kind of like elizabeth warren protecting the medical device industry. strangely enough, that industry has huge ties to massachusetts.
but yes, joe manchin is single handedly killing the planet, says people from the state of michigan whose representatives in government have been attempting to shelter the polluting auto industry for years.
the planet is being "being killed" by china and india and your and my suv (and jeff bezos' rocket joy rides) not by joe manchin.
i dont disagree with your premise about joe manchin. he's a politician. lying, grifting, and manuevering the rules and money to help big business is what most of them do. its a shame.
