$350,000,000,000
To bailout poorly run democratic states. The criteria for distribution is 4Q ‘20 unemployment rate so states that locked down long and hard like CA, WA, NY, MI, and NJ will benefit the most. FL and TX? Not so much.
My buddy honestly asked me early in the pandemic, “what governor would intentionally tank his state economy for political gain? They are accountable to the people”. He also asked how gov’s from Dem “fortress states” like CA and NY helped the presidential election when they we’re going to be blue regardless.
It’s about closing ranks and making it all about OMB. And now the rewards come. Do you think Coumo would be getting the protection he’s getting now if he had broken rank and opened his economy.

Great points....applies to JBE as well....I bet a significant chunk of that number is earmarked for LA.
