After Failed Attempt to Oust Trump with 25th Amendment, Dem Senator Says He's Now Looking at 14th to Boot GOP Lawmakers

Democratic Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia said he is open to removing Republican senators who objected to the Electoral College vote last week.


Republicans were objecting to the results of several states when the protest taking place on the streets of Washington erupted in rioting and the Capitol was stormed. Some then persisted with their objections when Congress reconvened hours later.


In an interview that aired Friday on the PBS show “Firing Line,” Manchin took a hardline stance against Republicans who objected to the vote, particularly Sens. Josh Hawley of Missouri and Ted Cruz of Texas.

The march of the autocrats.

Manchin said that in a private conversation with Hawley, he told the Missouri Republican, “Look, Josh, you have a right to do what you’re doing, but think of what’s happening, what you’re seeing on the monitors.”

Yeah, if they aren't smart enough to know you can't reverse an election after it's certified by the electoral college, they probably should be "booted."

No.

No.

Yes, yes, yes.

They should instead ask what elections did not have objections. This is as much of a Manchin lie as his promises he made before the Georgia election.

Yes, yes, yes.

You should try actually reading the Constitution before you get your hopes up.
