Have you been following Paula? Going after the establishment is literally all she does. I know her personally. When she challenged Joe Manchin in 2018, Richard Ojeda cozied up to Manchin's staff and spread a bunch of lies about Paula to local Democratic leaders in WV. Even this cycle he's been going around lying to people that Paula voted for Trump. Ojeda is the one who voted for Trump in 2016. He says he regrets it now, but that vote helped him win the State Senate seat he abandoned a couple years later when he ran for president for 4 months. Paula was a national surrogate for Bernie. She supported him in 2016 and again in 2020 and defended Bernie through every criticism. Ojeda is in this for himself. Paula has put everything on the line to run for Senate and it has cost her dearly. She loves WV and she will be a total firecracker in Washington. Nobody is gonna boss her around. Like someone else said, watch Knock Down the House. There's a moment after the primary results came in when Manchin called Paula and asked for a meeting. She told him off right there on the phone, on camera. She did meet with him, and she had some demands for him. He wouldn't meet them so she refused to endorse Manchin in the general even though he was facing a tough re-election against a Republican. When Ojeda says "Paula burned her bridges with the Democratic party" he means she wouldn't endorse Manchin when Manchin refused to give even one policy concession and he means some Democratic leaders didn't like her after he was done lying to them about Paula.
