When House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the $3 trillion coronavirus spending bill she and her allies had written--a bill passed by House Democrats Friday night with only a single Republican vote in support--my first reaction was that it would be dead on arrival in the Senate and that the move made no sense.(Snip)Pelosi is a survivor. She is tough. She is hardworking, and she has been through a lot of campaigns--and seen and executed a lot of maneuvers. Therefore, you must assume there is a sound strategic reason for Pelosi to bring forward a bill that is this radical, expensive, and controversial.

She's offering bribes to voters.

Probably true. Pelosi is not especially sharp in many ways, but she is conniving, devious, manipulative, and cunning when it comes to power politics.

Fist, I would like to know who the Republican was that voted for this really, really, stupid bill. No Republican in the Senate will vote for this bill. Yes, Pelosi is planning to use this bill failure as a political weapon. She, and all the Democrats, have done nothing but try to oust Trump since he was elected. Pelosi has done nothing for the nation in the last 3 years.

Yup, its just Nancy's little preview of coming attractions. The only problem is that hard-core communist voters are not the only ones sitting in the theater. In addition to the ever-present political geeks there are now millions of home bound Americans who once led productive lives that left them little time for politics. They've endured a lot under house arrest and have had the time to see, hear and experience the real world consequences of "progressive" policies. The commies have overplayed their hand and overstayed their welcome, yet they are gripped by panic and unable to think and behave in any other manner.
MAGA:KAG - The Big Ugly is here. Hang tough Trumpers.

The problem with the Republicans is, while the Democrats vote in lockstep, a lot of Republicans are “UniParty” wimps who are scared to death to offend the Democrats, who in a minute would kick those wimpy Republicans into the gutter.

Newt knows well that this is a House Christmas tree. He knows well that most of the nonsense will fall away in final negotiations. He knows some of the foolish stuff will come through, because Mitch will decide "It was the best we could do", and Mitch is a UNIPARTY stalwart who wants badly to spread that THREE TRILLION around like everyone else, both to his home state and to his supporting special interests. And the little guy will get his beak wet, too. $1200 wasn't enough...how about $6000?

It's no secret...she absolutely knows it won't get through the Senate the way it is, and if by some insane reason it does get pared down and Trump refuses to sign it, she can then harp that the President didn't want to yada yada yada...she needs to go away..permanently...sad that so many good people die and those like her keep on running like the Energizer bunny....beating her liberal drum...

We know Pelosi is crazy but I'm more worried about what McConnell will do. Is he considering trade offs in order to pass something and make it look like Congress is doing something? Usually all Mitch cares about is getting something for his state. I certainly hope Trump is not wanting to sign anything to appear to be doing something also.

Her goal is to wipe out the middle class and bring back a modern feudal system where she and her rich buddies can enjoy the beaches of California and all the national parks without having to put up with the riff raff.

This bill is was not created by Pelosi. She has a committee that write eveything up for her. She is only given the bullet points. "You have to pass the bill in order to know what's in it." Yeah, that Pelosi! Does anyone actually think she can write a paragraph. I heard her answer a question on one of the shows yesterday. You could tell she was reading the prepared answer to it. Which meant she knew the question before hand. When has to speak off the cuff, she's worse than Biden. She couldn't remember Gavin Newsom or Kevin McCarthy's names.

Nancy still doesn't get it.
Trump will lead & pound dem with this with the rest of GOP following in the hammering.
This is an easy target & Trump is the marksmen.
The Speaker's gavel will hit her hard.

She is very good at setting up ambushes.

She puts all this outlandish rubbish in the bill so when they bargain and she gives up something, she can tell liberals the Republicans are mean and hate them. She gets exactly what she wants.
When she came out with that mask on the other day, I couldn't help but call her what she is- a robber.

Newt offers sound reasoning forNancy’s strategy such as this being a base turnout election with Republicans more energized thanDemocrats. The bill designed to mobilize cannibus users; pro-abortion activists; illegals; tax cuts for richest in blue states; cash for debt-ridden states, especially pension debt to stir support from unions. Possibly counting on Republicans and Independents losing focus so in a few weeks they will have forgotten this monstrous bill. Her base will be fired-up to elect JoeBiden as well asDemocrat majorities in the House and Senate “so they can get the ideological and financial goodies she has woven into this bill.”
