Sen. Joe Manchin has fired back at Pres. Trump’s criticism of the West Virginia Democrat for voting guilty on two articles of impeachment.

Manchin issued the response Saturday night on Twitter, a day after Trump tweeted that he was “very surprised & disappointed” with Manchin’s votes and claimed no president has done more for the state.Manchin said that “no Democrat has worked harder in a bipartisan way in the hopes that you would succeed.” He added that West Virginia residents “know exactly” who has worked day and night for the last five years to secure their health care and pensions, and “it wasn’t you.

“I’ve read the transcripts thoroughly & listened to the witnesses under oath,” Manchin said Saturday on Twitter. “Where I come from a person accused defends themselves with witnesses and evidence.” Manchin and Trump appeared to have a warmer relationship than the president has with most Democratic lawmakers. Trump invited him to the White House in August when the president presented former basketball player Bob Cousy with the Medal of Freedom. A month later, Manchin was again at the White House when Trump presented the Medal of Freedom to another former basketball great, West Virginia native Jerry West.

Whatever! democrats have nothing. Except the overthrow of freedom. Dangerous!

Can you hear the curse crashing through the forest.......

They should fire back. Turning the other cheek doesn't always work. TrumpIsACoward

Anyone with the cojones to vote guilty in that impeachment ISN'T a puppet. The puppets, with exception of Mitt Romney, were ALL REPUBLICAN. And America knows exactly who is pulling their strings!

Manchin is a weasel-always has been

Good for you, Joe! 🇺🇸💙🇺🇸🌊🌊🌊

IMPOTUS three just doesn't get it. Elected officials swear an oath to the office and country not to the president. He wants to be a dictator.

who cares - he’s toast next election

Sen_JoeManchin what exactly has realDonaldTrump done for Virginia? Seriously? I mean you do vote with the Republicans 53% of the time.

Have you noticed, when Trump get angry with someone, he wants the whole world to be angry at that person, and he goes out and recruit people to be on his side. ☎️He really thinks only he is right.

Vote Manchin out!!!!

He is toast

We need to declare Trump insane.

Trump hates anyone that puts their country first. It took tremendous courage for Manchin to vote for what is right despite the cost to him personally. Trump will never understand that kind of selflessness.

We support you Joe

So sorry Joe Trump2020Landslide

Yay! Someone has a backbone!
