yet you refuse to get vaccinated. You might be young and in prefect health and you may have a preexisting condition you don't know about.

According to the trucking industry, we are short 80,000 truckers now (contributing to the supply chain problems)...

And industry leaders are saying another 2.5 MILLION truckers will quit if Sleazy Joe's vaccine mandate goes through.....

I wonder how many Democrats will continue to support the Retard when their children start crying from hunger....

Seeing as how the OP referred to their dear leader as "“Status Quo Joe” Biden", I think some of them are starting to get it.

WTF?
Truck driver shortages have always been an issue.

Labor shortages have plagued the industry since the 1980s, when deregulation sparked a jump in the number of trucking companies. That pushed demand for drivers. The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration counted 5.7 million commercial motor vehicle drivers in the country in 2014, including 3.9 million with commercial driver’s licenses needed to operate tractor-trailers or other heavy-duty trucks.

Despite those numbers, the industry has about 48,000 fewer drivers than available driver jobs, according to a 2015 American Trucking Associations report. The ATA estimates that the industry will need 890,000 new drivers through 2025 to meet rising demand.


According to Driver Solutions, data from the American Trucking Association ATA) shows that there’s a need for about 100,000 new drivers in 2017, and the shortfall is already at 50,000. And it’s only going to get worse.

Against this backdrop is the growth of e-commerce, which puts even more pressure on the bulk transport and logistics industry. Amazon may have been the first major mover in this space, but now, nearly every brick and mortar retailer worth naming is getting into the e-comm game. As a result, there’s mounting pressure on parcel delivery companies as well as long and short haul freight carriers.

The ATA estimated more than a year ago that truck driver shortage could hit 175,000 by 2024.

Hold onto your hat, Snowflake.....

These are the very people the vaccines were MEANT TO PROTECT. And they do not. They have failed.

So you have had two vaccines and a booster. Right? And have not caught covid. Great for you. Those shots, we have no idea their long term effect. We do know the pharma co has immunity. Hmmmm

I have had none of these sketchy vaccines and I also have not caught covid. Huh. How does that happen Penelope?

Well it will be Manchins fault when the children's start crying their hungry. Republican children too in his state. I never see empty shelves at the stores.

That's on your mandates

 

[1srelluc]

Tater should send Manchin a thank you card as the dems were getting ready to step off a cliff and Manchin pulled them back.

 

[jknowgood]

I think things will be changing next year.

Yes for the better, we should win both houses easy.

What is happening now is democrat policies at work.

Yikes. It’s going to get even worse if Biden, and the People running him who want to crash the economy, gets his way.

Load up on frozen food and canned goods.

Manchin Didn’t Just Shiv Biden’s Agenda, He Whacked Biden’s Central Campaign Promise Too

If anyone should understand Joe Manchin’s motives for screwing average Americans, the environment, and our democracy itself, it should be “Status Quo Joe” Biden. Manchin’s political decisions, aside from being self-serving, are dictated by his true constituents. No, not the voters back home, his duty is to his high-powered political contributors.

Like the vast majority of Senate members, regardless of party affiliation, the needs of the folks back home are rarely a priority, except those folks back home that head major corporations or whose personal wealth is in the ten-figure range... or larger.

Biden is no stranger to opposing bills to aid working families, the poor, the elderly, etc., he spent his career in the Senate serving the same “constituency” as Joe Manchin. As was stated by AOC, Manchin’s plans to kill legislation beneficial to average Americans was clear months ago. So no one aware of Manchin’s personal business holdings and where he placed his political loyalties should be surprised by anything Manchin says or does.

GOP leaders should thank Manchin publicly for his consistent opposition, since he was able to do what Mitch McConnell could not.

how are the children going to be hungry? On top of food stamps, low-income get $300 per child per month. if you’re middle income, you might not get food stamps, but you’ll still get $300 per child per month.

Jusr how much of senior citizens’ money do you want to give to middle-income parents?

Biden's was elected on two "promises," neither having anything to do with BBB.

Promise #1: I'm not Donald Trump.
Promise #2: I'm not Bernie Sanders.

He lied with #2.

Thank God Manchin has the balls to stand up to those who would destroy the country!

The last reported Michigan data on hospitalizations was Nov 30th and had data from approx. mid-Nov. ONE THIRD of hospitalized Covid patients were fully vaccinated.

Then they stopped reporting those numbers. Gee Penelope I wonder why???

The 'deep state' of course.

 

[Jets]

Quelle Surprise.

Sen Manchin was always going to vote against this legislation.

Senator Joe Manchin raised over $400,000 from donors in the energy industry in the third quarter, including some from donors that normally give to Republicans, according to his latest filing with the Federal Election Commission.

Manchin, who is from West Virginia, also owns millions of dollars in coal stocks. West Virginia is the second-largest producer of coal in the US, according to the West Virginia Office of Energy.

Manchin received $74,600 from the employees and political action committee of energy company Energy Transfer Partners, according to Bloomberg and FEC documents.

The company's co-founder, Kelcy Warren, donated the maximum of $5,800-$2,900 to Manchin for his primary and general election campaigns, Bloomberg reported. Warren also hosted a fundraiser for former President Donald Trump and gave $13.7 million to GOP candidates and causes in 2020.

Donors over constituents.

Jan 06, 2021 · It turns out Mississippi is the poorest state in the country. Mississippi is having a rough week ...

Rank	State	Population	Median Income
1	Mississippi	2,984,418	$45,081
2	West Virginia	1,817,305	$46,711
3	New Mexico	2,092,454	$49,754

if you are worried where money comes from, you'd be worried about China and the Biden's.

Manchin is blocking the people who want to destroy the country by instituting inflation-spiking policies and moving more people onto the public dole. We now have half the people on welfare, when you add in all the new people on government child support, with people refusing to work.

Thank you, G-d.

The people in the rural areas will make it fine....

We have plenty of farmers here (some of which even process their own livestock for sale to the public), the game is plentiful (most evenings I could shoot a deer within 100 feet of my front porch), and we have plenty of wood for heat....

In the words of Hank Williams Jr, "COUNTRY BOYS CAN SURVIVE!!!!"

But the downside is the fact that, without the truckers, a lot of our crops will have to be left to rot in the fields if we can't transport them to the cities....

THOSE will be the people that will really suffer from the Democrats' policies....
