"tranny tax credit"? a lot of the stuff in BBB are long-term social conservative agenda items designed to bolster the family unit. Paid family leave, child tax credits, universal pre-K...you think suburbanites and middle class families don't want that shyt? it benefits them more than anyone

good, hopefully they pass it and it's a huge success

 

[dtownreppin214]

wow

Politically speaking, he's right. It's not moving anyone to go to the ballot box. Maybe If this thing got done on the original timeline but not now after it's been dragging through the mud.

A lot of people in DC media ask those trolling questions because they are trolls or functionally DC-brained (IE, mentally disabled). Matt Iglesias, Chris Ciilizza, everyone on CNN and MSNBC, etc.

It irks me because you see a lot of that same idiot logic with people on here.

Robert Reich was just on CNN with Erin Burnett and John Kasich and he went in on her for the bullshyt. Burnett was out there juelzing for the rich and doing anti-Prog propaganda

I don't see a messaging issue that some of you are talking about

 

[dtownreppin214]

I don't think so. They know they don't have any Republican votes on the BIF.

 

[BaltimoreTwilightMarauder]

wow

It's important but no one cares. Its not a sexy or interesting issue.

 

[88m3]

Liberals, moderates strike deal on Biden agenda, clearing way for votes

 

[BaltimoreTwilightMarauder]

Progressives gonna vote for this corporate handout bill and then be like:

Progressives: "ok now its time for it for the real bill!"

Manchin: "What bill?

 

[MoneyTron]

I’ll take it. Let’s get some shyt done.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

Well, I was wrong.

Progressive leadership is . Even if they made a deal with the moderate House Dems, that doesn't mean shyt if Manchin and Sinema are still nos in the Senate.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

And we reach 218 votes. BIF Passes with 209 Dems and 10 Republicans.

And with that, progressives give away any leverage they had.

 

[wire28]

We did it!

 

[King Kreole]

 

[No1]

Well, I was wrong.

Progressive leadership is . Even if they made a deal with the moderate House Dems, that doesn't mean shyt if Manchin and Sinema are still nos in the Senate.

I disagree. They did the best that they could but they know the tendency to blame progressives for everything and now Biden will owe them one.

 

[AquaCityBoy]

hey did the best that they could but they know the tendency to blame progressives for everything

They were going to get blamed no matter what they did, so that's irrelevant.

Biden will owe them one

nikka what?
