The democrats don't need support. They need to be removed.
I wonder if it would work to threaten Manchin etc with primaries or even 3rd party runs if they don't fall in line like Big3 was saying. Like you could even just pick one bill that's a deal breaker and be like vote for this or we're going to help get you out.

Yeah you would be helping a republican win those seats if you followed through on the threat though tbh I'm honestly not sure to what extent that would weaken the Democrats when these people already vote like Republicans. But i don't follow them close enough to say. They might serve some function. The only time i ever hear their names is when they are standing in the Democrats way.
