An MSNBC reporter said Tuesday night that Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., told her that he could decide to switch to the Republican Party if Trump wins and the Senate is close.
"There was a conversation I just got off the phone with Sen. Joe Manchin, because I've been picking up a lot of intense speculation that in the event there was a 50-50 Senate, he might be somebody who would switch parties, potentially become an independent," reporter Kasie Hunt said.
"I have to tell you, I couldn't get a firm commitment from him that he was definitely going to be a Democrat for the next two years," she said. "He says, 'no, I'm not going to say that.'"
They just switch to undermine the repubs and try to get liberal stuff through and water down bills.
Dont accept them in. Do not recognize them.
I’ve never liked this guy. I guess its good that he’s another GOP vote but he stabbed WVA voters in the back over and over.
Might as well, Joe
We’ve been tellin you for some time Dims don’t give a rat’s behind about your constituents
Not sure if we want him.
BTW Donald Trump is the bravest, toughest sonofabitch I’ve evah seen.
I don’t think we will be needing you, Joe. We’ll keep your resume on file, though. Don’t call us. we’ll call you.
“BTW Donald Trump is the bravest, toughest sonofabitch Ive evah seen.”
..
Yeah. What we need is another RINO candidate blowing in the wind. Just caucus with the democrats, along with your new found friend Linda.
I say give him a chance. He’s been right on some issues.
Maybe there are times when he voted with the dems just to get along.
He’s a useless idiot who managed to fool some of the stupider WV that he would help bring back coal jobs.
He should be sitting in a jail cell with Hitlery.
They threw everything at him. Everything. I hope McAuliffe is now having an Uh oh moment over 60,000 felons voting.
Sometimes that ONE vote in the Senate can mean the whole world to the country. It’s kinda’ good to know that a weasel dem might be willing to do what some weasel Rs have done to us recently. We should willingly take it and enjoy watching the liberals heads explode. They deserve it big time.
Trump...what a scrapper...
TONIGHT,MILLIONS OF HARDWORKING AMERICANS CAN SMILE AND SAY,YEAH THE LITTLE GUY CAN TAKE ON GOLIATH AND WIN....
you allow them to join but you don’t trust them until they start coming through on close votes and even then you don’t give them any power positions until they survive at least one election as a republican. they have to prove themselves and prove that they have some sort of integrity because joining a party because the party you are in does not have the presidency is an indicator to me that the person might have integrity issues.
if he had integrity he would of switched before the election not after.
TRUMP WINS....Against the dems,Hollywood ,the media and his own party...He took them all on and beat the living crap out of each one...Figuratively speaking of course..
On Point!!! They will just become RINOs! Bring in more Conservatives and Constitutionalist!!
Do it jerk, or lose your job next time.
Oh, like we don’t have enough RINOs already.
Swell!
