Republicans repeatedly refused to say what amount the President wanted for direct checks. At last, the President has agreed to $2,000 — Democrats are ready to bring this to the Floor this week by unanimous consent. Let’s do it! https://t.co/Th4sztrpLV— Nancy Pelosi (@SpeakerPelosi) December 23, 2020
If Trump says he's giving everyone CovidBucks and McConnell kills them, Kentuckians will lynch him. Chuds are already pissed he accepted the election results.
But then if McConnell gets his way then the Georgia races will probably favor the dems and so the dems would have the senate majority. In any case whatever happens in Georgia will be interesting.
Eh... still plays into Trump's hands I think. Because she's saying that she and the Dems were depending on Trump's demands for the stimulus checks to make up their minds on how much to give in said checks. She's saying that Trump didn't show his hands so this could easily be flipped against her so as to say that, if they could, the Dems would only be willing to give $600.
that's what it looks like
Nancy Pelosi's first and only smart political move???
No, because Mitch McConnell is still in the equation and he's consistently been shitting on the idea of stimulus checks too

I'll upbear that.
I'd give up my stimulus in exchange for politicians getting lynched when they defied their constituents
:party-sicko:
Never thought I'd be fighting side-by-side with a chud, but that'd do it
I'd set aside the fact that they want to kill me to tar and feather that turtle faced fuck and sting him up over Breonna Taylor's apartment complex
:sicko-yes:
Cogent analysis. Saved me a sweat.

It won't work, because Trump demands a stand-alone bill. And that's not going anywhere in Congress.
whatever happens, it's going to be immensely entertaining from here.
My gut says this is an attempt for Trump to solidify his populist support before attempting to use force to remain in power
There’s a part of me that feels like that would be worth $2k considering how shitty Bidens been so far.
