It is widely known that the relief packages here on out will be pure pork,theft and every socialist “deal” that can be shoved into it.

“Widely known” by whom? If a bill is loaded with pork, the president doesn’t have to sign it into law. And if a president signs any bill into law, the current administration then gets to decide who actually qualifies for funding and who doesn’t.

How about confirming some judges?

Another reason not to do it. No more relief bills.

Yeah, me too.

By the time they finish helping us we will be finished.

Sometimes that helps, sometimes it doesn’t. Just today both Gorsuch and Kavanaugh voted with Sotormayor in an Obamacare ruling. The decision was 8-1 in favor of Obamacare.

That’s not the issue.

The media and democrats will use it to prove Republicans dont care. And being spineless cowards, they will cave in. Remember the Kennedy Center million$?

And don’t think that McConnell is going to stand firm and resist all this crap.
There will be a fourth bailout and it will include some or much of the democrat agenda.

I love the President but I believe he will sign it even though the end result would be his destruction (because of mail in voting)...even though we can go to Walmart and Lowes and banks, etc, and touch key pads throughout this entire pandemic only to be told we cannot stand 6 feet away from each other to vote!

How do you create socialists? By destroying the economy and making the newly created peasant class believe that only an authoritarian economy can give them their “rights” and their “just desserts”.
