He is so hideous. Mitch the Bitch and Trump sold their souls to the devil and they have the faces they deserve.

Political ploy. He can say he had to bypass the dems to get the money the unemployed need.

And, listen to how on (partisan) message Rick Scott is.
Say what you will about the GOP, they have mastered the art of getting EVERYBODY not just on the same page, but on the same fucking LINE!

If he does, it’ll be at a reduced rate of $200/week.

It's now just an accepted fact that the President is an oafish clown who throws out bullshit lies for no particular reason with absolutely no intention of following through on any of them.
by Anonymous | reply 13 | August 5, 2020 1:06 AM |
in fact, it makes less and less sense for anyone to meet with Trump, report on Trump, interview Trump, repeat anything Trump says. That's really where we are. The president is a big giant void of lies and bullshit and nothing he says or does has any relation to reality or the future.

It sounds to me like the GOP are talking out both sides of their neck: The vulnerable ones like McSally and Miss Lindsey will go home and claim that they did the heavy lifting, while everybody else can point to this floating around in the ether as proof of how much the White House cares...
[quote] Democrat John Hickenlooper, has been hammering Gardner over the GOP’s decision to “pause” the coronavirus negotiations for most of the summer. On Tuesday, his campaign held a virtual press conference to press for more relief. “We’ve seen Sen. Gardner stay silent while Mitch McConnell and President Trump refuse to help millions of Americans,” Hickenlooper said.
[quote] In South Carolina, Graham’s opponent has called out what he has characterized as the Republican’s flippant attitude toward real-world concerns over lost wages and unemployment. Jaime Harrison has said Graham is “leading the charge” to cut additional unemployment relief, referring to Graham’s April comment that Congress would extend the current benefits past July “over our dead bodies.”
[quote] Graham is now offering a jobless benefit proposal that is more generous than other GOP proposals.
[quote] Cornyn helped start a bandwagon of senators who are demanding the Senate stay at work in Washington until a coronavirus bill is passed. Voters expect a deal — including renewed unemployment benefits that have helped millions of people avert a descent into poverty — and returning home to campaign without one in hand could be a political disaster. With progress coming slowly in the talks, GOP leaders said the Senate will be extending its session into next week and possibly longer.
[quote] Back home, Cornyn is facing the first serious reelection challenge of his 18 years in the Senate as Trump’s sagging approval and Texas’ rapidly changing suburbs has the GOP nervous about their grip on America’s biggest red state. His opponent, Democrat M.J. Hegar, is attacking Cornyn for opposing the $600 per week benefit as too generous in a majority of cases since it pays most people more to not work than to work. He said in June that the benefit would not be reinstated.

All the Democrats should be hitting the Republicans with the Republican sponsored corporate welfare pledge. At taxpayers expense. But no tax refund relief for the middle class. The Democrats have to stop making the stimulus sound like it’s a giveaway. We are in a pandemic and economic freefall. The stimulus belongs to the people.
by Anonymous | reply 16 | August 5, 2020 1:43 AM |
This is exactly what Mitt Romney warned us would occur. Trump will move to the middle and take positions that appeal to those that will vote. Many that are unemployed need the money now. While the Dems fight for the $600 and Moscow Mitch is nowhere to be found, Trump and his team come to the rescue. VOTES VOTES VOTES.
He is also planning for an Executive Order to stop evictions. VOTES VOTES VOTES.
Now you add his targeted misinformation on voter fraud to add doubt to the election, he has a better strategy than what Biden and the Dems are showing.
Biden and his team are letting the election go down the tubes.

If only you idiots realized that no President can order spending! That isn't his job, nor is it within his power to do so!
If Trump wants it so badly, he can instruct Mitch McLoser to ram it through the Senate and reconcile it with the House's months-old Coronavirus Stimulus bill now!

Trump doesn't want anything badly, other than re-election. and honestly, even that would cause him more problems. trump doesn't know what the fuck he wants, other than fame and money and how to get that is very much a dilemma right now.

Good. Sick of these do-nothings negotiating a packaged based on how many millions they can funnel to their friends and special interest groups. Fuck Nancy Pelosi and her 3 trillion dollar hero’s act where most of the money isn’t going to the people, but to prop up mismanaged state budgets and pensions.
It’s the people’s money, and it should go to the people.
He’s saying this to light a fire under Nancy’s ass. Good.

Or he could just actually get involved in the process, which he’s been sitting out. Maybe tell the senate republicans not to slash the benefit. You know, do something?
I mean something other than the King Donnie I routine he pulls out of his ass on a regular basis.

He could issue a tax break, divert funds from other departments (remember the fence) and he could issue a temporary eviction moratorium He is evil and will do anything, whether its legal or not. What happens if he does. The Dems are not going to impeach, the Repugs kiss his butt and he has lined the courts with his allies.

A lump sum payment of 25,000 to every American over 18 earning less than 100k a year and 3,500-5,000 for 16-18 year olds.
Biden could promise the same.
It's time for the billionaires to start paying 90% or forfeit their assets.
by Anonymous | reply 31 | August 5, 2020 1:02 PM |
Repubs believe that tax breaks should go to job creators (corps) and the Dems want the breaks to go to the people who work. Either way, there is no party that speaks for the 80% of all America, because the extreme wings of each party wags their dog and nothing gets done for the majority. Time for a 3rd party with some clout.

The Republican party should disband. It hasn't had a useful idea in 50 years. It is only there to serve the rich, who by definition don't need this service, and to block anything that helps anyone else. They are the reason nothing is getting done now. They and they alone are the reason. They are driven entirely by wingnut philosophy, which always boils down to give more money to rich people and let everyone else go fuck themselves.

We Gen Y/Z know there's no retirement coming, and either its corporatism dystopia (why do you think we're more generally left?), a form of socialist revolution ('Bernie was the compromise'), or corporate-friendly basic income for all, including the old (but add in some creepy friendliness to euthanize the old). This is why we don't like Biden. He will kick the can down further without some sort of substantial change.

Two things always start happening when it becomes obvious that once again Republicans have fucked everything up in service of a fucked up ideology: There is much mooing about how we need a Third Party because both sides are dominated by their extremes; and we start hearing a rising crescendo of mooing about the Deficit.

The same Rick Scott who completely and deliberately underfunded and screwed up Florida's unemployment system to punish Florida's blood sucking unemployed leeches is now concerned about the unemployed? My God, these mother fuckers have absolutely no shame.
