Vice President Mike Pence slammed Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., on Twitter Wednesday with a long thread condemning the senator for voting "no" on a number of Republican policies.
"@Sen_JoeManchin is going to keep voting against West Virginia & I think Chuck Schumer & Nancy Pelosi are pretty happy w/ the way he votes. But WV needs to let him know that they EXPECT BETTER & they need to let Joe know that WEST VIRGINIA DESERVES BETTER. #Joevotedno," Pence tweeted.
Manchin announced last week that he would seek re-election this year.
“I’ve said this point blank: If people like me can’t win from Red states, you’ll be in the minority the rest of your life,†Manchin told the New York Times, referring to his centrist views.
