    This really shouldn’t be surprising to anyone.

    Seriously the Democrats basically have Trump doing exactly the type of things they are running on and then block it...? Am i mis-interpreting this?

    No, you’re not misinterpreting. These are people who are wealthy enough to weather the storm with only minor irritation. They don’t care, the letter in front of their name means dick. The current current condition of the state of California should be good indication of where Nancy Pelosi’s loyalties lie.

    So if i'm reading that article right, the quote from Pelosi isn't that she doesn't want to give americans money now but she wants to target those specifically hurt by this the most and wanted not just straight up money but other ways to help as well. There is very little actual info on that article so i'll personally need to go find more information to really have a solid opinion on what is going on. My first thought though is that what Pelosi wants will take a lot more time and Americans don't have that kind of time unless Trump wants to suspend all payments on Rent/Mortage/Utiliites/ect.

    She just wants to be different from whatever Trump does.

    I'm not even really in favor of bailouts, and just send a check type stuff... However, I find it so incredibly odd that her party is literally running on that type of stuff and she's like no. It seems like it would be such a crushing victory for socialism to say, see even the "far-right" Trump is having to do socialistic things to keep us afloat. I don't really get that part of it... I didn't have time to read up on her full proposal so maybe I am just missing things I don't know.

    It's between Kramer and Tobias Funke for best TV characters IMO.
