Exactly why the Dems should end the filibuster.

But Democrats will still have the "Manchin problem". Is he is burnishing his conservative credentials to improve his chances of getting reelected? After all its W. VA, are they capable of discerning the difference? Wouldn't he be better off getting more pork into the state by playing nice to the Biden administration and curry favor with his constituents? I just don't get it and he could wind up to be a thorn on our side like McCain was to the GOP. I am just speculating, I have very little knowledge of W. VA politics.

I'd rather the Dems had only the "Manchin problem" do deal with instead of that plus the GQP trying to sink both the Biden administration and the Democratic party.

He's a contrarian and drunk with power. The whole Democratic bloc could fall apart if this "I am essential to the 50+1 majority, so you have to do what I say' virus spreads much.

I took a quick look. 2019 median household income from the US Census Bureau:
West Virginia is $46,711 and Virginia is $74,222.
That is huge for neighboring states and even higher median income for Virginia has been published by other sites.
(Thanks)

I added a word there thinking that's what you meant. Correct me if I'm wrong there.

Thanks. Speaking of W. VA, a history teacher was teaching his students on line and when he told them that Biden won the election, one of the parents simply killed their internet connection.

Why The Recent Violence Against Asian Americans May Solidify Their Support Of Democrats
https://fivethirtyeight.com/features...-of-democrats/
Donny's and the Repubes' xenophobic attacks on Asians will come back to bite them on the ass, bigly.
