With Schumer’s self-imposed deadline of Christmas for Senate passage of Build Back Blunder, this is not the headline they wanted to see at this critical juncture.
It is likely to further solidify Manchin’s power position. He’s been raising inflation concerns for months. Could also give Cortez Masto and Hassan a reason to tap the brakes. Both Dems are extremely vulnerable in their re-election bids in states where BBB is not polling well. Tester’s support for BBB could get dicier as well.
The next two weeks will be very tense. Just 2 weeks to go, with the stakes getting higher with each passing day.
