Manchin: Voters Rejected Democrats Because of ‘Radical’ Socialist Messaging

NTD – Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) said Democrats had poor messaging in 2020 while simultaneously noting that portions of the party aligned itself with the “radical part of the so-called left.”

“We didn’t have a good message, I’ll be very honest with you,” Manchin told CBS News on Sunday. “We let them tag us basically before we could remind the people who we are.” He was referring to Republicans and the Trump campaign’s accusations that Democrats have capitulated to leftist radicals.

Trump’s margin of victory in 2016 “went from being mad to being scared in 2020 … they were scared of this socialism that was thrown out there by a radical part of the so-called left that was throwing all this out there that basically scared the bejeezus out of people,” Manchin added.

Of the leftist label, he said “that hung on and hung on strongly, and it’s not who we are.” read more

  2. Reports all over the place that republicans are coming out of the woodwork telling Trump to concede.

    How is one to know if it’s just more gaslighting from the lying msm, or it’s really true, given that the republican party is full of the most back stabbing son of a bitches this country has ever seen.

    I suspect that Trump will want to fight but eventually see that he will get NO FUCKING help at all from his own party and eventually just throw in the towel.

    The strategy to win this thing is clear, it’s been set out by a twitter account shown on twitchy, and all it takes is a fair number of republicans standing with him. I guess that’s too much to ask for.

    I’ve been saying all along that the republican party will not save us from jack shit. I stand by it.

  3. No, Joe, I reject Dems not because of radical socialist messaging, but because so many of you are stupid, ugly, fatuous, arrogant, condescending, narcissistic, belligerent, unprincipled, lying totalitarian jackasses.

  4. @ xxx The Rinos are telling him to step down and we know that is what they do, give up, who cares what Jeb Mitt and all the others say it is complete and utter bullshit.
    Now to the finer point of his family telling President Trump to step aside for the good of the country, Jared and even his wife Melania have been named by, guess who, CNN the biggest lairs of all, and you think that is real. I can see it now his wife from, living in a commie country growing up telling him , “you know honey living under the commies was not that bad lets give it a try”, and Jared would not have the balls to utter those words in his presence he would be told to pack his shit and get out.
    These people love our country and will fight for it to the bitter end. As we will too. The end.

  5. @BENITO: WV has almost always been a cesspool of political corruption, be it pols serving the Northeast industrialists, or assholes serving themselves. For the latter do a search on Arch Moore. For the ultimate in WV political failure see Robert C. Byrd. From time primordial in WV’s statehood, there have been few who served honorably, few who served without scandal.

    As mentioned above, Manchin is a pussy. I am confident he will be replaced next term. I doubt his replacement, R or D, will be any better.

  6. Manchin has already been out saying Biden would be good for WV. I think the 70% that voted for Trump, and also voted in Super majorities of Rs in both houses of the state legislature, have a different opinion.

  7. “…it’s not who we are.”

    That’s what every social-communist says after knowing about mass starvation and death camps.

    If they will kill their own children, they will throw their political enemies in coke ovens, why wouldn’t they?
