Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) stood up for himself and his constituents Monday, responding to the White House, which put him on blast for saying he could not support President Joe Biden's $1.75 trillion Build Back Better bill.
"They figured surely to God we can move one person. We surely can badger and beat one person up. Surely we can get enough protesters to make that person uncomfortable enough that they'll just say, 'OK, I'll vote for anything,'" the lawmaker told a local radio station, according to The Hill.
