How long is Pelosi going to wait

Republicans have lost any claim to the moral high ground on that issue.
But far more than the big spending democrats that use taxpayer money to buy votes.
 
How long is McConnell going to wait? The House passed a Bill for Covid stimulus months ago.

if you think the Senate bill is “clean”, please explain what hundreds of millions of dollars for stealth fighters has to do with Covid.

Stealth fighters so the virus won't see the bomb coming it's way. Most logical solutions.
 

Those are both long term solutions. In the short term, essential services grind to a halt during a pandemic.
 
ZZZZ .... zzz

Oct 21, 2020 — Senate Republicans tried to pass an aid bill as Pelosi and Mnuchin negotiate a coronavirus stimulus bill that would cost at least $1.9 trillion.
 
Wait? She passed a comprehensive stimulus back in May. The GOP has been obstructing since, since they want crumbs for individuals and small businesses, and the bulk for big businesses that don't need it.

You don't seem to be paying much attention.

Oh hell, Pelosi has packed every targeted COVID relief bill, which was supposed to be targeted to those impacted by COVID, into a Democrat's favorites slush fund.
 
The Pork Queen packs every bill with radical left wing crap.
 
That nasty McConnell ....does he hate America?
 
Why is McConnell blocking this bill?
 

Mitch McConnell.
 
Go ask Mitch because he only wants legal protections for corporations and no stimulus for the citizens or unemployment for people laid off because of Covid19.

 
Why is McConnell blocking this bill?
So no response to the Democrat Senators filibustering a COVID relief bill? (As cited)
No response to the long time Pelosi wouldn't make a COVID deal 'because it was wrong President'?
Seriously?

(I posed my question first, why do you refuse to answer?)
 
Pelosi will wait until all of her fancy ice cream is gone.
 
The nasty evil old witch probably hopes to wait till the senile old fool Biden is in office before she will present a workable deal.

Hmm-----------maybe I should have used a "b".
 

I'm not seeing the harm in giving the people who need it most a $600 check to help them out. Why do the Democrats think it is such a bad thing?

McConnell is against that

I thought good hard working people NEVER needed big nanny gubmint and could always pick themselves up by the bootstraps. Are you saying there ARE times when it’s OK for gubmint to steal from us hardworking Americans and redistribute it?
 
That is of course just plain BS. Look at the debt big spending democrats have run up in big cities.

Thise cities generate 85% of the entire GDP of the country. If there is any debt it may be because they are paying all those subsidies to Trump country.
