left spending agenda with one advisor telling politico, quote, the biden administration doesn t understand that the only thing people care about is the inflation, gas prices, and the economy. of course there s no messaging and they don t have any idea what the message is. they are living in lala land. kirsten synema has agreed to back the bill saying we have agreed to remove the carried tax provision, advance manufacturing, and boost our clean economy in the senate s budget reconciliation. biden saying we ve taken a step towards reducing inflation and the costs for american families. i look forward to the senate taking up the legislation and passing it as soon as possible. at the center of this, joe man chin whose support earlier this week really paved the way to head to a vote. here s what he had to say about getting republicans onboard. you said this week you think that republicans should vote i would like to think i talk to my republican friends, they want to mak
west virginiians are deeply anti-woke. and as a result, i think the more that manchin has tried to appease biden and schumer, the weaker he s become. so, i think he s in a different situation than the than sinema is. she s in a place she s always been sort of independent. her voting record is not quite as independent as her voice. but she in the end has always been sort of one step away from the democratic party. and i think her gamble is there s a three-way race. in a three-way race, she might attract enough independents and moderates for the democratic party and the republican party to win a three-way race. i m not sure that s the right calculus. i think part of us just discussed years ago, as you

masks asking questions and puts it on and walks back out. there s no common sense in this in any way, shape, or form. i don t understand how the president and the press secretary is the face of this administration. let s face it, continues to attack joe manchin as they did over the weekend. joe manchin did what was common sense, laurence, which was in west virginia polls have president biden at 65% disapproval, three quarters of west virginiians oppose the build back better bill. if you re joe manchin, what else should you have done than say, you know what? if i m against this, i m sure if we spend trillions for, that will increase inflation more, we re at a 40-year high, we should press pause on this until we have a better idea of where we are from an economic perspective or an inflation perspective. but the administration tried to go ahead with this anyway, democrats did. and this is something they will rue the day they decided to go
