Joe manchin has made those comments at that radio show after he had had what the white house described as a pretty conciliatory or pleasant conversation with president biden on sunday night. clearly, relations between these two men need some mending if the president is going to be able to pursue his big domestic agenda. even to do a downsize bill that has some of the programs that were in build back better and not others, not at all guaranteed democrats are going to be able to heal some of the f...

Amount of money i thought we could raise in it and pay for everything. so they have had that from day one. >> phil mattingly is out front with me now. phil, we are learning the president and manchin. they spoke on the phone last night. is there still really hope for a deal? >> hope is probably the best way to frame things at this point in time. i think at the white house. but i think that call is part of the reason why at least temperature appear to have call cooled over over the last 24 hours. ...

Elsewhere in the democratic party. >> sahil, i want to read something else that apparently the senator from west virginia said during that radio interview. quote, they know the real reason what happened. they wont tell you and im not going to. its not the president. its the staff. they drove some things and they put some things out that were absolutely inexcusable. they know what it is, and thats it. is the senator having a temper tantrum about some staffer? is that really what tanked the bill? ...

They say senator manchin is standing in the way of. it is important to note that president biden were told did, indeed, sign off on this statement going out and in particular the parts of the statement that point out that senator manchin has breached his commitments to the president. were told senator manchin in a radio interview said he expected this kind of a forceful response from the white house. but now of course the question is how do they, indeed, move forward. and the white house saying ...

In the last hour manchin expand on the that stunning announcement during a local radio interview. he also responded to the blistering criticism from the white house and from his fellow democrats. >> im not blaming anybody. i knew where they were, and i knew what they could and could not do. they just never realized it because they figure surely to god we can move one person. surely we can badger and beat one person up. surely we can get enough protesters to make that person uncomfortable enough ...

Last week when the decision was made to punt the build back better bill into next year saying the punt was happening because the negotiations were now essentially all about prig him along. manchin has enjoyed the cover of being one of at least two more conservative democrats in the senate who have had issues with this about i will and part of a larger group in the white house who have had problems with it and he is basically hung out to dry as the only member opposed to the paid family leave pro...

The white house press secretary is not going to litigate that or frame that conversation from the white house podium. we dont know if they have spoken yet. we dont believe they have spoken yet since the bomb shell yesterday, but she would not confirm that. certainly trying to take the temperature down a little bit, if you will, heading into the holidays. key, joe manchin is as important to this as he ever was. >> jeff zeleny, manu raju, thank you both. in a radio interview, senator joe manchin...

Danger is inside, as manchin said that in that radio interview, he said its not the president, it is the staff. it is the progressive staff, ron klain and the people he hired who are pushing this far left wing agenda at a time when medicare is running out of money. "the wall street journal" rode today in the editorial, if he wants to make a pivot, hes got to jenison. >> dana: he and biden together had an agreement that they were going to do a joint statement say we were going to push us off, wer...

President himself. quote, we will continue to press him to see if he will reverse his position yet again to honor his prior commitments and be true to his word. well see what the white house has to say today when press secretary jen psaki holds her daily briefing in just 30 minutes. meantime, manchin responded to the backlash this morning in a radio interview with a west virginia station. >> i understand staff. its not the president, its the staff. and they drove some things and they put some th...

To piece this back together, theyre going to have to find a way to meet his demand on sunset. so far, theyve been talking past each other. this has been a huge, huge failure of communication between democratic leaders and senator manchin. the white house clearly believes that he suddenly, abruptly changed position and hes going back on his word. and manchinargued, as he did in this west virginia radio interview, that he has been clear all along, that he doesnt want these expiring provisions to g...
