Biden's role. For all of the frustration with Manchin and Sinema, there's also clear and growing irritation on Capitol Hill with Biden.
Not with his agenda, which has wide and deep support throughout the vast majority of both caucuses. Not with his team or their efforts. But with Biden specifically. This ties directly into the frustration with Manchin and Sinema, and the belief among some Democrats that if Manchin told them exactly what he wanted, or demanded they come along, that's what would happen.
That doesn't appear to be Biden's read on those two members -- or the moment, according to people familiar with the conversations. Sinema, as he has had with Sen.
Overall though, Psaki wouldn't delve deeper into Biden's approach, noting, "We're obviously in a very sensitive time right now in these discussions, a pivotal time in these discussions. A separate White House official bristled at the idea Biden could "just snap his fingers and say, 'I'm President, get in line.
Manchin and Sinema are not the same. Both members have played their cards close to the vest, revealing very little publicly about what exactly it is they will get behind. That's strategic, but for two very different reasons -- something that is critical to understanding this moment.
These members aren't monolithic, have dramatically different approaches and significantly different concerns. That makes the effort to bring them on aboard all the more complicated and time consuming. Manchin said earlier this month that he wanted a " strategic pause " on the bigger social safety net plan.
When folks scratch their heads wondering why Manchin is not giving a topline, not hurrying to the negotiating table, not engaging in intensive back and forth with his colleagues on the minutia of health policy or revenue raisers, it's not a secret. He's said it plain and simple, publicly and privately. He's not comfortable moving forward right now with a massive piece of legislation at a time when he has concerns about inflation.
He's just not ready. The White House has gone to great lengths to address his concerns and lay out in specific detail on economic grounds how and why the proposal addresses the very issues he's raising.
Biden, cognizant of the dynamics, didn't press Manchin for a specific commitment, but instead spent a good part of their meeting talking about the merits of the programs and proposals inside, how they track with Manchin's goals and why they are a necessity in this moment, according to one person familiar with the meeting. But Biden did stress the urgency of that moment as well, something that simply hasn't moved Manchin to this point. Manchin's not hiding the ball on what he is doing here. He says it every day.
He believes this process is going to take time, and that it should. On progressives threat to vote "no" on the infrastructure bill? It's not good for the country," he said. Senate colleagues watching Sinema, however, argue she's harder for them to read. For one, Sinema is very strategic and practical about who she is sharing her perspective with.
It's not her style to lay out every provision she is upset by in the press nor is it her disposition to talk to every one of her colleagues about those concerns. She goes directly to the majority leader, the committee chairmen and yes, the President and his staff. Over the last two weeks, there haven't been many days where SInema hasn't talked at least via text with White House staff. Sinema is described by those who know her as an operator and someone who goes into the weeds on policy.
When something is drafted one way, aides and members say, she's got to understand why. It means that things take time and at times, it's means she is not going to say yes until she absolutely means it.
