Just wait until "the strike is hurting the holy economy" narrative gets going.

Just wait until Congress passes a bipartisan law to make it illegal for them to strike.

Yup. All Republicans and exactly enough Democrats. And complicit anti-union centrists will be like "don't blame Manchin! Look at all the other people we agree with who he voted with!"

Manchin is probably providing cover for a few corporate Dems. If it wasn't him, it would be one of them, I'm sure. We just really need to get corporate money out of politics.
