the grounds that he had the most experience in washington. and that is 36 years in the senate, that meant that he could get things done. that seems to have been thrown overboard as he let bernie sanders and aoc drive the agenda. they are just alienating people, and i am surprised they have made it this personal, especially we are only two year one of the biden presidency. if he alienates joe manchin now and they lose control of the senate come next november, things are going to look very different. gillian: what about on the flip side? what is manchin s teacher in the democratic party looking like? less than a year income he s already not in the president s d graces anymore. does that make them any less effective in terms of his own constituents? no, he is in the seat, he s in the 50th vote. they can huff and puff all they want but they can t blow him down. he is also representing west virginia fairly ably.
atlanta. you saw the atlanta journal-constitution this weekend responding to that by saying you re wrong. the district is doing just fine. how concerned are republicans about being associated with this battle? donald trump has picked toxic battle after toxic battle. he s already alienated people who he doesn t care if he alienates. i think it s troubling. folks have waited so long. is donald trump going to pivot? is he going to change. we are on the verge of his inauguration. it s clear that s not going to happen. one thing that s unfortunate, while certainly i don t like the idea that we re calling our president-elect illegitimate, it still doesn t mean you hit back. every time somebody picks a fight with you you don t have to hit back. vice president pence had a more measured response, calling it disappointing but acknowledging the important role john lewis has had in the civil rights
