  • Dems for RINOs

    From Aaron Thomas@1:342/201 to All on Wed Oct 21 13:09:04 2026
    Former Democrat US senator Joe Manchin is campaigning for RINO US senator Susan Collins.

    It's a little surprising because Democrats usually try to distance themselves from RINOs in order to not draw attention.

    Joe was an old school Democrat... "Normal" ... Who cares how Republican RINO makes it... So be it... She's an "R" and not a "D". and she's needed to secure a majority its OK.

    Yea it's ok. And it takes a guy like Manchin to be able to say nice things about her. I couldn't do that :)

    Manchin needs to focus on getting the RINO elected.

    Everyone else needs to focus on the midterms and keeping the majorities.

    I personally think we're good... Rallies are packed and the Democrats look retarded.

    ... Some people have no idea what they're doing, and are really good at it!

    Yea, I'm not worried either. I'm hopeful that we get a super-majority but if not it's no biggie.
