Then explain how it’s suppose to actually work. I don’t believe in a 100% purity test. But I see a lot of people in this sub that are way to ready to just give people like Manchin a pass. I get he’s in a Conservative state but he voted for fucking brett kavanaugh. A corrupt, partisan judge who’s likely a past sexual assaulter. He voted for him when he didn’t even have to. There does have to reach a point we’re when the huge events come into play like that vote did if we can’t even count on if he will back up his party or not then what’s the point? And the argument that “Running to the left doesn’t work in conservative states” besides Manchin Jon Tester from Montana was the only Democrat from a more conservative state to survive and he ran much more to the left.
