@Sen_JoeManchin @SenatorSinema this. You say you only listen to your constituents so Don’t ask us for money next time you run. Your votes don’t just affect your constituents. We are all in this together. For better or worse. Don’t make it worse.

If the democrats don't deliver, they will be butchered in the mid-terms - and Trump will be back in 2024. God forbid.

The Republicans never keep their word to Dems so Dems need grow a set of balls and get the 2 dissenting Dems back into line. Fuck the Republican Party for ever more
