<p>Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) refused to go low on Wednesday evening when responding to controversial attacks made against him by Rep. Cori Bush (D-MO), who suggested that Manchin was racist for opposing Democrats&#8217; massive social spending bill.</p>
<p>“Joe Manchin does not get to dictate the future of our country,” Bush <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/cori-bush-unloads-senator-joe-manchin-hes-anti-black-anti-child-anti-woman-anti-immigrant">said</a> in a statement earlier this week. “I do not trust his assessment of what our communities need the most.”</p>
<p>Bush said that &#8220;Manchin’s opposition to the Build Back Better Act is anti-Black, anti-child, anti-woman, and anti-immigrant.&#8221;</p>
<p>Manchin was asked about Bush&#8217;s remarks during a Fox News interview on Wednesday night with anchor Bret Baier.</p>
<p>&#8220;I would just say the congresswoman doesn&#8217;t know me. She doesn&#8217;t know me,&#8221; Manchin responded. &#8220;And I&#8217;m happy to talk to her. I think maybe she will have a different opinion. Go home to West Virginia and ask people, and I think you will get a different opinion.&#8221;</p>
<p>&#8220;And this is a shame when we start this war — war of words. I&#8217;m not going to speak ill about any of my congressional friends and colleagues on the House side or the Senate side,&#8221; Manchin added. &#8220;We can have a difference of opinion. The rhetoric around here has gotten so harsh and so toxic that you can&#8217;t agree to disagree anymore. You can&#8217;t sit down and say, OK, I disagree with you, Bret. You&#8217;re going to say, OK, Joe, do we agree on the same problem? I said, yes. Let&#8217;s start working. Tell me what you think you would fix it. That&#8217;s not happening.&#8221;</p>
