What is it going to take to get Joe Manchin out of his bipartisanship stance when it comes to voter suppression laws? I would think that this would be a no brainer on his part to protect democracy? I suppose he doesn't see it as that and is otherwise convinced these voter suppression laws are not suppressive. I cannot fathom his thinking and at this point he needs to have his feet held to the fire for him to explain to us why he isn't concerned about voter suppression? I am sure the forces that be are working on him now to get him onboard with the rest of the democratic caucus but they are not moving fast enough!
The work needs to be done now before any more time is lost on the soul crushing republican side. Joe Manchin is a democrat and he needs to be fully aware of his effect on 100's of millions of citizens here in America. Because any vote denied is a loss for all of us. We all need to participate if democracy is to work. I just have no further words to express my incredulity with Joe Manchin and his posturing for political favor. This time will pass shortly and his antics will either break the democratic party's back or reinforce our back with solid federal legislation. It is really all down to him.
The other less known democratic moderates will come along without the ego that Manchin is exposing so he really needs to make his demands within the framework of the legislation and pass the final product or explain to all of America why he deems democracy saving legislation is not worthy of our society. He has put himself into a conundrum of a situation and he needs to extricate himself before the anxieties and anger begin to boil over onto our finest hour in American societal shaping political opportunity. Do you hear me Joe Manchin? Shit or get off the pot and let's keep this thing rolling!
