Senator Joe Manchin To President Donald Trump: Please, Find Another Drug Czar | Morning Joe | MSNBC

How many times have we heard about him taking on or doing a favor for people who "supported him early on". Basically you give Trump money, you get a job in his administrations. No matter who you are.

[codersxhero]

How come when it comes to bills dealing with major donors it's just "oh well, unanimous consent"?

[skqueen]

Drug "Czar" ... "Drug War" .... both are nebulizer terms and utter jokes...

[agbooladaniel]

Why does this president deal in school boy psychology? Everyone is opened to ridicule and abuse until he needs them. They suddenly become his long time and greatest friend. I will be very worried for anyone who Trump calls a friend.

[absolutless]

Manchin seems like a reasonable republican

[JoseLuis-ydhh]

When are we going to make the magical question???, what is the ideal taxation for the middle class??, , neither the reporters ask !, or the senator comments!, , mmm?? But they were clear on the 25% taxation advantage for the richest!

[SCBrown]

Funny that his daughter raised drug prices.

[NoOne-iith]

Shouldn't it be spelled Tzar In trump's administration? Hmm, get Putin on the phone...

[emmajean]

Ivanka compassionate about child care costs ? Like she can't afford it !?!

[raharmonnelson]

This is when rubber meets the road.... we tried repatriation before.... they brought the money back and STILL outsourced jobs....

[Phi]

If Republicans and Democrats can agree on one thing it's cutting taxes for their rich donors.

[TooTrue]

Good to see support for the Kurds. They are a people of honor and deserve their freedom.

[jlbelljr]

these crooks need to go to jail...they sell lies all day long...especially manchin...he gets more donations from out of state than in state....how does that represent your state joe? if the leaders are not accountable then how can anyone be?

[TheSuzberry]

What was the purpose of that legislation SUPPOSED to be? Assuming that it wasn’t openly a bill to make drug enforcement more difficult.

[emmaburgess]

I don’t know why the Kurds would ever trust us again ..

[MancaveCentral]

The title should have read.. "Find another job'...

[joyceboyd]

You two news people if that would be the best could say about you. I waiting when soon you will maybe out of news completely, we people wise up, man up, and take down corrupt, lying fake news. And I believe we are fast getting to that time. If you believe hard enough all things happen. I feel very strong it sooner than you think.👏👏👏👏👏

[TCt]

I cant wait for Paula Jean to replace this guy

[hamishgaffaney]

Hey MSNBC ask this guy about his primary challeger

[Woody]

Sen Manchin, you shouldn't complain about a bad law after you voted for it. You should be doing a better job B4 a law is passed.
