manchin has made clear, him and chris kristen sinema, they aren't comfortable with the price tag. it is possible the price tag is going to have to come down, which is going to tip a massive fight with the left. >> the other piece of the two-track, of course, is the bipartisan infrastructure bill. you can't have one without the other. >> right. >> in effect, by doing this, is he putting that long negotiated deal into danger as well? >> absolutely. these are tied together. progressives are furious with manchin. they are coming out swinging. they feel they've already compromised with the reconciliation package. they wanted 6 trillion. the budget allows 3.5 trillion. they feel they wasted time, and letting this drag out. you've seen members of the squad come out pretty forceful saying maybe we should hit the cancel button on this bill. ayanna pressley and other squad members saying they should hit the mute button on manchin.
