Double-talk from GM; double-talk from Mitch. It's the strategy to kill viable agendas. It has been winning; like being nibbled to death by a duck.

Really, it's pathetic to think that anything these people say is other than PR spin on sociopathy. They know that the press and the Dems will cherry-pick the quotes that make them look good, so there are no consequences other than winning the PR game. As if BBB was even an intelligible marketing campaign anyway.

These words should be chilling to anyone who reads them: [...]But GM added that it also supports "the Business Roundtable in their efforts to support sound public policies that promote a thriving U.S. economy and supports the U.S workforce."

Someone should remind these corporations of the tax rates after WWII when the country was united.

I wish Biden and the Party would use a simpler and more honestly resonant messaging approach that opens people to hearing what you want to tell them: How about:

“Dems as well as Republicans share blame for leaving too many people behind as our economy globalized. The Republican solution is to beat their chests and blame others (the other). Our solution is to come together, to be better, to do better — #BuildBackBetter
