If you reach his Washington post opinion piece, that’s the most annoying part. He keeps talking about now it’s time to get down to business both sides working together. When he knows that’s never gonna happen. So he’s basically just lying to the electorate.
“With the Senate split 50-50, we always knew Manchin, who leans conservative, might pose problems for Biden’s agenda”
It does not seem Biden thought this. He ran on being the only democrat that would be able to get republicans to support his agenda. And here he is having to compromise just to get Manchin on board.
Yeah, I never thought Biden, or even Jesus Christ, would be able to get the Republicans to anything on any issue. This is what they do, they just obstruct obstruct obstruct until they win the next election. I’m still not entirely clear on whether Biden expected them to negotiate, or whether he knew they wouldn’t.
Tell Manchin: you can protect the filibuster or you can protect the right to vote. Which is more important?
