This is what a successful presidency looks like, one that follows through on its promises concretely, rather than bloviating on it year after year.

Biden has objectively accomplished a lot in the first 7 months. Hope the American people actually pay attention.


Doesn't help that Cuomo finally decided to resign like 30 minutes after the bill's passing. His resignation is going to get a bulk of coverage.
Nah it just makes the news day better

Funny how I can't find anything in your recent post history directing such sentiment at far less compromising legislators like Manchin and Sinema.

Hahahaha well I definitely do not like Manchin and Sinema, but I’m referring to infra here and they are our current block

Manchin and Sinema tho should just go retreat to some luxury yacht resort and live happily ever after while letting the adults do their job

If Justice Dem self-promoters want to vote against what will undoubtedly be an incredibly popular and influential bill, I say go for it.  Voting NO on the main thing Dems are gonna run on in the 2022 midterms doesn't seem like an ace political move to me, but what do I know, my tweets don't get 168K likes.

I seem to recall throughout 2015-2020 "progressives" justifying their outlandish, unworkable, fantasy-land demands by saying "you have to demand more than you want so you meet in the middle to get what you actually want."  Or some variant of that thinking.  So in this negotiation, Biden started by demanding the most progressive spending plan imaginable, and then the furthest-right members of the caucus pared it down to something that's still pretty good.  But now apparently that "meet in the middle" strategy goes out the window, and if you don't agree to the original demand, we're not going to vote for it.  OK, so the entire thing was in bad faith?  Like these people are just children.  Folks, please stop electing idiot children to Congress -- they don't know how to govern, they don't know how to legislate, they don't know how to negotiate, and all they do is humiliate the party day after day after day.
The squad is the most damaging group in American politics today. They don’t care about progress they just want to make Biden look bad so they can say “see I told you so! The establishment sucks!”

Again - I can't even imagine the sheer amount of privilege you have to call the group you disagree with on negotiation tactics worse than the Capitol rioters. Putting aside the fact that Liam is trying to dictate how Democrats should act when he's barely even a pledge, it really is the most privileged statement I've seen on this forum.

But on the other hand, he's saying what many on this forum are too afraid to.
Well it’s their stalling of Biden’s agenda that are going to give the people you mentioned as well as these other crazy right wing groups a platform come 2022/2024

Let me be clear. I would support anybody in the squad over Donald Trump or Ron Desantis I said they where damaging cause I felt they where aiding Trump. Sorry for the confusion I have caused!

Biden is a good president IMO and I don’t want to see him go and be replaced by someone like Trump again, and I feel like passing this would make his re election a lot more likely, I also support what’s in the bills as they would help the economy across the world, so naturally I want this done ASAP.

"I don't know f---ing anything about this bill but I'm pretty sure it's really bad."

Sounds like a joke, but this is literally a conversation I had two days ago on one of my groupchats that has a bunch of progressives.  They all decided, after Biden made the deal, that they hated it and it shouldn't pass at all!  Eventually after some arguing, one of them said, "what is actually in the bill?"  Like she literally didn't even know.  And after I listed ten things that were in the bill the entire GroupChat just went completely dead and the conversation was never resumed.

I don't think we should be trying too hard to market this bill to the American people yet since we may market it using things that are later taken out, which they'll see as a betrayal of trust.

As Pelosi once famously said, "we have to pass the bill so you can find out what's in it!"

Biden may not be doing the popular thing but he is doing the right thing. Keep fighting until the very end.

Someone tell me: What is "progressive" about holding the infrastructure bill hostage?

These people should be called regressives.
“YAAAAS QUEEN KEEP BLOCKING ANY REAL PROGRESS FROM BEING MADE!!! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️“

What comments on AOC’s lives are basically saying.

Hope she gets to have her little insta live, after all the damage she and her idiots have caused.
