No one believes it and people don’t care about the truth. Trump claimed his tax cut was paid for. It wasn’t. People hate BBB because it’s Biden’s idea. It could be paid for 10x over and the Maga folks still wouldn’t care. They’re the same uneducated folks who credit him with cutting taxes not realizing they got pennies while the rich got everything. They view BBB as a giant “handout”. The right has portrayed the democrats as the party of “handouts”.

They will happily take advantage of the child tax credit and the pre-k schooling and the lower drug prices. The Democrats need to stop bickering and start advertising the benefits to real working class folks that BBB will bring.
