or jump parties. They didn't need his vote, but he still went ahead with it.

(41,832 posts)7. Trump is probably hoping Manchin gets primaried
Then the Senate cushion would be better for him.
Can't stand Manchin, but this talk of getting a primary challenge is stupid.
He is probably the only Dem who can win, if at all, in WV.
Even if he only votes 40-50% of the time with Dems, it's better than zero... but more importantly it's the numbers.
Wouldn't it be great to get rid of McConnell as leader? All the committee chairs could be Dems if we win some seats in 2018.
We can't afford to lose any Democrats, even the likes of Manchin
