...yeah this was the whole point of my post. As I said, Manchin was never going to be a Yes. So either you point that out by being combative or you bury it by being conciliatory. I'm arguing that being combative is the better path because at least you can marshal anger and direct it towards political activity. Biden's conciliatory strategy just makes him look like a weak idiot and does nothing to help the political fortunes of the Democrats. The problem is the Democratic establishment isn't willing to call out the cancerous elements within the party, they just default to the "elect more Democrats!" refrain so they can continue reaping in fundraising cash and not have to do the hard work of actually governing.

They coulda capitalized when people were kayaking outside the man's yacht just to try and get a discussion with him about the bills. There were opportunities to really load up the pressure on him.

Why do politicians always use the deficit as excuse when they don’t want to support a bill with any form of spending attached? But they would bloat a bill and decrease it’s efficiency without a care in the world about said spending ..:russ:

Because it works in deluding the American media and public. GOP been playing that game for 40 years.

Infrastructure bill passed a month ago.

@DEAD7 This is what I'm talking about. People think nothing is getting done, yet so many people don't even know that the infrastructure bill passed.
