Senator McMansion and His Misappropriation of the word “Elite”

--

He’s a hypocrite badly in need of a Thesaurus

I once had the misfortune of meeting this garish ghoul of a visage who referred to himself as “Senator Joe Manchin” — this was a few years ago, pre pandemic, and I didn’t like him then and I most certainly don’t like him now.

At the time, my boyfriend and myself were dining outside and we began to notice people coming out of the other restaurants and offices so they could have the ‘honor’ of shaking his hand — he comes by our table and shakes hands with my boyfriend and then says to me, “Hello there, pretty lady, I’m Senator Joe Manchin” and I stayed seated, did NOT shake his hand, but rather just said “Yes, I know who you are” and he looked rather taken aback, as if this type of reaction was something that he was not used to —

In a recent article from the New York Times, “Senator McMansion” was quoted as saying this: “I’m just not, so you know, I cannot accept our economy or basically our society moving toward an entitlement mentality,” Manchin said last week. “I’m more of a rewarding, because I can help those who are going to need help if those who can help themselves do so.”

Okay, first of all — this horrid troll has a horrendous use of the English language — sentence fragments galore — Joe, you seriously need…
