Yes but Manchin and another were threatening with no votes so...

And negotiating with yourself is considered a victory. You should have see the fight they had with themself. They thrashed themselves.

What about Manchin?

This is always what happens. The republicans participate to get amendments and then refuse to vote for the bills. #ACA

Yes ... What a waste of time! ... Biden is still stuck in this image of "the good guy that crosses the isle" ... Unless ... like Mitch McConnell ... he starts playing hardball ... the Dems will get little else passed.

Dems got thier pork

They seem very weak as usual. Too busy worrying about bi-partisan and “meeting in the middle” all the time. How do you do that with people living in another dimension without facts?

I mean, the reduced ue (from $400 to $300) was bc of a Dem.

Also, they knew they weren't gonna get any GOP votes. That's why it was so important that Manchin & that Kristen chick was on board.

Does every bit of Dem progress have to be analyzed as a negative?
