Manchin Will Vote in Favor of Taxpayer-Funded Abortion
[Free Beacon] Sen. Joe Manchin (D., W. Va.) said he will vote against a proposed amendment to the West Virginia constitution that would end taxpayer-funded abortion.

The Democrat announced his opposition to Amendment 1 at a Thursday debate with Republican nominee, Attorney General Patrick Morrisey. The initiative would establish that the state constitution does not guarantee abortion as a right, which would overturn a 1993 West Virginia Supreme Court ruling allowing Medicaid funding to be used for elective abortions. Under the current regime, 1,500 abortions are performed every year in the state using taxpayer funding. Manchin insisted he is pro-life, but believes taxpayers should pay for some abortions.

#1 Manchin seems like a nice guy. However, in the game of power politics, Manchin does't help the current admin. much.

It got demoralizing to see the country ground down by both the Rinos and Donks in the past. IMO, the criminality of Obama's administration with the contribution by the Clintons just about did this country in.
