They don’t give a fuck if he leaves. Their fate is already written. They are set to lose both the house and senate regardless.

Manchin switch would automatically cause Dems to lose control of the Senate Majority and become the minority. Schumer gets the boot, Mitch or Grassley becomes majority leader and investigations begin much earlier during campaign season before the midterms. All Dem initiatives end.
If Schumer keeps his promises, Dems retain control through Jan 20, 2023. That would mean +/-6 months of continued Dem control of both houses. A lot more grifting, shenanigans and obfuscation can happen in 6 months. I'm sure this matters to them.
Manchin switching parties may not a thermonuclear bomb on the Dems, but certainly an A-bomb.
