If they didn't vote with the Dems when it actually mattered, why should they count?

THEY DID. Unlike Manchin and Sinema, independents caucused with the party.

The Democratic caucus had 50 seats. We gave them the seats. They used them like you wanted.

I am talking about Sinema and Manchin only. They may have had a D next to their name, but they were not on the side of Democrats when it mattered.

And we gave Democrats those seats.

Lying and saying that we only gave Democrats 48 just because 2 of them did everything you wanted doesn't mean that we didn't give Democrats what they needed.
