Everyone knows Manchin is a moderate piece of garbage but people thought Sinema was a progressive that is why she is getting all the hate. It would happen if Bernie or Aoc did something blatantly against the working class. Same reason we point out Dems sucking more than we criticize the Republicans they are supposed to be on our side.
Yes I agree but compared to an old white man like Manchin people were excited to have a bisexual woman who appeared like a progressive ally to the general public at face value.
