No deal before the election because it would help Trump.
BUT - a deal before January, because that’s the only shot she has of getting things into the deal that SHE wants. If she really things Biden is going to win, then she’d wait until after the inauguration, as she’d be able to get even more.
I think this really her tacit admission that Trump is going to win, and that Democrat control of the house, and her own leadership position, are in jeopardy.
If Trump loses I doubt he gives them anything they want in remaining months he is President.
That’s right. She doesn’t want any checks with trumps name on any relief checks.
