Stimulus deal. McConnell said he would look at 2 trillion deal and give it a vote.

McConnell Says White House-Backed Stimulus Bill Would Get Senate Floor Vote



At a press conference on Tuesday, McConnell told reporters that the Senate would bring a bill passed by the House, and supported by President Trump, to the floor “at some point,” though he did not specify how soon after passage that might be.

McConnell stopped short of saying he would personally back the bill, let alone whip enough GOP senators to avoid a filibuster, stating “we would have to see what it was first… if a deal is announced, it would have to be written and people would have to take a look at it.”
Despite advocating a $500 billion “skinny” stimulus bill – not including stimulus checks – that is slated to be voted on by the Senate Wednesday, McConnell did not repeat his rejection of the $1.8 trillion to $2.2 trillion price tag called for by Democrats and Trump.

I think we need to quit giving in to the extortion of The Democrat Party. I say keep your money if any of this money goes to the Corrupt DemNazi party.

We need more automatic stabilization of our economy to better promote the general welfare.

That’s a nice thing to have a relationship with the president.

But get something out of it as a result!

Does this mean that McConnell is now prepared to sacrifice the ACB nomination? He said he doesn't have time to do both.

Given the level of resistance by the American public to this nomination, and its potential to cost seats in the Senate, McConnell may be willing to hold back on pushing the nomination through before election, to ensure Republicans retain the Senate in a Democratic Presidency.

There is no level of resistance. The radical marxist libs oppose her. And no, we don't need more stimulus to inflate the pockets of Google, twitter, Facebook, and all of these billionaire corporations. Out liberal mayors and governor's locked down the mom and pop shops and ran them out of business while they let the big corporations stay open AND then sent these same corporations stimulus money while the small businesses tried to get a small pittance but funds were gone for most of them.

Those funds were federal funds. Funds signed off on by Trump.

Nothing should have never been shut or locked down by liberal governors and mayors. Nothing. The stimulus was the usual solution to stop a problem created by the govt.

Stimulus II is a political football, IMHO.

Which it shouldn’t be.

Sound, responsible economic policy favors government stimulus during a recession:

‘Concerns that the United States does not have the “fiscal space” — due to high levels of deficits and debt — to enact robust fiscal stimulus to minimize the human and economic costs of a recession are misguided. The United States has a long-term fiscal challenge, not an immediate debt crisis. Deficit and debt concerns should go on the back burner in a recession.’

Fiscal Stimulus Needed to Fight Recessions | Center on Budget and Policy Priorities

The last recession left key lessons for policymakers, who should now use a wide array of available policy tools to keep this and future downturns as short and shallow as possible.

Queen Nancy will shoot it down. Again.

She needs voters desperate and afraid, but it ain't working. It has backfired so badly that turbo democrat news commentators are calling her out in an effort to save the party.

Earlier this week Mitch said giving money to workers would mean they would refuse to return to work. Republicans don’t want a stimulus. And we don’t have enough time to confirm ACB, and pass a stimulus.

Then he said R’s need to hold onto the Senate to block Biden’s agenda.

Today he Brought a stimulus bill to the floor. Either R’s Senators are refusing to confirm ACB or Mitch is pandering for votes.

They will still have time to confirm ACB after the election before the current term ends but there’s no going back if D’s hold the Senate come Jan 21st.
