Sure. He's licking his chops over what Republicans will be able to do, with no filibuster stopping them, the next time they get control of Congress.

the right to vote is sacred. the filibuster is not

I saw Manchin on TV the other day saying, ‘I’m not going to be for reconciliation because I’m considerate of my Republicans.’

Oh yeah? What about your Democrats?

the filibuster is like the constitution, it changes, it’s a living document. Times change, situations change. Slavery was constitutional

"Manchin reminds me of my days in my grandpa's farm

one day i'd worked hard and gotten a full pail of milk from Bessie the Cow, but i wasn't paying attention, and old Bessie swung her shit-smeared tail through that bucket of milk.

you work hard and get a good policy going, and they swing a shit-smeared tail through it" - Sen Jon Tester (D-Montana)

the sacred right to vote is 10 trillion times more important than Senate procedure

Senate rules come and go, the right to vote is the bedrock of democracy

Does this means Joe won't support a return to the talking filibuster so that idiots can't simply phone it in?
I've about had it with that moron.
He's a likable enough guy, but sure eems like he's just being an asshole because the power of his swing vote has gone to his head.
Time to primary both him and Sinema
