Joe Manchin says he will oppose a $3.5 trillion budget bill

Here we go again

he was never a yes vote to begin with so no changes here. Why can't they just drop the price tag and pass this shit...

This in-fighting happened when obama was in office and look where that got us. Why can't Dems see they need a major W after the ass-whooping the pass couple of month in the news and media.

If Manchin indeed refuses to negotiate on the 3.5 trillion, he’s also likely going to sink the bipartisan infrastructure bill in the House — several members have said they aren’t voting for one without the other.

Gonna take some creative negotiating from Biden and Schumer.

Nice!

I wanna think they always meant a 2.5 trillion budget but announced it as 3.5 trillion proposal so they get room to budge and negotiate.

I'm tired of this bull shit.

Where was he when Trump exploded national bdebt

i wanna think 1.5 trillion.

I feel progressives are going to sink it it they drop that low.

Hoe Manchin being a hoe

Just wait till (if) they add immigration to it. The R's will start screaming amnesty, border crisis, and fear monger using Afghanistan refugee nonsense. This will sway the moderates. Things are not looking good for Biden and Dems in general and Rs are goign to take advantage of that, amplify, and take to to midterms.

We don't even know how the parliamentarian will rule on the Byrd.

SCOTUS is pumping out BS backwards decisions thanks to the lovely additions by Trump (MAGA DACA trio, where you at?). So if nothing happens via legislation for us and DACA goes to SCOTUS eventually... yeah.

We're toast.
