McConnell won his re-election race by almost 20 points.

It's all about the Pork they bring home. We get the government we deserve in the end.

Complete horse poop. Checks would have made -0- difference. The Jan 5 election was over Nov. 4, the Nov. 3 election was over in September. The fix was in plain sight, covid was the bio-weapon of choice, a means to an end...results: those who could have stopped it did little to nothing, others got the outcome they wanted.

Trump(outsider)threat. Threat gone.

Back to business as usual.

"The Capitalists will sell us the rope with which we will hang them"

True, but it could also be said that...

"American's will buy the (cheaper) rope (from China) and just hang themselves".

While it's true traitors(politicians on both sides)and corp. greed leeches will continue to enrich themselves by selling out their western countries to their globalist masters, turning a blind-eye to the gallows being built for the rest of us...

...we also must accept our own role in our own destruction.

WE are creating China's power, capitalists are being capitalists(patriotism is for suckers /s), lemmings are being lemmings, serfs are being serfs.

Humanity never learns.

Empires get full of themselves, lethargy/gluttony opens the door for their destroyers, empires fall.

“From each according to hiss ability to each according to his need.” Wouldn’t you agree comrade?

Why stop at $2,000? I am sure the Federal Reserve helicopters can drop a lot more than that.

So that $2,000 is only going to those in need?

Trump shouldn’t have started pushing for $2000 without coordinating with McConnell. His failure to coordinate was really incompetent. A Dem President would never have done that. I blame Trump at least as much as McConnell.

"Why would I want to dare defend McCain? You defend him."

You prove my point, you cannot defend "conservative" McCain and the "conservative" movement which is composed of self-serving Uniparty clowns. McConnell and Romney are also stars of the "conservative" movement and are beneath contempt. To hell with the GOPe, the Bush Crime Family, and all those that support them.

You sound like a staffer at the Koch Brother libertarian group, or a speechwriter for McConnell, Liz Cheney or Mitt Romney or John McCain. But don’t worry, with Trump gone, the GOP will go back to your way of thinking, and will lose presidential elections the way it did before

This headline is just a cover for the fraud and cheating scam.   The only thing that hurt the GOP in Georgia was the Dominion Machines pealing votes from the Republicans and giving them to the Democrats.

You can’t coordinate with McConnell who is controlled by China. His wife has direct connections to the communist regime in China.

What in the world are you talking about? You mean China ordered him not to agree to $2000?

May be or may be not. You have no way to know and neither do I. All I know for sure is McConnell is married to a Chinese woman with inside connection to the communist regime in China.

Does your point need proving? As I said Trump is neither Republican or conservative.

So answer the question. If the criteria for handing out money is “need” and you think the government should help those in need, then tell me how much should be handed out and who should get it?

Oh please. Georgia’s runoffs were always going to be stolen by the Democrats. ALWAYS.
There was NO chance those elections weren’t going to be stolen.
McConnell blew it but not by opposing bigger checks.
