Plus Biden just gave Manchin's wife a 200k/year job. Tough to mess with the missus' fun money.

He still blew up his background check bill after that.

Manchin is liable to get shot in WV for going too heavily in favor of the democrats. He can get away with shit like infrastructure since WV desperately needs it, but not this IMO. Putting pressure on him needs to be done.

Manchin and Sinema are a no on nuking the filibuster. So as of right now, this bill is DOA in the Senate since you need 10 Republicans to vote on it to become a reality.

Do the math. This is just theatrics from the Dems. This is Dems' version of Rand Paul introducing a bill that goes nowhere.
