Pelosi is getting heat from her moderates that their people want a stimulus. So this trick....

I think the last stimulus the R's had was compromising 2.4 trillion. She will probably sneak in her bail out money for bankrupt dem states & mail in ballot money

Senate doesn’t have to even vote on this. Especially if some dumb bitch pushes an impeachment solely to tie up Senate business.

I hope the dem moderate voters aren't stupid enough to fall for this. IIRC most of them ran on backing Trump's policies and working with him. They are toast.

It’s simple really. Pass a bill for THE PEOPLE. Small business assistance, unemployment boosts that phase out as unemployment rate drops, and stimulus for a final boost. That’s all the bill should have.
All the other crap for schools, testing, bailouts, etc can be dealt with later. People still need help.

Bitch Pelosi probably still clinging to universal mail-in voting, getting rid of voter id in states that have it, and weaken the verification system for voter signatures.

If not for her trying to change the foundation of our voting process, a stimulus package wouldn't been sent out months ago.

There's no sneaking about it. They have been very public and open that these are red lines for them. They will not approve a 5 trillion dollar bill if it does have state and local bailout funds in it.

This is not the bill the dems will pass. Their bill will have bailout money for democrat cities that democrats allowed to be destroyed. They will probably have funding for BLM too.

Their original bill was about a trillion more than this, the GOP was about a trillion total.

They did not knock a trillion off the bill, they simply reduced the timeline for the proposed spending and kept all the spending categories in place, replete with a "claw back clause" to get the other trillion at a later date.

Course they can say "we keep trying to get the senate to pass these bills and they wont do it" Just like the other 50 or so ridiculous bills they have passed that they know no adult in the senate would vote for.

The GOP should put forth one more package that ONLY helps the people and make Pelosi have to look like shite rejecting it. Unemployment assistance, small business assistance and another round of $1200 payments and THAT IS ALL! Take out anything that has no direct way of impacting the people. Pelosi will shoot it down immediately and have no excuse to the American people why she didn’t approve it right before Election Day.
