About that COVID-19 "relief package......."

I actually agree with almost every single word President Trump has to say. I say "almost" only because he indicates his administration will also be the "next one."

 

This speech even triggered a rare moment of unity with House Speaker Marie Antoinette Nancy Pelosi...... 

Republicans repeatedly refused to say what amount the President wanted for direct checks. At last, the President has agreed to $2,000 — Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent. Let’s do it! https://t.co/Th4sztrpLV

......and.....Ilhan Omar????

 

Mitch don’t be the only reason people don’t get $2000, let’s do this. https://t.co/yuvsYUQX6m

Look, I get it. This bill will just add to what is already an out-of-control annual deficit and overall National Debt. However, if government's handling of the pandemic results in putting livelihoods in peril, then this is the second best option (the best of course would be no lockdowns at all).  

Not sure where we go from here but precious time is a wastin'.
