Manchin walks a tightrope. He’s a Democrat representing a Red state. He has to “act” Republican if he wants to continue being re-elected. Even more importantly, most of his personal wealth (which is considerable) is tied up in the coal industry.

I agree with you about the Democrats. I believe that the Republicans will win decisively in 2022 and 2024. If that happens, especially if Trump is re-elected, be prepared for caravans of Americans headed for your border.
