[St. Louis Conservative]

Would Trump favor this same exact bill with all the extraneous spending if it also included $2000 checks?

[RandFan]

I don’t think so. He wants a clean bill (I think)

[a fool in paradise]

No.

Nanzi Pelogsi is trying to ram it through that way. Pass the current bill AND a second bill for more money for citizens.

[Ann Archy]

NO! WAY TOO MUCH FOREIGN TRASH MONEY!

Would Trump favor this same exact bill with all the extraneous spending if it also included $2000 checks?

Probably. He has no choice. This is how massively powerful our Founders made the House of Representatives, and thus its Speaker.

“Would Trump favor this same exact bill with all the extraneous spending if it also included $2000 checks?”

Probably, a lot of the extraneous spending has to be cut from whatever the balance that is left after the $2000 checks are cut.

[Socon-Econ]

Both sides are holding relief on which they agree hostage to provisions on which they disagree. Hard to tell who is going to come out ahead politically. Probably the side that can best explain its case.
