Why I Won’t Support Spending Another $3.5 Trillion
Long story short, Manchin is doubling down on NOT supporting the bit Drunken Sailor Give-Away Program of the Liberals.
Some say he's doing this so the Liberals will have to kiss his 6 to move forward.
Some say he's just trying to cement his place in West Virginia where his State voted overwhelmingly for Trump.
Some say he's signaling he is considering jumping ship to the Republican party.

The nation faces an unprecedented array of challenges and will inevitably encounter additional crises in the future. Yet some in Congress have a strange belief there is an infinite supply of money to deal with any current or future crisis, and that spending trillions upon trillions will have no negative consequence for the future. I disagree.
An overheating economy has imposed a costly “inflation tax” on every middle- and working-class American. At $28.7 trillion and growing, the nation’s debt has reached record levels. Over the past 18 months, we’ve spent more than $5 trillion responding to the coronavirus pandemic. Now Democratic congressional leaders propose to pass the largest single spending bill in history with no regard to rising inflation, crippling debt or the inevitability of future crises. Ignoring the fiscal consequences of our policy choices will create a disastrous future for the next generation of Americans.
