Democrats will reach a deal on Biden's agenda: Hillary Clinton on 'The View'
ABC News
The 2016 Democratic nominee compared members of the GOP to a cult in their following of the lie that the election was stolen.
Democrats will reach a deal on President Joe Biden's agenda in the Senate, former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton said Monday on "The View," but the passage of legislation like the $3.5 trillion infrastructure bill is "overdue."
"I think they will get a deal," Clinton said. "They have to get into the details-- so what would go into that bill that would fit into the amount of money that they're willing to spend-- and I actually think they'll get a deal. But it's going to be a roller coaster and it's not going to be pleasant."
Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and Kyrsten Sinema, D-Ariz., are at an impasse with the rest of the Democratic caucus when it comes to passing Biden's "Build Back Better Act," a spending plan set to fund a number of social programs.
"The bill has so much support for families who have gone through such a terrible time, and deserve to have support. And things that are way overdue, like paid family leave and support for quality child care-- things that other countries that like us have been doing for years and we are way behind in catching up," she said.
