McConnell bitching about procedural obstruction never gets old.

You go inside the tent see the slideshow girls and there is just Donald Trump himself saying the same thing over and over again.

How is he dressed? What do you think the MSM has been doing? Talk about saying the same thing over and over. Orange man bad. Almost 4 years of it.

Mitch McConnell Unloads on Democrats for Playing Politics on Coronavirus Relief Bill

Rest assured, it has little to do with the bill’s particulars and most everything to do with how their next elections will play out. The goal is to make this a disaster for Trump, and if the Democrats can make it seem like Trump was slow to roll out the help, then with the media’s help, that’s exactly what they’ll do.

He does nice, fresh stupid stuff constantly.

The Governor of Boston

"The taverns are fair full of gadabouts making merry this eve. Though I may press my face against the window like an urchin at a confectioner’s, I am tempted not by the sweetmeats within. A dram in exchange for the pox is an ill bargain indeed."

And the way I've heard it.

Democrats torpedoed a bipartisan emergency bill that:

-Provides payroll & rent for small business
-Credit to businesses across America to keep them afloat
- Cash in American’s pockets
-⬆️ unemployment benefits

They have no good reasons. Just partisanship. Call your reps NOW.

But there could be consequences to ending the measures too quickly. The recent rise of cases in Hong Kong, after there had been an easing of the spread of the virus, is something of an object lesson about how ending strict measures too soon can have dangerous consequences.

Undisciplined and impatient, it would be just like Trump to try something this reckless.

If you are paying attention, you'll know that there is a messaging push from Trump, Fox and the big money Wall Street people to prevent damage to "the economy" by quickly loosening restrictions on business's operating, people working and social distancing which epidemiologists insist must be kept in place for much longer. As Eric Levitz puts it:
