Manchin is a fucking Republican masquerading as a Democrat and I'll never defend him. The whole notion of unquestionable support is foolish. Consider that we're in weird, weird times and Haspel is a symptom of it. There are dangerous people and crackpot people in every other department in Trump's government, so the CIA will be no different. You have to consider that she's been there through an entire Democratic administration and no one said a peep. Even though she was one of the rank and file, it seems a bit odd to suddenly learn she's a monster. The monster has always been there. You'll be needed for the clean-up job, so please don't go.
