Where is Manchin's 10 Republican votes?

[RainCaster]

He told us he could get at least 10 to vote for his brand of bullshit. So where the hell are they?

[rpannier]

1. Likely in his imagination

He is the definition of believing in something just for the sake of believing in it
He can't find proof to support his assertion, so he just continues repeating it; kind of like a parrot (or a republican congressional rep)

13. He's just saying it to run down the clock.

2. We are wondering

I never expected Manchin to be successful but I was hoping for a couple of votes. MoscowMitch appears to have been successful in whipping the votes against Manchin to keep a couple of GOP senators from voting.

The next step is to use nuke option to force a talking filibuster which would be fun to watch

3. He knew he could this is just stall and delay ... it's his gun reform b.s. from before

[budkin]

5. He always knew that was impossible

He just wanted to be at the center of the political universe for as long as humanly possible.

6. He doesn't need 10

He has 50

7. in the fairy-tale queue with 72 (720?) houris
