From what I gather, the Child Tax Credit under the proposed spending bill would likely become permanent, not just a response to the pandemic. This proposal in part intends to buy the votes of the recipients, one could argue.

In fact, one news report (more an opinion piece) dwells on the economic need of low-income families. See here:

60% of Senator Manchin's constituency are against the bill. He's covered.

I don’t like the Biden BBB at all. But let’s be honest . Manchin is a senator from a highly red state that faces re-election in the presidential election test of 2024.

This is all politics to him.

I don't think so, Manchin has a history of doing this.

He IS a politician! Why should he NOT play politics. It's about time for politicians to have some principals and scruples. Those are two qualities that Stupid Joe has never displayed. The idiot is still claiming his policies are NOT fanning the flames of triple digit inflation. Economists are terrified at the prospects of his "print more money" policies. LET'S BE HONEST? You seem to have a dislike for anyone who chooses responsibility for their actions and Manchin appears to be in a very vocal minority in his own "political" party! He ought to be hailed as a hero.

Like Trump, Manchin has an ego thing of being the most powerful man in the world.
His coal... Burn Baby Burn**[ a phrase associated with the 1965 Watts Riots] Coal is a major pollution fuel. Manchin is selfish and the world will burn with global warming in excess of 2* C
