There's a couple options for what is happening here. 1. Manchin lied to Biden about his commitment and went back on it (what Jayapal claims) 2. Manchin is lying to Jayapal about NOT committing to protect his reputation 3. Manchin really didn't commit, but Biden lied to Jayapal to get her to pass the infrastructure bill 4. Jayapal is just trying to save face for not blocking infrastructure when she had the chance Whatever way you slice it this just a complete mess of incompetence on display Unless someone can articulate what Manchin committed to, none of this is surprising or a breach of a commitment. He committed to negotiate. He did. They couldn't reach a deal because they were too far apart. This is like contracting to have a painting made and agreeing to buy it if you like it. --- September 1, 2003; November 4, 2007; September 2, 2013 Congratulations to DP Oblivion in the Guru Contest! <cite>red sox 777 posted [p:961082715] in Politics C...
