Schumer and Pelosi Tell GOP to 'Stop Political Posturing,' After Dems Blocked Bipartisan Paycheck Protection Funding

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Speaker Pelosi released a joint statement Monday morning demanding that Republicans stop “political posturing” on COVID-19 small business relief legislation, after the pair of Democratic leaders successfully blocked additional funding for the bipartisan Paycheck Protection Program (PPP) last week:

The delay of additional funding, as the original funding runs out as small businesses begin to see relief, is at the hands of Sen. Schumer and Speaker Pelosi, who torpedoed the bill when their list of unrelated demands were not met. Republicans, led by Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY), proposed a clean bill to add $250 billion more funding to PPP last Thursday, but Democrats blocked it.

As noted previously, they will end up asking for way more than they want to get what the need and the republicrats will gleefully jump on board claiming "See what we prevented from being added!" More lucy/charlie brown football tricks. Republicrats compromising (capitulating) in 3,....2,..... They are the masters of deception because that's what evil does.

“Republicrats compromising (capitulating) in 3,....2,..... “

I do have some sympathy for them. The problem is, the Democrats can claim almost anything, and the media will report it as fact. Those that pay attention may know that the news is fake, but the majority of voters still believe what the msm reports.

Time for Trump to play hardball. Use his daily pressers to show the country just how the Democrats are playing politics with the economy.

Since every network takes the first have of the conference live, have Trump prepare charts with all the pork the Democrats want to place in the bill and in front of the cameras ask Nancy and Chuck what the hell all the additional crap has to do with saving small business. (Thing $25mil for Kennedy Center). Put the Dems on defense for once.

If Trump does it during the presser, it won’t be filtered by the MSM, it could create the backlash against the Dems that would help in November.

Yep. However, you have to take a number and get in line...they’re well-hated across many lines. Both of these two communist scumbags should have been locked up already. One for threatening SCOTUS judges and the other should be locked up in a padded cell to protect itself and the country. Instead, we got these slimy scumbags, in the middle of a crisis (which they probably colluded with CCP on), pulling stunts like they have. These two communist SOBs need to be GONE....like yesterday.

“...but the majority of voters still believe what the msm reports...” Sad commentary on folks that never learned or were never taught to think for themselves. Some are unteachable. The dems need to be treated like the petulant brats they are.

1. Faces ALERT! Look closely at their faces. You can see the EVIL. If that escapes you, go to...

2. Words

3. Deeds

If they all escape you... then you are probably enslaved, raped or dead.

Exactly. Two steps forward, one step back.

You’re a “guy” after my own heart.

I have said that if anyone ever asks about my legacy statement it will be:

STAY ON OFFENSE.

It works with a thoughtful plan.
