By the time joe Manchin and krysten siemna do change their minds about the filibuster, I probably would be dead

How are they supposed to do that when two of their own stand in the way?

They can't, which is why they won't get rid of the Filibuster. Do you have any idea how exhausting it is to come up with excuses for why they can't get shit done with a majority? They WANT to lose seats in 2022. It's so much easier to do nothing when they have the GOP to blame!!

The point is to appear as if they want to stand up for the people. Not ACTUALLY do it. They run their campaigns with the same $ that GOP do, through many of the same corporations. I can’t seem to figure out if you’re naive or trolling with these questions.
