    Several GOP Senators were self-isolating having or been exposed to the virus and the Democrats exploited this. And you do understand industries are being hobbled the cruise lines have American employees, bring business to American ports even if foreign flagged and Airlines run on modest profits at best and now its not the best is it? We need money, food benefits under SNAP increased and be allowed to order groceries online to be delivered plus other things to but everyone is going to be hurting.

    Anybody who refuses to see that the Dems are blatantly and intentionally exacerbating and exploiting this crisis in order to further their political agenda at the expense of suffering Americans at this stage is either willfully ignorant, or just blind as a Wuhan soup bat.

    Did you hear the riders the Democrats have added to the relief bill. If you are a business, you need to pay minimum wage to $15 an hour. If you are a corporation and plan on laying of people, government will need to come in and audit your company to ensure you meet layoff criteria. 600 million to the endowment of the Arts... Nothing to do with COVID, just more money.... Solar power legislation.

    WTF are they continuing to add riders and not just getting COVID legislation out. People NEED ASSISTANCE and the Democrats are literally trying to destroy small business by dragging their F'ing feet!

    And for those here that are making this a partisan issue, you are part of the freaking problem. Get a clean bill, get it passed and get people some relief!

    I don't normally get pissed about politics, but what the democrats are doing is BEYOND disgusting!

    Here's an opportunity for trump to come out and chastise congress, you point out the politicians blocking the stimulus effort by demanding their pork be added, to be a real leader. But he isn't and he won't.

    It's like Christmas for the Dems! So many presents and goodies! It's a holiday feast!

    Don't worry, America, you'll get your crumbs after the Dems have stuffed themselves with pork.

    The part about the taxpayer-subsidized solar panels and the taxpayer-funded donation to the Endowment for the Arts. That's what the working people are really clamoring for right now.

    If the democrats were standing up for you... They would be presenting nothing more than a relief package for people who've been laid off (30% is now unemployed) a 0% interest loans to small businesses to help keep their doors open, but no!!! They are trying to get control of businesses, adding massive pork spending, environmental bills and not giving a rats ass about the common man! Everyone one of these who are trying to use this travesty to get hidden legislation should be brought up on treason!!!

    Well shoot, I guess you'll believe anything then, and I guess this means you won't be voting for Trump in November. Gosh darn it all to doom.

    Man, WTF...

    This goes to show how threatened they REALLY feel over this virus as the working class sits at home. It doesn't matter to them because the working class majority supports Trump.

    The loans help people, something that the Democratic Party apparently does not want to.

    The Russia hoax was a conspiracy. And no one in their right mind thinks Trump has ever acted like a victim.

    It's not a conspiracy when it's blatantly right out in the open. Yes, Nancy Pelosi's ego is quite massive though. She clearly judges it to be worth more than relieveing the suffering of the American public.

    It's clear that the Dems have given up an subtlety and subterfuge. It's right out in the open now.

    Without corporations, and small businesses there are no jobs. So much stupid from the left about a "bailout".

    And the dems will continue to play stupid about it... Reminds of those people who lead the police on a 300 mile, 2 state high speed chase and after getting pitted by the cops finally, they jump out and ask what they did wrong.

    This is proof the dems don’t want to help the American people. They want Americans to die, and they want Americans out of business.

    it’s sad...tragic...

    If I cared enough I can post dozens of tweets about him whining or demanding praise or attention, usually around the holidays. But I don’t as it will fall on deaf ears and blind eyes — so I am not going to bother.
