Joe Manchin is a Senator from a state that ranks last in infrastructure, 48th for economy, 47th for healthcare and economic opportunity, 45th for education.
Just who is he representing, his constituents are Americans that would stand to gain the most from what the Democrats propose.

Perhaps his constituents don't agree with you. They voted for him. Maybe they think they "stand to gain" other things more. |

Perhaps he doesn’t represent his constituents well

White voters without a four-year degree made up 69 percent of voters there in 2020, according to census data, the highest in the country.
And Joe Manchin has a dream that he will be reelected, it's unlikely. |

it sure seems like you’re saying you have an issue with white people who don’t have a 4 year degree. i thought liberals were tolerant and inclusive?
If you have a 4 year degree, it doesn’t seem to be doing you a while lot of good in terms of civility or honest thinking.
Manchin was elected senator in 2010, 2012, and 2018. He was governor before that. You don’t think he’s going to win in 2024, do you think he’ll lose to a republican, or will he lose in a primary to a more liberal democrat.
