I'm not sure what the dishonest take is here?

McConnell rejected the the proposed compromise back in October when the white house and the house were both calling for a large relief package.

There was never a deal and apparently there still isn't with McConnell even rejecting the compromise package.

Either way, voters didn't view a coronavirus relief package as important enough to vote out Republicans.

Elections have consequences. :wow:

So back to the old playbook? Blame the people for Democrat incompetence. Just like when there was no convenient progressive to blame for losing 1000s of seats during Obama's years it was the fault of the dumb electorate.

Imagine where we could be if Democrats had half of the energy they have for progressives for attacking Republicans and proper messaging on stimulus bill and coronavirus.

What incompetence. They literally passed and oubbed numerous proposals.

Everyone in this country knows mitch McConnell is the reason why there are no bills being taken up in the senate for the greater good. Not just the stimulus, but also Healthcare, or today's Marijuana decriminalization bill.

He even said as much in the days leading up to his election.

I'm sorry, but you guys are going to have to accept at some point that people are happily voting for Republicans and don't really care about these types of things as much as you do.

A lot of people just want to get back to work. And believe that another mass stimulus bill sets the country up to be locked down again and they don't want that.

Sorry man, Americans really don't care about other people.

And republicans have no incentive to pass legislation that's for the greater good as long as their supporters stand by them.

@No1 has been telling you all for years that I have a cynical view of the American voter.

And I haven't seen anything lately to push me off that position. :yeshrug:
