I think this was all pre-planned. The week which the other democrats were "negotiating" with the senate republicans, they knew that at the end, they were going to say no when Nancy comes in. This way, they wanted to do maximum damage. It was all pre-planned. Nancy couldn't have written a 1400 page bill over night.

Of course not.

Pro-tip - the pork doesn't even matter, really. It's about trying to force Trump's hand in either -

  • Sending people back to work, and them getting sick, or

  • Trump keeping people at home, and the economy tanking

Either way, they'll try to pin it on Trump.

Same old game. Take nothing, NOTHING, at face value.

Their play is to tank the economy. That's why I found it hard to believe they were negotiating in good faith and were "close to a deal". They know Biden will only have a shot at winning if they can ruin the economy.

Good faith? There is no good faith when dealing with demons. Trump and the GOP better wake up. Dems are not your friends (including CDC), they are not good people with bad ideas. They are rotten and corrupt to the core.

Do not negotiate with Democrats.

Trump isn't keeping anyone home. It is the State Government that has issued unlawful shelter in place orders.

Her brother in law Ron’s connection to SolarReserve and Crescent Dunes has been indeed shit since at least October so you know how long that’s been in the works https://townhall.com/columnists/rossmarchand/2019/10/09/crescent-dunes-solar-is-doomed-as-taxpayers-pick-up-the-tab-n2554430

They have these bills stacked up ready to pop out. How can anyone read 1400 pages on short notice?

You have to vote for it to read it

In about 3 years of not working too hard I wrote over a million words of fiction and had to constantly recheck for consistency. These bills are much more difficult writing, imo. They must have templates they can use over and over, prepared by many people. Bills should be limited to one topic and no more than 200 pages, that would be the biggest boost ever to transparency.

A rewrite of something he's written at least once before, but it can't be repeated enough. tldr, Legislators are just stand-ins for lobbyists who are bribing their agenda into law. Read it and gnash your teeth. However, I was just musing from my own experience on how hard it is to even check your own writing when it gets so massive. There should be some red pills in this for the trusting public.

Pre-planned for sure. For years, they (politicians) have all the individual "wish list" pieces written and waiting. They just put them in a template and add some text relevant to the current situation when a Bill is needed.

I am wondering how much of the Senate version can be done through Executive Order.

Pass it to find out what is in it..... Ombamacare version 2, when they get away with it once, of course they will do it again.
