Confident of their ability to defeat Trump with their radical, pro-illegal immigrant, pro-criminal, pro-socialist agenda, the left is badly overreaching. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s proposed $3 trillion monstrosity stimulus is a joke. The trillions they pledged under the rubric of the COVID-19 disaster is trillions more added to our national debt. The stimulus will be money printed, distributed, and spent as if it is grown on trees. Irresponsible states such as California, New York, New Jersey, and Illinois hope to use the virus to cheat the American taxpayers into rescuing them from their own profligacy.

my guess is the spineless republicans will give her 2 more trillion and talk about what they didnt give her. seen it my whole life and watched our dept move from less than a trillion. only perot and trump gave hope on this important issue however so far trump doesnt even have the balls to stop the spending or even stick to a budget.

"The Left"...like "The Right" there are different divisions of the same construct that may appear in consonance, but are not.
On both sides we have the true believers, from AOC and The Squad to the Tea Party and some rumored Republican politicians in clubs like the Liberty Caucus, chaired by Justin Amash.
And then there are the pros, the Pelosi/Schumer Dems and McConnell/(ex-Ryan) McCarthy Republicans...and while the true believers are shouting at one another, the UNIPARTY is raiding the Treasury in their peculiar bi-partisan fashion spreading around TRILLIONS that don't exist for their special interest sponsors and patrons. And, as a special treat, this time they've even cut in the public for a tipple.
There's still a long road to November...and those Dump Trump fan blades will be further stressed by incoming Shtuff. In the meantime, this crisis is hardly being wasted.

It isn't just the Left anymore, the Uniparty is moving the goalposts so fast it is hard to keep up. There are plenty of republicans, aka RINOS, cuckservatives, and GOPE types who are in quiet and wholehearted agreement with the Left. Billy Kristolmeth has organized a whole bunch of NeverTrumpers to rally to protect the shutdowns and other favorite causes against us and Trump. Beyond evil and twisted people.

Consider that Gavin Newsom and the 11-state pact governors just a few days ago declared they alone, "the 11", needed $1 trillion just for them.
And, the Nancy package only allocates $1 trillion for all 50 states.
We have not even fully allocated what was in the last $2.3 trillion package, so to think they know what they need now, is definitely hubris.
But, the bailout of state and local governments is to signal that "we Democrats" have your back, and that's why you vote blue each election.
Yet, Nancy didn't host committee meetings, or anything of the sort, she simply allowed the special interests and Democrat operatives write her wish-list proposal. I'm sure she wants to pass it so she can find out what's in it,again.

"The end justifies any means," advises "Rules for Radicals," author, Saul Alinsky. His strategic weapons? Misinformation, radical protest, and “projection” (attacking the other guy personally, blaming him for whatever you, the liberal politician or activist, are guilty of). His power tactics: maintain maximum pressure using every-day events to fabricate crisis upon crisis, week after week, each demanding urgent action to confuse and infuriate the opposition, and foster perfect conditions for radical change.
The King Kong virus is no hoax. But Alinskyite Democrats are manipulating the virus "crisis" as a smokescreen for meeting their insidious political objectives. In this case, further turning America into a welfare state with the recently unemployed (their illegals pals, included) kept by Blue State governments from returning to work, and dependent on government handouts.

If the Democrats are truly "confident of their ability to defeat Trump," it's through vote fraud, and everyone, except the brainwashed masses of regular Democrat voters, knows it.
