Manchin warns Democrats: Hit 'pause' on Biden's $3.5T plan

[Lesh]

You folks lack the political capital for that. Keep dreaming.

Two Senate votes are the "political capitol" you're talking about and those those two votes are likely GONE if they let the Republicans walk over them

Manchin is just enjoying his 15 minutes of relevance.

Call it whatever you like. He comes from a state where inflation is going to cripple a higher percentage of his constituents than it will in wealthier states. He wants to be re-elected just like the rest and the same can be said of Sinema. I think it's already too late to stop the inflation but it isn't too late to stop the civil war that would follow the overreach your party would try without the filibuster. Snark as you like but this is the most dangerous situation America has seen since the first Civil War.

It's not that simple and you know it. It's closer to four or five votes in reality, what you suggest would require overwhelming public support. You don't have it. What you folks do have is a walking disaster in the White House, many things need to be addressed before trying anything new.

Inflation is not an issue here.

Reproductive rights and election rights ARE

They’re likely gone if they don’t vote with the GOP. It’s why they are doing it.

 

[MarcATL]

The amount needs to go up not down.

 

[Lesh]

If there ever was a logic to expand the court and end the filibuster it is NOW
