MSNBC, Politico journos mocked for understating opposition to Dem spending bills while hitting Sinema, Manchin

A pair of media tweets went viral on Friday for their attempts to understate the opposition to the Democrat spending bills.

"Look at the Senators who are making these decisions here... Manchin, less than one percent of the U.S. is what he represents. Sinema, just about two percent... and yet they hold all the power right now," Melber is quoted by his show's Twitter account. 

The tweet included stats from the 2020 U.S. Census showing Manching representing only "0.5%" of the country while Sinema representing "2.1%."
