Bernie is pissed because he knows he’s been passed by. Too cowardly to stand up to Hillary and her powerful friends, he lost his his one chance for the presidency. The BBB crap was his legacy – a kind of runner-up prize – not clueless Joe’s. Manchin stole it out from under him, and in so doing virtually announced his intention to be the Dem nominee in ’24. Bernie, Hillary, Kamala and Joe, as well as all the other pretenders to the throne, have been put on notice!
Interesting take about Manchin running in 2024. While he would be a formidable candidate IF he got the nomination, the progressive Dems wouldn’t back him. It would take two to three equally strong Progressives to run to split that part of the party so he could get the nomination.
The progs should be less formidable if the house flips big next year. They will take the blame. But I agree with you, CM, that is Manchin’s biggest hurdle for the nomination.
