Column: Progressives, give Biden the victory he needs and the Democrats a chance to win in 2022 (via latimesopinion)
Unless progressive Democrats follow that advice, they stand to get nothing in their standoff with moderates over the breadth and cost of the party’s 10-year package of infrastructure, climate change and social welfare initiatives.
Retreat is a maddening prospect, I know. There are many more progressives in Congress and yet, as they’re quick to complain, they’re often the ones forced to give ground to a smaller band of centrists.The stubborn self-righteousness of the two moderate Democratic holdouts in the Senate — Sens. Joe Manchin III of West Virginia and Kyrsten Sinema of Arizona — makes it all the harder to swallow any concessions.
It’s as true today as when 19th century German statesman Otto von Bismarck first uttered these words: “Politics is the art of the possible, the attainable — the art of the next best.” Biden has signaled as much: In a private caucus with House Democrats on Friday afternoon at the Capitol, he suggested a bottom line in the range of $2 trillion.
