    He might run for President with No Labels and hand the presidency to Trump.

      Why would that benefit Trump? Outside of WV, no one’s fooled him by. Everyone knows he’s a selfish conservative. He’d split the conservative vote if anything.

        Oh, we know full well who he is and who he represents (himself and his financial interests). The problem is that we have no other democratic candidate who could possibly beat whichever Republican ghoul makes it to the general election.

        We’re kinda stuck with him and have been for years. If we voted him out, his replacement would be solidly red and worse.

      Extremely unlikely, he uses tough rhetoric because he knows who his WV voters are, but in the end Manchin is solidly pro-Biden
