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.
 
They dont need to collapse at all. They can do one of two things. Raise taxes on the fool voters that elected the big spending democrats. Or file bankruptcy, renegotiate the obscenely high pay to city b'crats and teachers, and reduce their obscenely high retirement and medical.

Those are both long term solutions. In the short term, essential services grind to a halt during a pandemic.
 
Hundreds of thousands that have been put out of work because of the china virus are standing in food lines. A clean stimulus pay out would be great for them.

Yet the evil nasty old partisan witch Pelosi refuses to forward a clean stimulus package because Trump is president. It she going to continue to crap on all those poor people clear up till the Big Guy Biden is in office?

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.

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.

Last week, Senate Republicans unveiled the HEALS Act, their proposal to address the continued devastation that COVID-19 is wreaking on the country. The Act, a collection of discrete bills authored by various Senators, would have far-reaching consequences. One of the bills, Texas Senator John Cornyn’s SAFE TO WORK Act, would restrict lawsuits based on coronavirus exposure against employers, businesses, and many other potential defendants. Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has indicated that the liability restrictions are a critical Republican requirement for further COVID-19 relief measures.
 
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?

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".
 
Schumer, Pelosi Shoot Down Trump Covid Relief Bill That ...

Senate Democratic leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi have rejected the White House’s $916 billion COVID-19 stimulus package plan, which included $600 direct payments to millions of Americans, citing an “unacceptable” reduction in unemployment insurance funds.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) had reportedly informed the Trump administration on Tuesday that they support the $600 checks.

“While it is progress that [GOP] Leader [Mitch] McConnell has signed off on a $916 billion offer that is based off of the bipartisan framework, the president’s proposal must not be allowed to obstruct the bipartisan congressional talks that are underway,” the Democratic leaders said in a joint statement.

“Members of the House and Senate have been engaged in good-faith negotiations and continue to make progress. The bipartisan talks are the best hope for a bipartisan solution,” the leaders added. “The President’s proposal starts by cutting the unemployment insurance proposal being discussed by bipartisan members of the House and Senate from $180 billion to $40 billion. That is unacceptable.”

McCarthy said he and McConnell backed the stimulus checks included in the White House’s $916 billion compromise measure, Axios reported on Wednesday. The liberal political website said the inclusion of the checks was discussed Tuesday among McCarthy, McConnell, Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, and White House chief of staff Mark Meadows.

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?

The fact is, after 4 years in the Navy, and 47 years with the same company that I WORKED HARD for, my situation is, I really dont need stimulus money. But unfortunately some working people thrown out of work due to dictatorial mayors do.

Note------------- Notice those words WORKED HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!

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.
