As painful as reformists will find it, the narrower bill suggested by the NYT--limit subversion, suppression, and gerrymandering, plus preclearence--is more like the $2 trillion dollar starting point. Even from that starting point, most elements would wind up compromised away. — PolitiTweet.org

I should note that this is true under *any* scenario--even the one where Manchin gives up the filibuster. In my replies, there seems to be a belief that if the Dems axe the filibuster that HR1 can just pass. And that's not so. — PolitiTweet.org
