Manchin Levels AOC for Disgusting Remarks About

The House had a vote on a decision to honor Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk and condemn political violence on Friday. 

It handed, but 58 Democrats had a fully soulless second and would not vote for it. 

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) selected that second, which was supposed to honor Kirk, to assault and slander him instead, by twisting issues he said or taking them out of context. 

BREAKING: AOC just took to the House ground to defend her No vote on the Resolution honoring the life of Charlie Kirk.

This goes to make your blood boil.

They couldn’t even have some basic human decency and, for once, shut their mouths and hold their thoughts about themselves, or think about someone else for a change.

AOC Debases Self Further in Vicious Anti-Charlie Kirk Screed, Votes ‘No’ on Resolution to Honor Him

GWN’s Kasie Hunt asked former Democrat Sen. Joe Manchin about his reaction to what AOC had to say. 

I don’t think she anticipated the response, and she didn’t look at all happy with what he had to say. He said this was one of the reasons that the Democrats are losing people like him. 

Former Democrat Senator Joe Manchin TORCHES AOC over her vile rhetoric about Charlie Kirk during a vote to condemn his assassination:

“I was stunned,” he said. Manchin continued:

“This is not the place and the time for that at all. If the Democrats, if AOC and the far left, the extreme left…believe that’s where the Democratic Party is today, then that will tell you why you lost people like me. And an awful lot. And let me tell you what you’ve lost. Since the last election, they’ve [AOC and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt)] been doing their national tour, and thinking boy, that’s something, we’re really getting into something. 

“The Democratic Party has misplaced more than 160,000 Democrats that [sic] have mainly left the Party since November election. So if that’s the best way the Democratic Party goes, it is getting worse, not better.” 

Bingo. They think that’s picking up some of the leftist base who’ve always been mouthing off. But in the process, they’re losing all those folks in the middle. And those are the folks that they need to win national elections, not the tiny base of radical leftists. That doesn’t bode well for the Democrats as we go into the midterms in 2026. 

He also laid it out on Bill Maher’s HBO show, explaining that Democrats were more concerned with protecting people who could work, but didn’t want to. 

🚨NEW: Joe Manchin: “I used to be a Democrat all my life. They better determine how they misplaced people like me.”

…you are anxious more about a particular person that’s able-bodied and succesful of working that will not work, versus me, who will work — there’s one thing flawed!” 

The viewers applauded that. 

Instead of considering about what the American people need or shifting to the middle, the Democrats just keep working additional left, embracing unlawful aliens and attacking law enforcement. 

It’s not a successful message.
