Senator Manchin: Ignoramus
Manchin is apparently sincere, but he shows his ignorance when he talks about the Senate and the founding fathers.
In historical fact, the founders only allowed both small states and large states two senators because that was the only way to get the Constitution ratified back in 1788.
That's why Senator Manchin, who represents West Virginia, a state with a population of less than 2 million, has two senators like California, which has a population of nearly 40 million.
Importantly, the filibuster that Manchin supports is a relic of our country's racist past used by Southern senators to defeat voting rights.
Now the filibuster is being used by the racist Republican Party to oppose voting rights and the rest of President Biden's agenda.
