No, polling does not show that such a large, and expensive bill is popular. If those polled are shown how much the reconciliation bill will cost, it is very unpopular. And elections are a far better barometer of the American public than polling. In case you hadn't noticed, polls got the last few elections very wrong. Biden only won because good people, on both sides, were sick of Trump. How else do you explain the number of split tickets, Biden for president, Republicans for everything else. Democrats lost seats in the House, and only hold the Senate through the VP. And we wouldn't have won Georgia, if Trump hadn't convinced Republicans their vote didn't count. Democrats hardly got a 'progressive" mandate, but are holding onto control of Congress by the skin of their teeth. If this bill really were popular, it could be broken into its components, and passed. The fact House Democrats don't do that, proves they know how unpopular this bill is.
