Manchin Double Crosses GOP, Makes Spending Deal with Dems

BUCK: Welcome back to Clay and Buck. This is Buck here in NYC. Clay on the LIV golf course right now. So, I’m in solo today.

And there you had Tom Cotton explaining a little bit of what’s going on here. Just so you know, there was some agreement among Senate Republicans. They’d vote for the chip bill — which was a huge spending bill in favor of semiconductor and effectively microchip domestic production in this country, right? That you’re gonna have more chip making here in America and they’re gonna spend a whole bunch of money to do it. Senate Republicans went along with that with the understanding that any piece of Build Back Better was done, right?

Joe Manchin had said he wasn’t gonna go for it; it wasn’t gonna work. What do you think happened right after Senate Republicans passed the chip bill? All of a sudden, all of a sudden there’s another spending bill that Democrats revive and Joe Manchin’s going along with it. That’s the double-cross that Senator Cotton’s referring to. On the one hand, you get annoyed because Democrats are so utterly contemptibly dishonest. Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, these people will just lie about anything, with no integrity. It doesn’t matter.

But, on the other hand, I also want to say, do Republicans have to get schooled like this over and over again? Are we really to believe that they didn’t know they were going to be double-crossed? Shouldn’t they have assumed? You’re dealing with Democrats. You’re senators. You see how these people operate all the time. You need a lesson in this again? I don’t know. I think maybe they just wanted to go with the chip bill and now they’re saying, “No!

“But they promised us they wouldn’t do the big, bad Biden bill,” and they did, or they are doing it, I should say. What does it do? $369 billion invested in “energy climate programs.” Oh. You know, 300 billion here, 300 billion there starts to add up after a while, doesn’t it? This is some of the Green New Deal, folks. This is some of Biden’s crappy Build Back Better idea coming through. It’s terrible for the economy, but they’re doing it.
