I think the bigger questions is how some of THESE Senators will vote with ZERO GOP cover:Alaska - Mark Begich (D)

Colorado - Mark Udall (D)

North Carolina - Kay Hagan (D)

Virginia - Mark Warner (D)

Montana - Max Baucus, D

Montana - Jon Tester, D

South Dakota - Tim Johnson D

Arkansas - Mark Pryor D

And ther are OTHER Dims who come from mostly "conservative" states that won't be at all comfortable with this SAN FRANCISCO WINGNUT LIBERAL bill.

You can BET that this will fracture the dims, not the GOP.

It will be a COLOSSAL defeat for the new president. Yeah, when a bill is finally passed, they'll give him all the credit...but it'll be a "conservative" bill with over 1/2 the money going to tax cuts and infrastructure...or no bill at all.
