Joe Biden was forced to scramble to Capitol Hill Friday afternoon to discuss the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill currently stuck in the House.
Biden barely works so for him to make a trip up to The Hill on a Friday afternoon to meet with the House Democrat Caucus shows just how desperate he is to make something happen.
Biden ignored reporters as he shuffled into a meeting with members of the Democrat Caucus.
Before going into the meeting, Joe Biden grabbed Pelosi’s hand like a nursing home patient and assured bystanders the deal would eventually get done.
“We’re going to get this done. It doesn’t matter when. It doesn’t matter whether it’s in six minutes, six days, or six weeks. We’re going to get it done,” said Biden.
According to reporters present in the caucus meeting, at the end of his remarks, Joe Biden offered to take questions from members but his aides jumped in and stopped him.
Biden did not take any questions from Democrat lawmakers.

According to a Politico reporter, Biden’s message inside the meeting: “Even a smaller bill can make historic investments,” Biden said of Dems’ social spending bill.
The infrastructure bill “ain’t going to happen until we reach an agreement on the next piece of legislation.”
One more BIDEN message to Dems:
“Let’s try to figure out what we are for in reconciliation… and then we can move ahead," he said.

Just 24 hours ago White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki said Joe Biden will work with Democrat lawmakers this weekend to get the infrastructure deal done.
“Uh, we’re open. He’s available. He’s been making calls this morning. He’s open to having visitors. He’s open to going places,” Psaki said.
But he won’t take any questions because his staffers won’t let him.
