Morning Joe says people are trying to make Manchin and Sinema to switch to GOP.
Unbelievable these Purity Ponies are this dense. After all we went through.
Normal Dems are just as bad about so-called "pro-life" Democrats.
They're all gone now. Meet Michelle Fischbach.

To be clear -
Driving Manchin and Sinema out because they don't toe the line doesn't punish THEM, it punishes the Democrats
They'd be showered with perks, part of a bigger majority, and coast to reelection from now on
And they'd still be the deciding votes.
You'd gain nothing

Make no mistake- Every right-wing group in the world is bombarding Manchin and Sinema with offers of money and god knows what else, begging them to join GOP
We are DAMN lucky they have integrity and care about the Democrats, so they stay, despite how you people disrespect them

Manchin has never been the deciding vote against the Democrats, so why do you care how he votes? He votes to keep his voters happy.
Those calculations should be made by local professionals. They might not get it right everytime, but they're a lot more likely to get it than you.

Here's an essay that goes into this a little more http://sallyal.ink/TrustNancy
New Rule:
If you find yourself wanting to bash Joe Manchin, take a moment to google my old friend Alex Mooney first. Because that's who would probably replace him.
Then if you still want to hate on Manchin, do your worst
He doesn't care, nor should he. He doesn't answer to you

Look, y'all, I get it. We've been operating in high gear for over a year.
I do this for a living. It's hard to go from 60 to Zero. It's called "election depression" and usually we have two months to unwind and decompress.
But we didn't get that this year, it just kept going.

It's finally over. But now everyone is addicted to the battle and the rush (See why I love my job so much?)
But you have to find a way to let go.
You can't treat it a legislative session like football season, where you're emotionally invested in the W/L column from week to week

i promise, you don't have to engage at that level anymore. They Democrats know what they're doing.
It doesn't matter if you don't "trust" them. The die is cast. They're going to do what they're going to do.
And they aren't listening to you anyway. They answer to their voters.

There's no reason to drive yourself crazy stressing about what Leadership will do. You have no control.
They don't need your advice.
They don't need your support.
You don't not know better than they do.
