west virginia senator joe manchin.s role in the back biden presidency so far. in january, an op-ed in the hill called mentioned a big thorn in biden's side, from blocking the -- back better plan. maybe you think it is an isolated incident? no. just a few days ago, manchin said that recent comments with the coal industry were outrageous and divorced from reality. just days after, that manchin came out against biden's nominee for energy conditions. if democrats win in georgia will that effectively neutered joe manchin's power as a democratic spoiler? keep in mind that manchin is also up for reelection in 2024. along with fellow, i'm putting this in, quote moderate democrats. kirsten sinema and jon tester. let's bring back my power political perilous sunday. morning jennifer horn in cristobal alice. cristobal, for this round i want to start with you first. do you think it is a guarantee that warnock's 51st seat would eliminates the ability of moderates, quote, like joe manchin and kyrsten sinema, to hold up the nomination

we would not support a primary challenge to joe manchin. what i would rather have him -- a republican, absolutely. i think joe manchin needs to do a better job of representing the people of west virginia. there was a moment that struck me during the build back better fight, where bernie sanders and the president were pushing to have medicare cover vision, dental and hearing for seniors. there are not many seniors saying i do not want my hearing or dental taken care of. there was a specific out there, if you were to analyze all of the teeth in america, west virginians need the most help. joe manchin put the kebache on that provision. why? it would help his state. it would disproportionately help his state. it was a giant move for west virginia. i think he is listening too much to corporations, to the jamie diamonds on wall street, to republicans like lindsey graham. we need him to listen more to west virginia. if he gets reelected, it is because he has done more to go back to his roots. he has been there. he has shown up in the past. to fend

that represents west virginia values, senator manchin is a partisan democrat. biden spending bill and he sold out he is a loyal partisan democrat voted to impeach donald trump, i bring conservatism. he has done good for a while, but he has become a lliberal and an enabler of joe biden and the democrats. jackie: what is interesting the left would criticize joe manchin and say he is not liberal enough for them, he is kind of getting attacked from both sides. >> i guess he didn't like the criticisms he caved in cutting a deal with joe biden and chuck schumer and passed a horrible spending bill, and voted to impeach donald trump twice. so he does with the represent west virginia values, he barely won his last election receiving less than 50% of the vote, i have been elected with 63 and 66% of the vote. th2, i believe that voters are ready for a change, we can do something right bring a good republican senator from west virginia, that is why i'm announced. i was disappointed we didn't take senate this year, i now the we would. at least we took the house, to put stop

now it's manchin or cinema instead of manchin and sinema if they get this 51st seat. race for democrats and republicans still even though it seems like after the election circle. >> danielle? >> i would agree as it relates to georgia. as it relays to joe manchin. looks like republicans will be zeroed in on the border and immigration and the run up to the 2024 presidential election. that know where joe manchin sits. they want his support. he's up for re-election in 2024. in a state that has gone republican for republicans back to 2000, it's likely that they're going to try to knock him out and try to get an alliance with him on those two issues while they can. >> charles: on that, let me get your thoughts on manchin. feels like the white house hand democratic leadership might have played a game of bait and switch with him. it's not the first time, i don't believe, but he seems to be smarting over that pretty much. he's not reliable. he says the right things with respect to west virginia voters but seems like he always blinks and caves to the democratic president. could

he announced he will enter the ring to flip manchin's seat in 2024.tions on your win. >> thank you. >> brian: what is it about two years from now makes you think you want to be senator? >> i was disappointed we didn't take over last week in the election. i'm a conservative republican i believe the state i live in, west virginia, this beautiful state is conservative second best state for donald trump. got almost 70% of the vote here. we should have a republican u.s. senator and one that's conservative like me. i don't think joe manchin represents our state well we need a change for a true conservative. >> brian: congressman, other thing that comes to mind you told me in the break that joe manchin ran ads against you from your primary. >> that was no surprise to me. i had a very tough primary against another incumbent. i prevailed by a wide margin 19 percentage points. i woke up one day and there is joe manchin's face on tv it personally attacking me and saying things that weren't true. he will went after me in a primary, which i thought was pretty arro

we're good friends, joe manchin and i are.'ll have to ask him the question on monday when i see him. griff: let us know, it's interesting. >> i will. griff: we love playing the parlor game here in washington. start capito, thank you for your time. >> have a good weekend. >> i like how she put that. not to think too frivolously for joe manchin. on the other side of the aisle we're joined by from california, house infrastructure committee, john garamendi, and serves on the armed services committee. and what a busy week and i know you're probably also glued to the tv screen, the ticker on the bottom waiting for it to change. let's start with the state of the house, republicans seem to be inching closer to a very, very slim majority. your thoughts this morning on where things stand. >> well, i was delighted to follow senator capito, her husband and my wife worked closely on the congressional club and so, it's great to see her. i think we agree that the house of representatives is definitely in play. i was looking at the california

they want manchin's seat in 2024.dy west virginia congressman alex mooney will run for manchin's senate seat. that is just one name. it is still pretty early. so doesn't look like getting what he was promised. ashley: no. lauren, thank you very much. now this. one of the largest furniture businesses in the country has laid off nearly its entire workforce through a text right before thanksgiving. oh, my. we have that story. the holiday shopping season is in full gear. more people are turning to credit cards despite record high interest rates. is this a recipe for disaster? i will ask steve forbes and he is on the show next. ♪. i've never been healthier. shingles doesn't care. but shingrix protects. proven over 90% effective, shingrix is a vaccine used to prevent shingles in adults 50 years and older. shingrix does not protect everyone and is not for those with severe allergic reactions to its ingredients or to a previous dose. an increased risk of guillain-barré syndrome was observed after getting shingrix. fainting ca

what is the relationship between manchin and president biden look like? have had a rocky relationship in the past but did come together to pass the very large inflation reduction act which obviously manchin was a champion of. remember, manchin is now in cycle. after this election, he is up for re-election in 2024. we don't know whether he'll run, whether he'll run for senate, whether he'll run for governor. there is a lot of speculation about that. but obviously this -- there are competing policy interests here as well. president biden believes the country needs to move very swiftly away from coal and fossil fuels. i think that's at the heart, that's the crux of this zrement disagreement between these two men. >> we hear on election eve, as we were discussing with mark murray, we're not going to have a lot of results tomorrow night, certainly in the senate. essentially the house as well. but what the are things that you're looking for? what are some races, a couple, that you're particularly zeroing in on to see what results we get tomorrow or even in the

now some republicans are proposing to rescue manchin.e of them apparently showed appetite for a matching deal. the hill. you can't make this up. manchin already has a primary challenger in 2024 so all republican efforts should move towards supporting that effort not propping up mention back. the odds are mcconnell will do the wrong thing here. connecticut those are just a handful of the battles republicans will have to face hundred mitch mcconnell's leadership. after losing the senate and failing to win the house by a huge margin, republican voters need a -- assurances that the men leading the party are actually on their side. mcconnell mcconnell's 80 years old. he has an opportunity of the next two years to cement his place in history as one of the strongest and most effective leaders the party has ever had. but he has already done able to good job on judges. remember roe versus wade was possible because of the judges at mcconnell make sure they were confirmed in the center. d a bunch of legislation in the trump-era as well. if he does

rds suppnot propping up manchin. the odds are, though, mcconnell will do the wrong thing here.coc now, those are just a handful bl of the battles republicans will have to facespublicane und. mcconnell's leadership after losing the senate and failing to win the house by a huge margin. republican voterge margis, theye assurances that the men leading the party are actually onn their side. new, listen, mitch mcconnellr se is 80 years old. he has an opportunity over the next two years to cement hia his place in history as one ofso the strongest, most effective ar leaders the party has ever had. now, he's already done a really. good job on judges, on rememberu ,roe versus wades was possiblee because of the judges thatfirmed mcconnell made sure were confirmed in the senat ie. s and he passed a bunch of legislation in the trump era as well. now, if he doesn't cement his position in history,un alternatively, he can shun the populist movement and spend the next few years helping biden, helping schumer, helping joe manchin impl

rachel: let's not let joe manchin off the hook. thought you were very generous to him, pete, he is doing this damages. no, no,. pete: i said i played ftse in a way that never work. rachel: barack obama told us in 2016 he wanted to take coal plants out. he wanted energy to skyrocket which it is right now this has been a plan all along. if joe manchin cared about constituents i would have changed become a republican long time ago. i don't give him any credit on this. he said harsh words. that is bs i'm sorry. will: epknows what a political killer this is for him. he knows -- rachel: exactly. he knows it is for him. will: he knows he aligned himself with joe biden and now joe biden does this. that is an absolute killer in west virginia as illustrated, as illustrated by your interview earlier, pete, with a west virginia coal miner. >> we need all the above energy policy for this country. we're not ready to get rid of fossil fuels. we built this country on coal. we won two world wars on coal. all of sudden it's a bad word and i don't un

look, i mean, it's just -- i'm thankful that joe manchin is there. kyrsten sinema, we would have had $5 trillion build back better deal or you know massive, massive inflation by comparison to the $1 trillion plan that made it through but it reminds me of star wars when car whendarth vader realized the k lord was the evil one and he had to protect his son. manchin, you only now see the war on coal is bad for measuring and bad for west virginia in particular? hopefully he fights it. maria: look, you know, two days before the midterm elections to hear joe manchin say that these comments are why everybody's losing faith in joe biden, he did in fact vote for that massive package that was signed into law and you're talking about the covid relief package. let's be clear. it was $1.9 trillion and i would say if you want to look at where inflation and how inflation started and since this administration's always looking for the root cause, the root cause of inflation is the $1.9 trillion covid relief package signed into law in march of '21 so what is the story

>> joe manchin does what senators should do. he's standing up for his state and what he thinks is best for his state and the country. he's been telling people, i'm willing to look at alternative energies, i'm willing to invest in it, that's what the ira did, but you can't get away from coal. we still need coal. if you're going to turn your lights on, you're going to power the country you you're going to need some coal for some time and i think that joe manchin spoke for a lot of voters in the country, this is not the wrong time and i hope he gets the apology. >> interesting to see what happens there. colin, let's put up one more poll and let's put up something from arizona. that's another tight race there and also, one of the key races we've been looking at. mark kelly has been leading the entire time, but blake masters creeping up on him. how do you think that will go. >> this race was written off by republicans and come on late, one of the reasons and the top of the ticket and the attention around kari lake who has become a na

he -- if, in fact, warnock wins, they won't need manchin. they'll be able to govern at 50-50 with manchin voting no and kamala harris will be the tie-breaking vote. but if herschel wins, then all of a sudden, i think once again, you have enormous power in manchin. he's got to decide, does he want to go back home and run for re-election? and in which case he would be vastly better off as a republican. i doubt if he could win as a democrat in west virginia because it's so alien ated by the left wing radical anti-fossil fuels policy. of the biden administration. and the cultural wokeness which is very, very opposite of the values of the people of west virginia. >> explain to me why biden is allowing a country that we the united states don't even recognize as a duly elected president, why would he make a deal with maduro for energy when we have more than they do and we can produce it cleaner, cheaper, faster here. why would he look at another -- why would he give immunity to mbs who he called a murderer. why do we talk to the iranians we don't n

terry: manchin is not alone. everyone knows manchin and cinema.nting others on the issues, whether it be energy issues or the regulation of financial services. remember, they rejected a bunch of people. those people exist in the house, as well. these are four factions, not two parties. that is true. tom: i do not think it is in the zeitgeist right now. i do not think it is a unified gop in the house. i get that. do they have real power to steer gop legislation with gop majority in the house? terry: if they can unify around some things, sure. there will be lots of responsible people. patrick mchenry, the financial services will be one. who will look into do that. it will not be an easy process for them, just like it was not an easy process for democrats in the last cycle. it will take time. it will not be instantaneous. if the senate does not go -- whether or not the senate goes republicans way, it needs 60 votes to proceed the legislation in the senate. it will have nowhere near that. the net-net of that, you will not see much legislation be succe

manchin . they'll be able to govern at0 wh 50 50 with manchin voting no. vn and they'll have kamala harris be the tie breaking vote .t if but if herschel wins, then alln, of a sudden, i think once againi ,youn. have enormous power inesh manchin and he's got to decide ,does he want to go back home and run for reelection in which case he'd be vastly better off as a republican . i doubt if he can win as a democrat in west virginia because it's so alienatedca by the left wing radicall fuels anti fossil fuels policy ofs the biden administration and the the cultural localness ,which is very, very opposite of the values of the people of west virginia. wy >> explain to me why biden is allowing the country that we as the united states don't even recognize as a duly electedpresd president . dealwould he mak we a dealhy wod with medoro for energy when weeo have more energy than they do and we can produce a cheaper, fr cleaner, faster here? why would he be looking for anoh another? why did heer give immunity to members who he called a murderer? whe immuniy would he be

manchin is facing a very, very difficult relax fight in 2024. that's a really difficult flies be. >> that makes that race more interesting. if it's 50/50, the recruit. of christensen cinema will be front and center for mitch mcconnell. >> who's the biggest fresh face in the democratic party that has emerged from this election? a fresh face, you know, can really get a lot of national attention? >> demic side maxwell frost. he's the first gen z member of congress. 25. was this activist for march for our lives. talk about a fresh face. i think you know, he was just in high school a couple of years ago. so it doesn't get much fresher than that. but he does bring a lot of energy, i think to the position that he will be replacing congresswoman value demings who wasn't successful for -- va al demings who wasn't successful for her senate run. i think he's one to watch. >> how about katie brits in alabama? >> katie brits is great she was chief of staff for senator shelby. now senator from alabama. josh shapiro for me was the candidate that really encompa

senator manchin really, ripped into the president, in a statement he released. know it has only been three months since senator manchin came to the rescue of president biden in a big climate bill, giving democrat as lot of what they wanted, holding out against what was called the "build back better" act. when they changed the name to the inflation reduction act still huge subsidies for renewable energy, he went for it. so i'm not sure how much senator manchin can complain after having cast his lot with the president biden and the environmental lobby. stuart: byron, you follow the polls as closely as anyone does. you're right in the middle of the political world. would you care to give us your forecast? you may refuse but if you would like to give us your forecast for the house and the senate in tomorrow's elections we would love to hear it. >> you know washington is this odd place where in the last few days if you run into anybody the first thing they say, what is your number? your number being, how many republicans do you think they're going to be in the house

. >> shannon: talking about control of the senate, joe manchin, quickly, back and forth with him and biden now. >> bret: president biden comments about coal plants being shut down, and manchin's statement about the president was really stunning and then the white house walked it back saying he's misunderstood, it was not what he meant to say. three days before the election, that is a big dust-up in coal country, we'll see how it play out. >> shannon: all right, if they wind up with senate that is tied and senator manchin is part of that, where does he go? he feels burned based on that statement. >> martha: reminds me of hillary clinton sitting around the table and them saying, you took away our livelihood, this is sensitive territory for democrats and tone-deaf statement on behalf of the president this close to the president and we have a walkback, it is a question of how in tune democrats are with where voters are in their hearts and minds and whether that sync-up is happening and joe manchin has been better figuring out where his voters lie for sure. >> bret: we know what the admin

joe manchin, and krysten sinema are up for reelection in 2024. those two are not going to be thrilled going along with the democratic agenda if they believe it's not in their interest. is likely to be ongoing gridlock and congress well this fight plays out in the republican party, and while joe biden is making his decision for the democratic side . >> let's not forget, even though the democrats will be in the majority, it looks like the republican s could become the majority in the house of representatives and how that all shakes out, is still to be determined. guys, thank you very much, withth its bold don't design ,ive technology, go too far away. once again, democrats are keeping controrol of the united states senate but at this hour, control of the hohouse, is still very much up for grabs. we will head to the magic wall theand dyna statemic perf r of play inmance, races, t that's coming up. election night in amamerica continues, that's next. the day you get your clearchoice dental implants makes every day... a "let's dig in" day... mm. ...a "

chris murphy and liberals. >> harris: if they get back to 50/50 it will be what they had and manchinppy with the fact that energy bill, that climate change bill called inflation reduction act that he signed didn't keep their promises to him in the democrat party. maybe that will make him have a second thought. >> big surprise. >> harris: thank you. pete and i were talking about this, the runoff race for georgia senate is on now. early voting over the weekend. turnout is rocking. looks like all the democratic cries of jim crow two were wrong. actress alisa milano virtue signaling. she went after elon musk and her attempt at trolling backfired badly. raymond arroyo in "focus" next. what does it mean to veteran homeowners that newday is a leader in va loans? it means serving veterans is what we do. it means if you need cash, you get more at newday by borrowing up to 100% of your home's value, not just 80%. it means newday has been granted automatic authority by the va to make our own approvals. we can say yes to a veteran when other lenders say no. it means we come to work every day kno

erik mentioned earlier today joe manchin's permitting reform. i think there's members on both sides of the aisle that want to get this done. that's perhaps something that could get achieved. host: but there's no infrastructure talk, right? >> they got in this last congress. immigration reform is another big issue that has been hanging over the congress for years and years, decades in fact. that has not been achieved at all. there's going to be a push to get something done, even if it is much smaller, on immigration reform, on maybe extending visas to workers and farms and producers, things like that, or there's real demand for workers. >> that romney is very thoughtful. the "wall street journal" talks about a bipartisanship coming through. he talks about fixing entitlement. there's an issue with social security 2035, with medicare sooner than that. these are the kinds of things in a divided government where you potentially find some compromise. you find a way to raise the revenue, maybe even raise eligibility age for some people. he calls for th

if you see a republican senate, if you see joe manchin who is up for reelection in 2024 reconsideringhe democratic party's future, i don't know. one thing we're going to see is joe biden has passed a lot of these bills, but a lot of the money from the inflation reduction act, from the chips bill has not been distributed yet so he'll probably spend the next two years doing that and interesting to see how that compares to what congress is doing or absolutely not doing. neil: yeah, more of the latter, to your point. interesting. natalie, thank you very much. natalie andrews on those developments. well, you've heard a lot of republicans bashing the president and democrats in general doing squat about the border it's a big deal when a prominent democrat says yet the same yet, it didn't hurt henry cuellar when speaking reelection. he did so comfortably, but that did not ease the pressure on the administration to do something and fast at the border. he's next. 're hard at work, helping them achieve financial freedom. we're providing greater access to investing, with low-cost options to help

hoeven: listened to rick talk about something, he does not know manchin.e does not know kyrsten sinema. just like he sat in the house and voted know all of the time and was never a part of accomplishing anything, he could have sat in the house and do that here. build back better passed the house. in the senate i were to kill it. sometimes it is more important to get an outcome ingested and vote no and do nothing done. we stopped build back better, that is a fact. dr. christiansen: if you want to talk about failing energy policies look no further than the keystone pipeline. trump chelated -- greenlighted the permit. [indiscernible] you had four years, and you failed. sen. hoeven: i passed it through the house and the senate. dr. christiansen: you had four years during the trump administration. sen. hoeven: that is the strangest argument i've ever heard. [indiscernible] >> rick becker, you have the last word. mr. becker: north dakota dents note that john is a big spender, he has the record and the ratings. he can say anything he wants that is acceptable soun

and with energy costs a major issue for voters, democratic senator joe manchin is slamming presidentaying he wants to shut down coal plants across the country. at at an event in california yesterday. senator manchin said today, quote: president biden's comments are not only outrageous and divorced from reality, they ignore the severe economic pain the american people are feeling because of rising energy costs. it seems his position's changed depending on the audience and the politics of the day. politicizing our nation's energy policies will only bring higher prices and more pain for the american people. let's bring in now jon hilsenrath, global economics contributor at "the wall street journal" and fox news contributor. first of all, timing is everything. why did senator manchin attack president biden's comments three days before the midterms, and will this change any votes? >> well, i mean, i can't speak to senator manchin's intentions, but obviously energy, energy prices and coal particularly in west virginia are hot button issues for a lot of voters right now. is and president bi

you have cinema and joe manchin -- sinema and joe manchin, it makes it a little bit easier you have a little more breathing room. when you get to the committee structure and you have a 50-50 senate, you have a even balance in committees where you need to move partisan objectives like judges -- or ambassadors, or cabinet members moved to the floor. it might sit -- it makes it more wheeled lee for the party in power to move things along. >> even a one seat majority would make it easier to move things along. so people who think it doesn't matter who wins in georgia should think twice? >> i think they will be able to pass more, like judges, that kind of thing. we will see the senate become a nomination, confirmation taskfor ce. it will be helpful for the speed and volume -- especially the executive branch but the judges i imagine they will get a record number in there. >> you've talked about gridlock and not being able to pass a lot of legislation, that is true but would -- what would fill that void is a brisk pace of traditional nominations. >> beyond that, taxes, spending, climate chang

senator manchin among. the skeptics are. hayes, what is your sense of the politics there? the point where there is objectively so much success, and you share jill's view that it is just not going to be resuscitated politically, at least in the near term? >> as you said, joe manchin of west virginia, he is the main reason why this program lapsed. he did not want to include an extension of the child tax credit that in the form it existed, in the reconciliation package that eventually became the inflation reduction act. manchin believed that there is evidence that this would make it so that people would not work, so that parents would lollygag about with their new found riches as opposed to actually getting jobs. there is not evidence of that, though. this pilot program basically showed, like you said, that the reduction in child poverty by have, which some critics say it is not that much. it is to the people who are no longer below the poverty line, and there were also concerns from manchin and others that it was inflationary. that these checks, were contributing to the infl

joe manchin can thank his lucky stars he's not up for re-election this year.ainly, tim ryan in ohio, john fetterman in pennsylvania, maggie maggie hassan up in new hampshire, it's not a coal state, but home heating oil is a big issue. skyrocketing price is a big issue in that race. so energy is definitely a part of the mix here and, obviously, republican candidates are tying all of these candidates, the democratic candidates, to joe biden and the policies coming out of this administration including energy policy. and so i'm sure, you know, tim ryan and john fetterman in particular were not thrilled to hear the president make those comments. jon: new englanders have been warned they could run out of natural gas this winter. tom bevan, you're a busy man these days. we thank you for coming on tonight. >> thanks, jon. jon: and we'll be right back.

that bill likely will not pass and they will lose the willingness of democrats to cater to senator manchin and pass that bill in the last month of the year. i think those are probably the two biggest pieces. the third and final one being government funding and aid to ukraine. we know that there is a substantial defense authorization act. $900 billion roughly worth of spending, a good chunk of which goes to ukraine. the defense stocks are where a lot of our assets are focused as well. kriti: i know you have some expertise on health care policy, specifically. my understanding is the gop would target health care policy from a hospital insurers point of view whereas democrats have been looking at drug pricing specifically at what are the onset some of those policies actually change in a gridlock result? henrietta: i think there is a lot of optimism out there. i did not share that optimism based off of the last two months, the way we saw, for instance, minority leader mcconnell respond to the permitting bill and yanking it from a government funding bill at the end of september. i don't see a lo

manchin slammed the president's remarks as offensive and disgusting to the men and women who work in the coal business. the white house responded that mr. biden's words had been twisted into a meaning he did not intend. >>> meanwhile, georgia has seen a record-breaking turnout in early voting. more than 2 million people have already voted. the most ballots ever cast before election day in a midterm. georgia is a key battle ground state for the control of the u.s. senate. polls show a tight race between the democratic and the republican candidates. cnn's ava mckent is in athens, georgia. >>> game day at the university of georgia where herschel walker is making his closing remarks. he told supporters that democratic incumbent senator is aligning too closely with president biden. >> it isn't about what he did in his personal life, it's what he's done as a senator. he has failed as a senator, has he not? you all see where we're at? it's been two years. you all see where we're at. he's asking for six more years. are you kidding me? he's joking. i know it's a joke. >> reporter: the senator

we would not support a primary challenge to joe manchin.hat i would rather have him -- a republican, absolutely. i think joe manchin needs to do a better job of representing the people of west virginia. there was a moment that struck me during the build back better fight, where bernie sanders and the president were pushing to have medicare cover vision, dental and hearing for seniors. there are not many seniors saying i do not want my hearing or dental taken care of. there was a specific out there, if you were to analyze all of the teeth in america, west virginians need the most help. joe manchin put the kebache on that provision. why? it would help his state. it would disproportionately help his state. it was a giant move for west virginia. i think he is listening too much to corporations, to the jamie diamonds on wall street, to republicans like lindsey graham. we need him to listen more to west virginia. if he gets reelected, it is because he has done more to go back to his roots. he has been there. he has shown up in the past. to fend a

and also neutralizes like joe manchin and sinema, and we got the skinny inflation reduction act, butould imagine he wants to make the most of the next two years before another presidential election. >> one of the things you hit on last was important. there was two against -- the filibuster. use reconciliation, but against the filibuster, you make 51, that cuts down to one. and a lot of times it is hard to stand by yourself, i don't care who you are and we saw that, and what they were able to get i call it the build back manchin, he controlled the whole process. makes it very much harder with just one vote and not looking around and saying i have a partner over here, you have to get two of us. with 51, the house is going to be republican. some is out the door anyway, if the house, you know, does -- >> can i add to that, that senator sinema will likely have a challenge and a lot of pressure on her to play ball with democrats in a different wan that she had been. >> sandra: i cut you off. you have two seconds. >> sinema will play closer, manchin on his own. >> invite us back. >> we'll b

. >> i don't think it was a mixed message so much as one, remember joe m manchin's response.e hell are you saying, manchin has to get reelected. you have a democrat in a red state. and democrats need him to stay there. manchin has his own self interests, he said why you are putting me at a disadvantage with -- constituents. it is one of their key big issue for all voters thet economic but from fox exit polls there is a consolation of issues. that includes abortion and cl climate change in a big way. >> to my friend, juan. west virginia, joe biden and hillary clinton did not win a single county in that state. it is as red as you can get, i will defend joe biden there is talk he will not give a statement tomorrow. i got a copy of his statement. i exercised my wr right to remain silent. there is no good. >> i was going to also respond. he is going to a funeral for democracy. that is on his schedule. but to maria said about state she is watching in terms of energy producing states. that is great in terms of jobs, regulations and administration has put on to oil and gas companies,

and without the vice president's vote, it makes things easier with regard to negotiating with joe manchinhe's had an outsized role here in washington. and he will not enjoy that so much anymore, i don't think, if senator warnock is reelected. rachel: shannon, there were a lot of questions on the republican side, on the senate side about the allocation of money and given how this election has turned out for republicans in the senate, what are you hearing, what are the sort of, you know, monday night quarterbacking about how that money was spent? >> it seems like that that that that's e part of the conversation, let's hold off on our elections here in the senate because the people who were in charge of making sure there were more red senators than blue senators are doing a lot of head scratching and thinking about places that minority leader mitch mcconnell, where his superpac and their money was sent. senator rick scott was many charge of getting more red seats, so that conversation, you've seen the letters and the tweets from folks like marco rubio and mike lee and josh hawley saying let'

joe manchin brought up the fact you are time the people's livelihoods. about their jobs. will mention joe manchin did but for the inflation reduction act which gave the climate change proponents the most significant climate change legislation in u.s. history according to forbes. that is a separate issue. in terms of the narrative from the white house this is no different than the biden ministration policy when it comes to how they treated transition from clean natural gas, efficient cheap energy, also feels too expensive and efficient energy alternative energy. the pain has been the point where they have been on record saying don't have to pay for high gas prices if you have an electric car. they are try to get the base out that is why joe biden is not visiting swing states like arizona he's in philadelphia he is in illinois. interestingly this is the last point, jill biden is going to arizona to campaign with the teachers union went arizona just past the most pro- school choice a piece of legislation. which is so popular is a scholarship program there is a waiting light

but there is the possibility, and mark just mentioned, you know, joe manchin.en at loggerheads with the president particularly on the no more coal thing, feels the president abandoned him. do you think there's any possibility that a manchin, that a kyrsten sinema, some of these others, a lot of even progressive democrats say are democrats in name only would jump and would jump to the republican side? >> well, i certainly think that in 2024 it's a really difficult and even more difficult senate map for democrats. and so a lot of those democrats in red states, jon tester in montana, for example, different senators who are going to be in cycle soon are going to be even less willing to be cooperative with joe biden for the next two years, as mark mentioned. there are a lot of incentives for those democrats who are going to be facing an even tougher environment in 2024 to work with joe biden when he is right now kind of a lame duck president until he really announces that he's actually going to run. we don't have any real reason to be focused on legislating when it

. >> joe manchin did not like that.den, notably in days before the midterm elections and said that comment was, quote, not only outrageous and divorced from reality, it ignores the severe economic pain that the american people are feeling because of rising energy costs. the white house put out a statement saying if someone was basically offended by this, we didn't mean -- >> unforced error. i don't know why biden said that. the thing people aren't thinking about is the kind of coal that comes out of west virginia metallurgical coal, in other words, melts steel. what do you need steel for, wind turbines, electric cars. joe manchin's coal is coal you need for the green revolution. say that and don't say dumb stuff. >> then who is advising -- van jones, perhaps you should go back in your former role as a democratic adviser. >> i'll answer the call. i hate when you do dumb stuff at the end, but i love this president. i love what he's done that's smart. he has done smart stuff. we should brag on the smart stuff biden has don

if warnock goes to the senate again, democrats have the 51 seat majority, joe manchin power diminishesnd democrats could pass serious legislation. that is less serious after threat to republicans that they control the house. that majority is pretty slim. the 50-50 split on committees is pretty significant what we heard former speaker newt gingrich say on those committees with 50-50 slit, republicans are able to hold up nominees that the biden administration wants to put through in a meaningful way. that power will go away if democrats have majority on the committees. cheryl: sarah, i want to get input on breaking news. we're looking at live pictures of capitol hill. we had our eyes on the house floor. we're learning that overall bill that nancy pelosi has brought to the floor to avert a rail strike. that has passed. this is the first of two. i want to get initial reaction the first bill of the two has passed. the second is the carveout trying to basically appease the progressives in her party? >> i think you're seeing a really interesting alignment of people on the left and on the righ

manchin and sinema.e going against the democratic caucus which we will now have another vote. and it lessens the impact of manchin and sinema. so that there is a lot of inside politics that they are going to have to make very popular. to get rationales for turnout on both sides of this. >> reverent, good to see this. morning thank you for. joining us ravenel sharpton is the host of politicsnation here in msnbc, and the founder and the president of the national action network. donald trump is receiving a mountain of blame for the red wave that was in this midterm election. especially from within conservative circles. but that does not appear to stop him from wanting to launch another bid for the white house on tuesday. luckily for us, mary trump, his, niece is standing by to help make sense of his political calculus. tica calculus (vo) with verizon, you can now get a private 5g network. so you can do more than connect your business, you can make it even smarter. now ports can know where every piece of car

ty what this also means and again, maybe if democrats don't win in georgia, joe manchin is still a central he put out a statement a week ago today, where he blasted president biden about his position on cones and comments that he had said about coal plants here, so joe manchin is still going to be a power player here. but here's where the things might get a little more complicated for democrats. the fact that it's going to be a 50 50 senate. you're going to have groups on the left. continue to pressure sucks. schumer the majority leader here to try to get rid of the filibuster, in other words, that you could get around that procedural hurdle and passed bills with just a simple majority. right now, it takes 60 votes, so that is going to be something to watch, especially for the left because they did not get that in this past congress. and that pressure is going to increase in this congress with democratic control again. we don't know control of the house . there's still several races to be called there, and that's going to take awhile. frankly there's a couple of races looking that they're
