Why is Joe Manchin the Chairman of the Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee, given that he stands for everything such a Committee should protect us from? @chuckschumer

Blows mind ! Mnuchin is a Republican disguised horribly as a Democrat
Because the energy lobbyists go to his office first with the candy, then call Chuck over. Chuck loves the candy so Chuck gives Joe the main job. Simple for even a 5yr old to understand.
Inquiring minds want to know that too.
Because he can defect & help the turtle control the Senate?
One of countless avoidable errors by Democratic Party leadership.
