Trump doesn't care.
Republicans aren't looking to give Biden a leg up heading into 2021.
At the end of the day, regardless of party every major player has a macro economist(s) somewhere in their ear. They will all be singing the same tune - we need stimulus. The extant of the stimulus & the target is negotiable but I legitimately don’t see how something isn’t passed.
With that said it blew my mind how something wasn’t already passed, but oh well
If its retroactive would it count towards 2020 taxes even if its paid out in 2021? 
Hope not

Again, I said they'll probably just pass a check cut to families and likely some business relief.At the end of the day, regardless of party every major player has a macro economist(s) somewhere in their ear.

wild to think that mitch is at home no doubt to eat an expensive (bland ass) meal, while food lines is out the ass all the while democrats are managing to take the overall blame for no stimulus in the media

Only MAGA and deranged idiots will be screaming "See! Bidens presidency is a failure! Look at the economy!" On January 21st.
Anybody with a brain already knows wassup. Even some of my republican co-workers agree that this shyt is on their party.
Feel like this has to be less than 30% of the population. I'm sure a large percentage of those affected still blame the democrats

I agree. I feel like after this senate race on the 5th, that’ll be the last card either party can play.At the end of the day, regardless of party every major player has a macro economist(s) somewhere in their ear.

Even if one side has to bite the bullet, something will get passed once they see who can control the senate
Facts. GA has a lot of weight on our shoulders but there’s still some ppl who won’t vote. I got a friend who makes $16-$17/hr talking about he doesn’t know why his vote matters, he already got his money

Marc Cuban is an idiot
And he got sonned.
He's being intentionally disingenuous which is far more dangerous IMO. He basically allows McConnell off the hook for not getting a bill on the senate floor (which is actual congressional procedure), and just let the senate go home, and then deflect and pull a both sides strawman.

More bad faith arguments. What is this magical bill that will miraculous posses turtle to introduce something into the Senate and have it pass? It's obvious Senate republicans don't give a shyt and that should be the narrative going forward.
The house has crated and passed their own bill. There's nothing stopping turtle and the senate republicans from introducing a bill of their own in the senate per congressional procedure.
