of the democratic party. so to completely forget about him right now seems like an oversight and the comeback is real. i mean, like i said, he has $18 million to be influential. so he is an influential player in politics the and just because he has fallen, he s he s not letting himself stay down for too long. howie: he s entitled to the resumption of innocence if this presumption of innocence if it goes to a courtroom. he called the sheriff who brought the charge a cowboy sheriff who is playing politics. he said he doesn t know how it leaked. there are questions of new york and albany politics swirling around a this. thank you for a very good conversation, tara palmeri and emily jachinsky. up next, the press touted a big budget deal for president biden before he went to europe but it quickly fell apart.

sinema, joe manchin, bernie sanders and the like to get behind the bill to the it out of the senate. never mind that $1.2 trillion infrastructure plan that is still awaiting action in the house. so big questions remain as democrats try to get a deal on the larger plan this week, guys. that s for sure. manu raju, appreciate the reporting as always. joining us to talk about all of this, cnn senior political analyst, david gergen, advisor to nixon, ford, and reagan. always good to have you on. thanks, jim. it s good to be here. you ve seen, witnessed and been involved with your share of white house negotiations with the hill. i wonder, we were talking all about manchin s sticking points and now we re talking about sinema s. do you see these as part of a negotiation, trying to the best deal possible, or a potential deal-breaker? well, i think it can be both. a lot depends on where you sit in this thing. if you re a progressive, you

deadline, but we are starting to hear coalescing around something in the next 48 hours. steny hoyer says he believes that s possible. jon tester believes it will be done by friday. can you state confidently in your view the democrats will at least have a framework deal by the end of this week? i wouldn t say confidently, but cautiously optimistic that things are coming together. look, this is going to be an impactful thing for working families. i mean this is huge. i think this should have been done 30 or 40 years ago. you re talking about a huge tax cut for families, middle class families, working class families who go out there and do everything right. you re talking about universal preschool. you re talking about community college. it s to be determined what s in there, but what we re trying to do is put money in the pockets of people and get this country ready to outcompete china. that s what s at stake here so we ve got to get this thing

done. you just describe it this bill in a way there that is frankly not been branded that way, right? it s been talked about based on the top line figure, $3.5 trillion, now around $2 trillion as a big budget deal, et cetera. not as a tax cut with the child tax credit, not as the expansion of universal pre-k. you ran for president in 2016 arguing that democrats have to run on the economy, have to have an economic message. have they failed in 2020, i could say. has your party failed to do so effectively? i think a lot of the conversations have gotten lost in the number and the process. we ve got to focus on how this is going to help people. in my mind this is about putting money in people s pockets and outcompeting china, period, that s it. you go through all of the items in there, again, paid family leave, capping child care expenses, investing in education, the new economy so that we can manufacture and make
