Sen. Manchin Says He Won’t Vote for Sanders

West Virginia Senator and Democrat Joe Manchin says he will not vote for Bernie Sanders if he becomes the Democratic nominee for the 2020 election, telling Fox News that Sanders’ agenda “isn’t practical where I come from.”

Manchin was asked if he would vote for Trump if Sanders was his opponent. Manchin didn’t directly answer the question but instead offered “Let’s just say I’m going to make decisions based on what’s best for my country and my state.”

One big issue that Manchin has with Sanders? Medicare for all. Manchin doesn’t understand how the country can pay for medicare for all when “we can’t even pay medicare for some.”
