Political Power

How Joe Manchin got so much power.

One politician in congress has the breaks on Biden’s entire agenda. It’s been reported that negotiations between the White House and Joe Manchin a West Virginia Democrat, are at a stand still. One senator is standing in the way of having Biden’s build back broke bill pass, the good news, Manchin is seeking re-election, what’s the best way to make that happen? Do what Manchin is doing, work for his constituents, the people on the ground that sent him to Washington to slap box with government.

West Virginia is a red state that Trump won significantly in 2020, the people that will send him back to office won’t if he plays along with the radical spending spree the rest of the party wants to take from us.

Manchin effect might wake some of the center democrats to rethink their strategy on passing anything Nancy Pelosi tells them to.

Senator Graham said on The Tucker show that Biden’s Build Back Better wishlist is likely dead and gone, and he might be right. Shortly after Biden failed to secure Manchin’s vote the party changed course to push election reform claiming the dire need. Same thing they said about the BBB.

So it turns out, senators could wield tremendous power over the sitting President regardless of political affiliation, if they simply work for the people that elected them.
