    These old career politicians don’t become millionaires from their federal salaries.they have PACs and get paid to be guest speakers. After they quit, they get paid millions a year to be consultants or some bullshit title VP where they only meet once a year to justify “working”.

    Manchin has a yatch and he’s from one of the poorest states. Boats in general are a huge money sink and this asshole has a boat with enough square footage to be a regular house, 1500.

    Whenever I think of West Virginia I think of rundown early 20th century homes and barefoot kids in overalls. I know it’s a stereotype, but check out that video. It’s so sad that they fight so hard for the coal mines that killed 3 generations because it’s the only steady income in the area.

    I don’t condone killing politicians, but I do think tar and feathering should become fashionable again. If you’re too old to outrun your constituents or survive your chickening, you’re to old to represent them.
