Suddenly, Pelosi wants a coronavirus stimulus deal
American Thinker ^ | Sept 16, 2020 | Richard Baehr

Posted on 09/16/2020 4:42:37 PM PDT by upchuck

The margin favoring Democrats in the generic ballot for the House is slipping, from about 8 points to about 6 in the last few weeks (one could say the Dem lead has had a bad haircut).

Given GOP redistricting advantages in several states — especially Ohio and North Carolina, and to a lesser extent in a few other states — plus the fact that Dems win big majorities in minority-majority districts, Dems may need at least a 6-point advantage to hold control of the House. Dems have invested heavily in districts they picked up in 2018, but overall, the House has had lesser emphasis than the presidential race or the battles for Senate control. Pelosi is likely getting nervous, since her own importance and power depend on holding the majority.

A bipartisan group in the House (the "problem solvers") is working on a compromise bill to provide more stimulus, which the Fed and most economists seem to think will be required until the COVID virus reaches lower levels, where a higher percentage of the economy is functioning again.

The Dem strategy was to prevent passage of what they call a skinny bill in the Senate, which would have then led to a conference committee of members of both houses to produce a new bill (the House earlier passed their $3-trillion-plus "Heroes" bill). But if House control is at risk, then blaming Trump for no second big bill as the economy slips again may be failing as a strategy.

Click on the link and look at the pic of Pelousy. She hasn’t looked that good in 30 years.

At this point int the election cycle, it’d be likely good to have nothing passed if the blame could be put on Pelosi.

Never trust a woman who looks like she has two sets of eyebrows.

NO FRIGGIN’ DEAL until after the election when it can be done entirely on our terms. Not a penny for bailouts of the DemocRAT states and cities.

Are you sure she doesn’t want to keep the House open to try to make herself look reasonable while she continues to hold out for all of her demands while continuing to refuse to compromise?

“Why couldn’t she have done this a mnth ago?”

simply because then she would have seemed to actually care about american citizens!

now she keeps it obvious it’s all political and/or what is in her best interest!

at least she stays true to her soul, what commitment she has/sarc

Just spoke to a neighbor today that was pro Obama.

She is voting Trump and even bought a 6ft Trump flag she will display.

I didn’t see that coming.
