There's something I've been meaning to post since Kamala's announcement and that is...."What planet is Joe Manchin on?" He declares he's a Dem again and floats his POTUS candidacy?
Being ex-GOP...I've been inclined to give Joe a bunch of slack about some of his antics during the MAGA times but this latest and probably greatest CLUELESS and FOOLISH move was beyond me.
It just demonstrates how out of touch he is with the Dems and some seriously misunderstanding of how low his reputation is among Democrats these days. Not to mention completely missing that the Kamala path is probably the only thing keeping Trump out of office. One wonders....where is Manchin at with Trump anyway? Is Trump simply a very popular GOP candidate to Joe? Does he get it? Sometimes I don't know if he does or, at least, if he does...he's terrible at communicating it.
He's another one of the "I have to be in office to stop Trump" but he rarely ever actually does anything like that.
Yah...I was aware of that...but my point was how clueless he was to even float the balloon at all...ESPECIALLY after he gave the Dems the finger by going independent. He could have re-registered as a Dem and kept it at that if he was really interested in the Dem party. He was ONLY interested in himself in an "only I can fix it" moment.
Yah...my point was that he re-registered as a Dem and floated his name so fast after Biden declared he wasn't running for re-election. He flipped off the Dems less than a year ago and then when it appeared good for his career (he thought)....all of a sudden he's re-registering as a Dem. He's a little bit like Nikki Haley in how he tries to ride the center, but this wasn't very elegant or smart in this particular case.

Don't worry. Manchin's already gone where he needed to: away. It seems no one was buying any tickets to his All About Me Show.

No, Manchin said he is not going to challenge Harris.

IMO his ego is almost as big as TFG's.
Much bigger. Like the size of Mt. Etna. Only all he contains is hot air. No lava that anyone could be impressed by. Just go, Joe.
