Fox News: The reason stimulus check is only $600 is "demands from Congressional Republicans"

[pyetro]

This is not good for Republicans when it comes to who's responsible for giving Americans a tiny $600 check (so small that even Trump said it's not enough). Fox News, which is conservatives' leading news source, says this:

Democrats have long wanted the higher stimulus payments but settled for $600 due to demands from congressional Republicans in their negotiations. House Democrats intend to put a standalone bill on the floor Monday to boost the stimulus checks to $2,000, but it would still need support from the GOP-led Senate, which has been leery of higher spending.

The pure stupidity among Trumpsters is their belief that democrats only wanted $600 checks. Anyone with basic knowledge of the subject knows that republicans didn’t want direct checks of any amount. If republicans had full control, that is what Americans would have gotten.

They were happy with nothing. The only reason they sending out checks now is because of bernie and that republican guy.
They are going to vote on bigger checks soon, apparently.

If republicans had full control they would of gave $10,000 to each american and zero to venezuela and cuba

 

[MarcATL]

It's a play to return to Trump's good graces.

He's been pissed at them since election night.

I believe their efforts are futile.

But I sure enjoy watching them try.

Didn't you hear? Rand Paul was going to personally sign the checks. I'm not sure what Venezuela or Cuba has to do with it.

There are very few conservatives in the Republican Party. Very few.

The only genuine conservatives operating from within the party are our own plants...



Sen. Rand Paul Discusses Stimulus Talks and the Election - Dec. 17, 2020




On December 15, 2020, Representatives Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) and Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) introduced H.R. 8970, the Protect Our Civil Liberties Act, to repeal the USA Patriot Act and to remove the dangerous provisions from the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA). Joining The New American to discuss the bipartisan legislation aimed at restoring constitutional protections of Americans’ civil liberties is Rep. Massie. Congressman Massie also addresses the unconstitutional provisions within the bloated and recently passed $900 billion coronavirus stimulus bill.

^^^^ Proof left wingers are ignorant to the facts. Who is keeping "local traffic" shut down.

Trump had the economy growing at record paces and the left shut it down. Fact.

You can't lie you're way around what is happening.

 

[colfax_m]

Trump had the economy growing at record paces and the left shut it down.

Economic growth was below 3% every single year.

The weird thing to me is that Trump told Republicans to give him a bill and he'd sign it. So they spend 9 months arguing about it and he sits on because he wanted 2 grand. As if he couldn't have told them that 9 fucking months ago?

Ah well, more of the same from The Mango Menace in his never-ending thirst remain the center of attention and inflict his usual cruelty on the American people during a pandemic while languishing at a dive like Mar-a-Lago.

 

[DukeU]

Economic growth was below 3% every single year.

You can nit pick if you wish, but unemployment was at record lows across the board.

Trump created jobs and the left shut it down and are now offering 600 dollars and unemployment, with no end in sight. *biden to the rescue.....

 

[colfax_m]

Not pick? You said economic growth, not me. That’s not a nit pick to bring up that economic growth was what Republicans used to term as pathetic growth, at least when a democratic president was in office. Sorry if you moved the subject from economic growth to employment, which is pretty typical.

Unemployment started at a low level and he marginally lowered it further.

But if you bring up economic growth again, don’t be surprised when someone brings up mediocre economic growth.

They think 1200 is too much but they would have given 10,000 if they were in full control? Are you stupid or pretending?

I thought we were told not to believe anything FOX News says. Now we are? Sounds like confirmation bias to me.
