President Trump complained for nearly a week about a "disgraceful" $2.3 trillion COVID-19 relief and 2021 spending package Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin helped negotiate, "only to and get nothing in return?" . "Trump got taken to the cleaners."
After this "bizarre, embarrassing episode," all Trump proved is that "he had no discernible strategy and no hand to play," . "He folded, and got nothing besides a few days of attention and chaos. ... Zip. Zero. Zilch." Trump issued a statement , they note, but "he'll never get the spending rescissions he's asking for — like, zero chance" — and his support for a vote on $2,000 stimulus checks will only "split the Republican Party on the way out the door."
"This is probably the most fitting coda to Trump's presidency, and a neat encapsulation of his relationship with Congress," . "He never cared to understand the place and was disengaged from its work. They'll be laughing — er, scratching their heads — at your genius about this one for a while, Mr. President."
Palmer also noted the terrible optics of Trump sitting on relief checks, unemployment benefits, and rental aid from his golf resort in Palm Beach, while Vice President Mike Pence is , Colorado, and Mnuchin near Cabo.

Reportedly McConnell wants to tie it in one bill with a repeal of section 230 from the 1996 internet regulation act. I'd be fore this, everyone should be for this, because big tech shouldn't have legal immunity. They act like editors not common carriers so they should lose section 230 protections and let everyone they wrong sue them in court.

- We're in the soup now.
It's not about legal immunity, it's about making El Trumpty feel sad, get over it bootlickers, we are not a Theocracy.

The issue about liability has been the GOP not wanting employers held accountable for employees contracting Covid19 due to their negligence.
Carry on thought.
Tell us in full detail about McConnel's opposition to corporations not being held accountable for their actions.

Actually, section 230 is explicitly about immunity from lawsuits on the grounds that they are not editors but simple common carriers like the phone company. Except it is very clear companies like Facebook, youtube, and Twitter all edit material as well so they shouldn't have immunity from lawsuits.

You are confusing an old proposal which never got passed with the section 230 issue. I am all for regular people being able to sue corporations
You should be too.

Oh, I am. One of the many reasons I had little regard for Obama, you know,
being the partisan hack I am and all.

Something is better than nothing at all! Maybe he wanted to go ahead and pass something while the house and senate argue over the $2k deal. He knows the American people need money now and there's no sense in them waiting any longer. Is $600 much? Fuck no. It wouldn't catch anyone up on the bills that they owe but guess what? $600 is better than $0 all day long!

If he he just wanted to get people the money he could have signed it last weds instead of 8pm the following Sunday. I believe the reason he reversed course is McConnell made it clear the Senate was just going to over ride his veto and thus humiliate him in public. Trump would have deserved it too as his team negotiated the deal and pushed stimulus payments down to just $600.
It was only after the legislation had passed that Trump stupidly started whining about what his own people had agreed to.

. Of course I do.
What's not unsurprising is that you are too lazy to look it up.
Remember - I already know what I think.
Know what I know.
It's you needs to

Even CNN is admiting Dems don't want to have to vote for or against an enlarged stimulus check if they also have to vote to remove immunity from lawsuits for big tech. Dems love to suck big tech's cock as they are a big three donor lobby (after banks and drug companies). They know the public wants the checks and hates big tech monopolies but the Dems don't want to offend one of their largest donors.
Hehe he. Good move by Mitch. Make the Dems show their true colors on the record for everyone to see. I can almost hear the 2022 campaign attack ads now.
