I don't know....there's just something about the guy that I don't trust.

During an interview aired on Thursday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) stated that over the next two years, he wants to make sure that the Inflation Reduction Act is implemented properly and he is concerned that whatever government agency is in charge of the tax incentives in the legislation is “going to interpret it differently than what the intent was.”
Co-host Joe Kernen asked, “In the next two years, do we should do another series of bills, now you said this — the IRA’s paid for. But do you think we should do a lot in the next — it’s not going to be possible with the House, probably. But are you ready to take a break and get from 120 –?”
Manchin cut in to respond, “I’m ready to make sure that what we’ve done is done the right way and the intent of the piece of legislation, if the IRA is [done] the right way and basically we make sure it’s being — right now, I’m concerned, whether it be Treasury, whether it be whoever’s — with all the tax — different incentives, are they going to interpret it differently than what the intent was

The stupid sonovabitch voted for that steaming POS bill. He needs to be booted from the Senate.
CYA politics.
Oh, he’s “concerned”. This “raises questions.” Blah blah.
If Manchin gets voted out next election, he can always read for the part of Captain Renault in a Casablanca remake! It’s good to hear he’s “Shocked”!
LOL, I guess algor let the cat out of the bag and embarrassed Manchin.
This guy. It’s a miracle he saved the filibuster. If hadn’t the disaster of the last 2 years would have been exponentially worse if you can imagine it.
Alibi Ike Manchin.
The proper translation of Manchin’s concern is that the bureacrats will do exactly as Biden-Obama-Pelosi-Schumer expects them to do and not as Machin pretended to believe they would do.
“...“going to interpret it differently than what the intent was.” ...”
Joe, Joe, Joe! You knew that to be true when you voted for the bill - just like we all did! You knew up front that bill would damage this country immeasurably and yet you voted for it. Shame, shame, shame!
I don't know....there's just something about the guy that I don't trust.
Our downfall is at least partly rooted in electing people that can’t think in complete sentences. People like this who could not possibly be hired because they are obviously not very smart.
More talk for the cameras. Joe knew exactly what he was voting for.
Great photo story. It would have been even better if he had on the same suit, shirt and tie in both photos.
“Our downfall is at least partly rooted in electing people that can’t think in complete sentences. People like this who could not possibly be hired because they are obviously not very smart.”
Disagree. They are very smart in moving their agenda forward, and that’s the problem.
Maybe you should have written a better bill, dumbass.
Oh Joe, you didn’t realize you were giving our money to thugs? Just pure pathetic!!!
Gee, ya think?
Damage control. He made it happen, now he’s going to say it wasn’t his fault. He’s using the same excuse all commies use when yet another of their commie utopias descend into chaos and failure: “It would have worked if they did it right but they didn’t”
He'll need more practice to serve up a crisper word salad then our current VP.... She has it down to a science..
