Well, howdy there internet people? Let's bow again. So today we are going to talk

about Senator McConnell and Senator Manchin and some friction that has

developed in the Senate over what might happen in West Virginia.

So to remind everybody, Senator Manchin is kind of a Democrat.

He is a member of the Democratic Party.

And he has done pretty well in West Virginia Virginia which is a predominantly red state however now

he has an expected opponent in the next election who is incredibly popular.

Now McConnell, he is, you know, McConnell, somebody who who for whatever reason people continually

underestimate how shrewd he is he's a Republican and he has indicated his support for the Republican candidate.

Shock.

This has apparently really bothered mansion who said

This is what's wrong with this place. Okay? And I have I've said this. I have never ever campaigned against a sitting colleague and if

you want to know what's wrong with the process go talk to McConnell that tells you everything that's wrong with the process? Go talk to McConnell. That tells you everything that's wrong

with the Congress and the United States Senate, especially under his leadership.

Man. Man, I guess siding with the Republican Party, all of those times really didn't benefit you very much. I never thought the leopards would come from my face, right?

Yeah, so if McConnell throws his weight behind justice, who is the, at this point, the presumptive

opponent of Manchin, I mean I don't want to say it's a certainty that justice is going to win because

mansion has squeaked out wins in a very in a very red state but it is going to be much harder for mansion if McConnell throws

his weight behind justice which does appear to be the case.

The Republican Party is about power and it doesn't matter if you compromise with

authoritarians. They want power. That never changes. It doesn't matter if y'all are friends and have dinner and have lunch

together all the time. At the end of the day, from McConnell's perspective, that's a seat.
