Has West Virginia Senator Joe Manchin finally had enough of the Democrat Party? The moderate Democrat has raised concern before that he’s considering switching parties but has maintained he has no plans to do so. However, Manchin’s choice to sit with Republicans instead of his own Democrat colleagues during Biden’s State of the Union address can’t help but trigger speculation he’s considering a change.

The Washington Examiner reports:
The West Virginia senator instead sat between GOP Mississippi Sen. Roger Wicker and Utah Republican Sen. Mitt Romney, directly behind Iowa Sen. Joni Ernst.
As Biden gave his address, Manchin remained seated and refrained from clapping as others applauded the president for lauding items within his Build Back Better bill, including the expanded Child Tax Credit that expired in December, which Manchin opposed.
Following the address, Romney told reporters he “asked” Manchin to sit with him. Manchin chimed in, we’re “showing unity, working together. Showing the whole world we’re together in standing behind Ukraine.”
“Sen. Manchin sat with his colleague Sen. Romney to remind the American people and the world that bipartisanship works and is alive and well in the U.S. Senate,” said Sam Runyon, communications director for the West Virginia Democrat.
Manchin has a history of breaking with more radical members of his party over policy decisions, the West Virginia Senator famously refused to vote in favor of Biden’s agenda which caused many in his party to call for his ouster.
Just do it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You and Jessica need to get together and panhandle on the same corner.
Just wondering …did Piglosi tear up HIS SOU address behind his back?? But just take
a look at her face…she is gushing !!!!!
The frozen fake smile on Pelosi’s face is the expression she uses when she is desperate knowing her party is being flushed down the proverbial toilet. She is in desperation mode because she realizes she and her marxist party have lost the confidence of Democrats, Republicans, Independents and the rest of planet earth, since everything the Dems touch and will touch immediately turns to crap and no wonder, it is not only bad for America, it is bad for the world! All Pelosi needed was to have worn a little cheerleader uniform to complete her phony show! The way she kept jumping up applauding trying to keep the room on their feet was hysterical! The crap show is over Pelosi, the world sees the Dems for the failure you are and you are going to be destroyed in the midterms! What will Pelosi do then? Oh, the drama!
how can you tell with droopy face – the face lift is falling down
No she didn’t because she was too busy kowtowing to Biden after he sniffed her hair.
And, Manchin had on a red tie!
Yes, but sitting with Romney – the big Rhino !
maybe they just switch parties..don’t change the count but he’s for the people
😂😆😂😆
In an organization where half of the members don’t just wish to defeat the other half, but want to absolutely destroy them, there can be no bipartisanship. The Democrats in Congress want to pass the “For the People” Act, which would remove any chance of a Republican ever winning an office which affected the course of the country again. Then they want to eliminate the filibuster which would eliminate any minority input. They want to pack the Supreme Court and for good measure they want to add Washington DC and Puerto Rico as new states-giving themselves four more Senators and a couple of representatives. Where in this Democrat wish list is there room for bipartisanship?
The question is: Why is ANY politician a DemonCrap?
To be a DemonCrap, you have to :
Hate the USA and want to radically change it into a socialist dump
Hate White European people and work effortlessly to punish them.
Promote racism against Whites.
Make Whites pay money for what happened hundreds of years ago and give the money to Blacks.
Raise taxes on anyone who works or has money and give money to people around the world and encourage uneducated third world people to enter the US at government expense forever.
Eradicate any and all contributions to the world made by Whites and magnify the contributions made by third world peoples.
Defund and eliminate police.
Encourage crime by not arresting or prosecuting criminals, and allow Black criminals to do whatever they want to.
There are many other evil desires m plans, and intentions of this corrupt anti-American political party, too numerous to add here.
To sum it all up, you must be a liberal.
Well, while a strong statement sitting with Romney still makes him look like what we fear he might be if he switches parties – A RHINO just like Romney
That’s my worry too living here in Utah and KNOWING Romney who hates America because they wisely rejected him for president.
How did Romney win. Find out what kind of voting machines are being used.
RINO = Republican in name only. No “h”. Romney invited Manchin to sit with him. Joe’s better than Romney in lots of ways.
If Joe makes the switch it will be a black eye to the democrats which is good. However will he join the establishment republicans of the republican party then? If so he will not be 100% asset to the conservatives movement. He will become part of the big talk do nothing republican party then.
At this point in time he’s still better than Lisa Murkowski or Susan Collins who both support abortion.
He sat next to a POS RINO a useless backstabbing ahole who should be kicked out of office
I hope not…I like Joe M. right where he is…He is a thorn in the lefts side…If Joe M. goes GOP the left will find a bigger left leaning nut…Joe is as close to a moderate as you can get on there side…
Nancy made a real fool of herself last night. No class. As for Manchin sitting with Rino Romney. Makes me nervous. We are known by the company we keep.
The speech was nothing but smoke and mirrors! He couldn’t even read from the teleprompter without stumbling. Harris and Pelosi were pathetically hilarious to watch!
I loved it when Pelosi was rubbing her knuckles together like she spotted a child to eat.
not getting my hopes up
if manchin doesn’t want to be on the side of evil anymore, then he should switch to the republican side.. we don’t use chaos violence, fake news, lies, cheating etc to get our point out there – just plain old work ethics and truth
