Tim Kaine criticized his own party over the timing of the infrastructure and spending bills. During an interview on Sunday, Kaine said Democrats on Capitol Hill should have passed the two bills in October instead of letting internal party disagreements delay the vote.<\/p>\n<p>This comes as the House passed the Democrats\u2019 trillion-dollar infrastructure bill on Friday. The senator also claimed an earlier vote would have helped Democrat Terry McAuliffe win the state\u2019s governor race.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDemocrats blew the timing and as you know Margaret, in politics timing is everything. We\u2019ll get the bills done, but we\u2019re gonna get them done weeks after the election. We should\u2019ve had them done weeks before the election,\u201d said Kaine in an interview.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">\u201cBluntly, we blew it\u201d<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/timkaine?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@timkaine<\/a> tells <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/margbrennan?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@margbrennan<\/a> that Democrats botched timing on infrastructure vote before VA elections. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI&#8217;m not talking about progressives or moderates\u2026Democrats have majorities in both houses, and the American public expects us to deliver.\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/RPhhVg9RKU\">pic.twitter.com\/RPhhVg9RKU<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Face The Nation (@FaceTheNation) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/FaceTheNation\/status\/1457739769224572934?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 8, 2021<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>In the meantime, the Democrats\u2019 $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill is now awaiting Joe Biden\u2019s final approval.
