What is Mark Meadows trying to negotiate?

[pknopp]

Up until today, he was talking about 1.3 Trillion without specifics beyond more UI. Now he's at 500Billion.

Meadows sees progress on relief talks, but keeps hard line on Pelosi proposals

I'm not saying Pelosi's 2 trillion, down from 3, is great, but ….. Meadows seems to be negotiating with himself and maybe McConnell.

Does he understand how legislating works?

Pelosi certainly doesn't. She is demanding $3T for socialist spending. We're better off spending none of it.

That while she keeps the unemployed from getting anything to put pressure on Trump because he cares more about them than she does

Trump does not care about anyone but himself.

That $3 T for the most part makes sense. It does several things.

It attempts to replace tax revenues that have been lost by state and local governments.

By giving tax breaks to the rich?

Ah, it appears McConnell is simply aiming at passing anything (even a phonebook) with 50 votes plus Ponce to give some cover to is 6-7 endangered Senators to be able to say "we passed extra UI benefits" … even though you'll not see them until perhaps aft Nov when there's a bipartisan deal.

Funny how you've never remotely demonstrated that you can actually read minds. What was the epiphany that lead you to think you can?

 

[pknopp]

I think the vast majority understand that both sides are simply playing politics with this bill. The base won't care, they never care no matter what their party does.

I can't see this actually helping either party. Hopefully long term it does real harm to both parties. People really have to get tired of this crap sooner or later.

America should not bail out DeBlasio Pelosi, Cuomo and Gag Newsome for giving Illegals Healthcare and Welfare while our homeless vets suffer.

 

[22lcidw]

What's in the House Bill? I've not seen what is in it anywhere. Is this another "we have to vote for it before we know what's in it"?

And soon after that is when she should have left politics.

The desire to keep people safe is driving unemployment.

That was an ok excuse in the beginning

looking back, one stuffy old academic in england was predicting millions of deaths in the US alone if we didnt commit economic suicide

but that was months ago and we have since learned that the virus is nowhere near as deadly

Now its time to reopen the country and TRY to avoid a depression

Now is not the time to completely re-open the country. Mask laws should be in place. The fact is that if we had taken tough action in March or May, this might be over.

No one is talking bailout. What we are talking about is replacing lost tax revenue. Quit lying.

Thats not very likely

Gotcha. We shouldn't combine different things into one bill. The Democrats would never do that.

Isn't there still a trillion from the last stimulus Bill that hasn't been used?


I would like to see the breakdown of the fund disbursements of Pelosi's Bill.
She is kinda famous for trying to use the funds for non essential pork barrel spending.

 

[bdtex]

Basically, the WH is just looking for ANYTHING they can pass in the Senate.

And Senate GOPs are watching the campaign and trying to get a feel for who is gonna win. If they conclude that it will be Biden, there's no incentive for them to deal. There won't be anything in it for them.

There are a number of Senate Republicans who don't want any more covid funding at all. It's a failure of leadership from McConnell and the absolute inability for republicans to govern beyond tax cuts and judicial appointments.
