The only question is how long it will take Sen. Manchin to say he is now against it because Republicans don't wanna vote for it.

Of course the turtle tyrant would be against it. He's wants fascism and to screw the people who aren't like him. I don't know how many times I wished I could kick the dentures out of his evil mouth.
