WASHINGTON, D.C.—Amid political bickering over a potential economic relief package, Democrats warned Americans that the stimulus bill would stimulate the economy.
"This stimulus bill might stimulate the economy -- which would hurt our chances to stop the bad orange man," said Senator Chuck Schumer. "We can't overstate how much damage this would do to our 2020 campaign. The last thing we need is a strong economy going into November."
"This stimulus package is horrifying. It specifically includes funding to stimulate Trump's economy, and we can't have that."
"We cannot pass it to find out what is in it -- then we might accidentally increase Trump's chance of reelection," said Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi. "We must move slowly and cautiously here."
Upon reading part of the bill, Democratic leaders were confused to learn that it would give money back to taxpayers instead of taking it away. "Is that even legal?"
NOT SATIRE!
Sadly, the Babylon bee is more accurate and factual reporting that most, if not all, media outlets.
Could you say that again a little louder?
I do agree with you though !
Not nearly as much satire as you might think. If it were Dan Rather applying his wit and wisdom, this would be “fake but accurate”.
But of course Dan Rather’s bias does not swing that way.
Ironically, before all of this, the market was very nervous that it was riding too high for too long. So this “correction” is removing a lot of the overpressure from that perception that it is a bubble.
But then what happens?
After this hoo-hah has faded, the economy will return with a vengeance, leading right in to the election.
This kind of sabotage should be paid for in lives...
No.
Doze darn dems need d’at plantation full up agin!
