Progressives are threatening to tank Biden’s $1 trillion infrastructure plan, which centrists support, if the moderate faction does not also back the broader $3.5 trillion social spending bill that is packed with their priorities.

Maher noted that House progressives are ‘very mad’ at Sinema and Manchin for blocking the broader bill.

‘They’re mad at them because they’re not progressive enough — forgetting that they only got elected because they’re not progressives! They’re moderates,’ Maher said.

‘Here’s my question: Does spending more money make you a better person?’ Maher asked.

‘And maybe these two, Sinema and Manchin, do they might have their thumb more on the pulse on the average Democrat in the country?’ he asked.
