Trump Admin Stimulus Pkg

[LPS]

I thought it was a done deal a few days ago.  Like JG Wentworth.  "HEY I WANT MY MONEY AND I WANT IT NOW!"  I want to either move out of my Mom's basement or else get a bigger TV down here. 

[Rebel SS]

That's what I thought too.....that's why I don't follow politics. Makes no sense to me and I never could understand 'em.

[delcecchi]

I thought the stimulus thing was a done deal...? Now saw Pelosi on the news, said it needs some tweaking, and hope to have it done by NEXT TUESDAY.....
Some guy I didn't recognize said this is insane; the people need the money NOW....so, what's goin' on?

Collective bargaining, corporate board diversity checks, $15 minimum wage, Green new deal....   

[Rebel SS]

Think I'll go make an omelette.

Lucky you! Went grocery shoping yerterday at da Jewel. NO EGGS At ALL. Only had dem chocolate Easter eggs

[Jerkbiat]

I said that 2 days ago that after the senate passed the bill it still had to go thru the house before it would get to Trump. And you knew Pelosi was going to screw with it.

[LPS]

Just saw on the Morning Show.  Yes even Retirees that only get SS will get the $1200 Stimulus check.  You will not be taxed on it.  Line 8B on your tax form.  Your adjusted gross income.

Pelosi is "all in" on trying to take out Trump and doesn't care what it costs.  She'll so anything she can to muck up the works to make the administration less effective thinking this will help the Dems in the fall election.

During 9/11 even bitter political rivals were smart enough to know it was in the best interest of the country to work together.  Apparently Nancy didn't learn that lesson.

[Reinhard]

I think the vote will happen today.  Some stuffed shirt [Massie}  want's a voice vote and said there would be no quorum for a voice vote.  However the leadership is shipping in more of the swamp dwellers so there will be a quorum. So leadership on both sides  believe there will be a vote today.  Trump will sign it right away when it's brought to him.  good luck.

yea the last I read it was a rebulican that sounded like he was going to hold up the vote. it doesn't matter I hope this election all those wave wacko's get voted out!!!!!!!!!!! man this sheet is getting discusting. even in this termoi neither side can work together. 

[LPS]

Like I said earlier.  I will vote for no incumbents.  They need to get the message that we don't like the way things are working now!

[Reinhard]

I think there are some folks in DC who do a good job.  The problem to me is that they are there too long.  Some will say election time is a form of term limit.  True, but there are too many districts across this country where each party has a stronghold and no other candidates from the other party has a chance.  My district has been republican for a long time.  Omar's district has been a dem district forever.  Look how long Pelosi has been in Congress for example.  So we need term limits.  But then again even if you have term limits when you have districts controlled by one party, term limits are useless.  :confused:good luck.

[LPS]

I am all for term limits for all politicians.  Times change and attitudes do too.

i'll be the first to admit I was one that firmly believed elections were term limits, but have since changed my mind 100%. there is also something to be said about longevity and experience holding a position for a long time, but at this point, especially in politics, its counter productive. and Reiny you have a valid point regarding some of the districts, some of that will never change. unless like what happened in Omar's district where she ousted this Phylis Kahn in the Minnesota house sevral years back.

with that being said, until the voters actually vote these long term politicans out and we get new fresh blood in there these politicians will never support term limits. unless somehow it could get put on a ballot as a referendum for ALL voters to decide.

In those districts the primary is the election. That's how we got AOC in congress.  She beat a complacent incumbent

[Reinhard]

Yes he was Del.  Was in the swamp for years.  Figured he was a shoe in and didn't even campaign much.  But even in those districts a dem liberal would of won anyway, but this time they got a nutcase.  good luck.

[glenn57]

now I see the Massie is demanding/ insisting a recorded vote and will in all accounts hold this vote up.

and he is an (R) so its both sides the isle being idiots!!!!!!!! weather you agree with the stimulas package or not.
