Manchin and Sinema are not the only reason we’re not taking greater action on healthcare, climate change, canceling student debt etc. The president could do more to help with those things right now.

Marianne you're old enough to remember 2009; no matter how many Democrats we elect they will always pretend to be obstructed by one or two Democrats

A lot of Democrats worked very hard to pass Build Back Better. It’s not a monolithic group of people

It is a tightly controlled group of people. There is Power available in Washington all the time, just for the picking it up and using it - but the elected "Progressives" in the Dem party "Vote Alone" when the chips are down, and make certain the boat is not rocked. #PalookaParty

I dunno about that, they seem to operate as a monolithic block. The supposedly "good" Democrats are never willing to cross leadership or go off the official script. They all play their part in this charade where they pretend to want to do good things but are stopped by one person
