If You Think Progressives Won't Compromise w/ Centrists, You Have It Backwards. Liberals are begging

39. If Manchin wants to wait until next year I feel like one of the things he is doing

is limiting how many times they can use reconciliation (what did they find out - they can use it 2x a year?). If they miss this round it will then have to be used next year and takes away another potential bill for reconciliation next year while wasting the opportunity this year. Plus I thought I saw that he advocated for a 3T+ bill during the TFG administration.

Sinema is just more craven. She specifically lobbied for things during her campaign which she is now acting coy about.

In some ways it reminds me of when I saw republican congressmen speaking on the floor advocating everyone should have a healthcare plan like they have, a safe thing to say when you believe it will never come to a vote. But if in the future it does come to a vote, well now you have to find a way to get out of supporting it because you never did in the first place.
