The Democratic senator said that Biden's remarks about closing coal plants 'are the reason the American people are losing trust' in the president.
Senator Joe Manchin, a West Virginia Democrat, criticized President Joe Biden over his comments about closing coal plants across the country, calling them 'divorced from reality' just a few days before the midterm elections.During a speech in California on Friday, the president said that coal plants cost too much money and that his administration will 'be shutting these plants down all across America' and have 'wind and solar' energy instead.
'The senator's remarks come during a busy weekend for Biden and Democrats who are trying to gain support from voters for Tuesday's midterm elections. Biden is rallying in Pennsylvania on Saturday and Florida on Sunday while Vice President Kamala Harris is set to make a stop in Illinois on Sunday.'It seems his positions change depending on the audience and the politics of the day.
