(7,509 posts)Its always the vast Democratic majority giving concessions to a radical vanishing minority.
That is a shit negotiating tactic.
We do not need to fashion a perfect bill for Manchinema.
We give them a "less bad" bill and tell them to take it or leave it.
Then they can go home to whatever constituents they serve and brag about how they "saved money" or some bullshit.
