“I’ve never had more than three shells in a clip.”
Oh, yeah? Tell it to the Marines.
I got that expression from my father who was a WWII Army vet. I’ve always understood this phrase to refer to a whiney, illegitimate complaint in the Army in Europe that would never pass muster in the Marines, considering the hell that the Marines were going through at the time in the Pacific.
I was Navy myself, so this description of the phrase is interesting to me:
“He may tell that to the marines, but the sailors will not believe him.”

Anyway, bottom line is, Manchin talks like a schoolboy. The Second Amendment isn’t about his personal hunting experience. It’s about a lot more than that. A lot more.
