NYT: Bipartisan infrastructure plan exposing cracks in Democrat Party

[Counselor706]

The New York Times admitted Tuesday the crumbling bipartisan infrastructure plan “is exposing cracks” in the Democrats.

“The brewing fight, which pits progressives against moderates more aligned with the president’s tactics, is exposing cracks in the party’s fragile strategy for enacting its economic plans,” the Times wrote.

President Joe Biden and Republicans stuck a $1.2 trillion deal that excludes far-left “wish-list items that Republicans have rejected, such as universal preschool and community college access, a health care expansion and a broad effort to combat climate change.”

“But progressive House members,” the Times continued, “have begun questioning the depth of that commitment, particularly after Mr. Biden walked back a threat he made to condition the narrower bill on the more costly one.”

Now I don't consider myself a leftie, you can see my post history to see that, but these things are pretty standard, basic stuff really.

Disagreements aren't cracks.

It was a bipartisan compromise. The nature of a compromise is that both sides get something they want and get something they don't want.

Progressives and conservatives alike won't be happy 100%>>>if they were, it wouldn't be a compromise.
