If West Virginia can afford $11/hr., anywhere in this country can afford that bump in pay. Nowhere in my post was I talking about $15/hr.... -
What’s odd about your argument is you say Joe Manchin is one of the problems in this minimum wage discussion. Joe Manchin is a representative of probably the poorest state in the Union, and the main conduit between the two political parties. If you can’t take his word for it, why are you...Leave a comment:

And if West Virginia isn’t the floor when it comes to wages and cost-of-living, it’s damn near close. If Manchin thinks West Virginia can afford $11/hr., basically anywhere in this country can....Leave a comment:

Well, shoot. I was looking forward to the Manchin/Sinema showdown a couple weeks from now, and again this fall....Leave a comment:

I’m shocked a Trump supporter advocated cancelling any kind of debt, seeing as that balloons the deficit or something, something...
I agree with your last paragraph, including on using two l’s in the word* cancelling....Leave a comment:

Biden isn’t against student debt forgiveness. He’s just against cancelling $50,000 worth of it. He said he’s on board with $10,000, but wants to see if Congress can pass it first. Since we all know they won’t, unless that somehow can be included in a budget reconciliation bill,...Leave a comment:

Does Joe Manchin respond well to being called out publicly? Based on what we know about him, and how he’s responded in the past, I’m thinking probably not.
I agree that everything feasible under a budget reconciliation bill should be included in the House’s bill, but I doubt...Leave a comment:

Looks like Romney/Cotton’s minimum wage increase of $10 by 2025 is paired with shoving the long d-ck of the law up undocumented immigrants’ a—holes, so that probably won’t gain much traction. That said, I like the look of Romney’s childcare plan. Maybe combine that with...Leave a comment:

Of course it’s hypocrisy. Tanden constantly attacked “snowflake” Sanders, and I highly doubt Bernie would ever vote against her for that reason, assuming she even gets a vote, like Collins did. Or Manchin.
Haaland, on the other hand, seems qualified, and doesn’t have the...Leave a comment:

Clearly I’m being optimistic, but I think he’ll vote for her. If he doesn’t, I understand politically, but yeah, I’ll be upset with him. That said, if he comes out against her, maybe Murkowski will help out this time? I guess we’ll see how this plays out.Leave a comment:

Of course she’s likelier to change, because she has the constituency that gives her breathing room to change. You’ve been saying that for months, and I agree with you. Right now though, she’s frustrating, for me at least. Manchin’s constituency makes McConnell’s look like...Leave a comment:

Way too much credit? He’s a sh-tty Democrat. That said, I think he supports Biden’s bill just fine. He voted to advance the process of passing it via budget reconciliation. If he hated the bill, he could have tanked it right then and there by voting against the reconciliation process, and...Leave a comment:

Not only that, but Manchin’s expected score is WAY lower than it should be. Only Tester’s expected score is lower. Collins, on the other hand, has a higher expected score than McConnell, which basically means she’s way more conservative than she needs to be in the state she represents....Leave a comment:

I think most of us on here who consider ourselves actual Democrats are going to have issues with plenty of Manchin’s decisions. It’s frustrating as sh-t that we have to rely on him being our weakest link, rather than Sinema, Kelly, Feinstein, or King. Personally, I think Sinema is more frustrating...Leave a comment:
