They've been playing this grab ass game for most of the fucking year now.

Trump: "Big checks, the biggest!"
Dems: "ok let's get that going"
Pubs: "waitwaitWAIT"

Just another ploy to fool the nation again into believing politicians are for their interests alone.

She said yes to the $2,000 stimulus and more money for Americans is always a good thing, no?

Obviously Trump doesn't have the authority to get that past Congressional Republicans

I imagine this is it. They've turned their backs on him.

This is all part of the plan. At $2K nobody is going to reasonably complain about the bill passing, and all 500 pages of its bullshit. All that fuss over making "illegal streaming" a federal crime? Gone.

Yay Pelosi playing political theater well like she has her entire career. I love how she's always able to make herself look better than her peers in these situations, the American people may get a shitty bill passed but at least Pelosi won some cool points.

Yea I just started quarantine because a co-worker who I shared a truck with tested positive. Had a big move today with a guaranteed good tip. Now I've lost out on that.

Cut the pork out of the bill, and we'd all get about $20000.

He started showing symptoms on Sunday, I last worked with him Saturday. I think we might end up losing half our staff to this. He rides to work with another coworker, they never wear masks in the car. They also drink and smoke together outside of work. That guy was on a 6 man job yesterday. Everyone who worked with him for the whole week should be tested and quarantined.

When I return to work, I'll be demanding that I only work with the same swamper every day. Swapping guys around makes it so much easier to spread if one guy gets it. The guy who likely gave it to me is someone I've only worked with 3 times in 2 months. If I was with my normal swamper, this wouldn't have happened.
