I think this gives Dems a chance to reset and reintroduce parts of BBB with less negative sentiment attached to it, and everyone getting to save face. [/quote]

They already tried that.  Right before Manchin said it was dead, with the sole objection of Bernie Sanders, the Senate Dems offered to give him the pen and said "you don't like parts of it, strike them out, you make BBB into something you would vote for."

Manchin's lazy answer to that was "no, it's dead."

Manchin is not operating on any principled stance whatsoever.  He is not operating in good faith.  His latest arbitrary reason was "the debt is over $30t."  That one never came up before.  He just keeps moving goalposts and making up new excuses.  And sorry, all of that shows plainly that he is not the hero anyone wants to tout him as.[/quote]

It was still called BBB and that name is now toxic. The individual pieces are popular. But few people are aware of what's actually in it (including me - and I am overly invested in politics). I think you could craft a new bill that leaves behind some stuff and is called something new, and bring Manchin in earlier, and - unicorns. I don't know. One dares to dream.[/quote]
