Manchin Booed by Democrats over Concerns of 'Infrastructure' Expense

Sen. Joe Manchin was reportedly booed Thursday by Democrat Senators for raising concerns about the expense of the $3.5 trillion "Infrastructure" price tag.

"Tensions are torquing up among Democrats over the reconciliation bill - or, more precisely, over its proposed $3.5 trillion price tag."

"Manchin views the growing national debt as a heavy burden that will drag down the economy, threaten national security and impose a heavy burden on future generations - fairly typical budget-hawk beliefs," Playbook continued.

"Does Manchin's position - and that he was bringing it up at a meeting of his fellow Senate Dems - mean that we're in store for even more haggling over the price tag of the reconciliation bill? Stay tuned."

On July 23, a top pollster of President Joe Biden's war chest alerted the White House that "Voters are really experiencing" inflation.

The Producer Price Index rose 7.3 percent in June from 12 months earlier, the largest demand since 12-month data was first introduced in 2010.

On average during the pre-pandemic Trump administration, the index rose by around 0.2 percent per month.
