Just wait till the red headed step children really get fired up...
Biden won’t be signing any stimulus until spring time..
This is squarely at the feet of McConnell. They were about to pass the $2000 amount (bipartisan) when McConnell suddenly announced that he wouldn’t do it and he had his own plan. This was just a couple of days before the election.
Needless to say, the Dems took to the air in Georgia and flooded the state with messages that said “Vote Dem, get $2000.”
So of course that’s what people did. The GOP candidates were actually a little ahead before that.
This is not to debate the merits of the $2000 payment, but the time had passed for that, it was a done deal, and McConnell (intentionally, I think) sabotaged it and the GOP was blamed. He had to have known what the result would be.
600 + 1400 is 2000
not only are they mooches they’re dumb af.
Embrace the suck you voted (cheated) for Georgia. I will laugh when the democratic majority precincts deteriorate further under the new Biden economy.
This is the only time the money will be rushed...The dems need to keep the angry dems in congress happy...Hey look,they got 1,400.REAL FAST......
Well, joke is on them. I’ve read a couple of sources last night saying the relief may not even be considered until March.
March = Never
I checked out some UK and Australian radio programs online today and they love affair with Biden was on full display. going back into the Paris climate accord was #1 talking point.
on an Australian money program, the excitement was over Yellen being back, and how she was for maximum stimulus, beginning with the $1.9 trillion bill, which they said was only the start. increased debt was no problem, and the stimulus money would get injected into the world economies and keep their economies going as well, they said.
forget MAGA - Biden was planning to Build Back Better (Great Re-Set). globalism and multilateralism rules.
how sad.
Damn straight.
Do I get a new Obamaphone with it?
“Georgia is dead to me.”
BTW fat Stacy Abrams who continues to claim the Governor’s race was stolen from her two years ago is still being considered for a Bidet cabinet position. Only Republicans are expected to concede gracefully.
Go home and get your shine box!
Exactly. McConnell is either a complete idiot and got played by the dems or he was in bed with them.
This kind of naked “$$ for votes” should be illegal.
Can’t fix stupid..... they do not understand 600 + 1400 = 2000. Of course no politician explained it so let them think it was an additional $2,000, good for our side.
He spent months negotiating a package that included the $600 payment, then immediately came out publicly -- within 24 hours, as I remember it -- and complained that it wasn't enough.
What kind of "Art of the Deal" nonsense what that? You begin demanding terms for a new deal AFTER you've given up all the leverage you had while negotiating the old one?
Both men narrowly won hard-fought races against Republican incumbents in the Peach State, winning control of the Senate for the Democrats in the process.
And purported with the optics by this breathless reporting blurb to have been an overall win win.
Sure sounds like the short memory massage.
And they still show up and vote for them. Some will even become poll workers and stuff the machines for them too.
The establishment swamp alrrady determined what thw voters are, now they’re.just negotiating the price.
