    1. @AlwaysNerdy TV : I Trust Nancy Pelosi, before any of this Republicans who are Still Trying to Destroy ACA-OBAMACARE for 30MILLON Americans… IN THE MIDDLE OF A PANDEMIC… Go Figure.

    2. @Jackie Beckwith : Your hero LYING KING Donald Trump spends two hours every morning, and 70,000 a year fixing his hair… Try again CUPCAKES.

    3. Y’all go talk with PELOSI she won’t get a deal done bcos she don’t want TRUMPS name on the check why y’all cryin to Mitch?😂😂😂😂😂

    4. @Lanzo Lukepas : WRONG… Nancy Pelosi wants 3T to help Businesses stay open, and to help the Unemployed for the next year… Trump only cares about himself and his Tax CUTS for the RICH… Besides, Is my TAXmoney… Why do I need Trump’s Name on my check?… GET INFORMED IGNORAMUS.

    5. Pelosi stopped $2 trillion stimulus deal to forever stop money going to poor democrats. That means we go in a depression, businesses are closing like crazy so there’s no money for welfare. She knows it may backfire on her, but she knows this is her only slim chance she has to destroy Trump from bringing our jobs back from China.

  1. Can we get a stimulus package WITHOUT bailing out the rich? They’ve already received 3 bailouts so far and a major tax cut for themselves. And the people can’t get $600 a week? that’ll make us lazy?

  2. McConnell robbed ppp loans for millions for his wife family. Must be nice. The Greed is real Mitch is a fake feebleminded Clown!

    1. Lol Pelosi is the one who denied the bill?! Why are you blaming anyone else for Pelosi’s lack of compassion. For the American people?!

    2. Pelosi’s husband and his buddies received millions. Million dollar law firms and others. Don’t kid yourself.

    1. Candace Jacallen….ikr…. it’ll be COLD soon…. imagine this ANIMAL getting reelected and laughing at other’s MISERY…..it’s WHAT Republicans are ALL about !!!

    2. You mean “vote her out”. Think some ppl need to do their research. Trump is the only president in my 40 years of being here that actually done dam near everything he said he would do. Also, he is very open with the things he does…i love that. The last 4or5 presidents never let us know what they was up to….cause 99% of the time it was no good

    3. @Jamison Headcup 😂😂😂You sound funny. If you like all the stuff he’s done, then that says a lot about YOUR morals and there really is a BIG riff in this nation. 🙄

    1. @RuleofFive the United States 2020 population is estimated at 331,002,651 people at mid year… If it were $3 trillion package it would be around $9K per person. Which honestly most average hard working citizens would be grateful for.

    2. @Lissa Sully I agree I was only saying that it would not add up to a million dollars per American. I want another stimulus. I’m out of work for several months and I’m digging into savings to hang on. So another stimulus is a welcome thing. The $600 per week over the next six months would be more than that. Getting past Mitch and the Senate is the problem.

  3. the masters love using taxes like a nose ring on a bull to steer people to perform the way they want them to – nobody should pay taxes not just the rich – MMT is here, just admit it and let’s get it right.

  4. And Moscow Mitch just laughed when asked about it. And don’t forget the rest of his complicit, corrupt Republican Senate Majority swamp who want to grab everything for the wealthy (themselves included) but can’t get their leader to bring any bill that would help americans dto the Senate floor for a vote. they’d then have to reveal how they don’t care about real americans, only the “people” (SCOTUS word for corporations) who feed their campaigns. By all means, Republicans will conitnue their corporate socialism but forget about everyone else.

    1. @Cory Mcneil Do you know why he was laughing. It’s because he was being questioned by somebody who didn’t know what they were talking about.. You do know in Nancy pelosi’s bill she want to give $1,200 to illegal immigrants.. She wants to bail out Democratic States or let me say bailout her pockets..

    2. @Myron Helton Trump’s not going to bring your jobs back from China. You’re being scammed and suckered. Trump had 4 years to reduce the trade deficit and it was only reduced by a negligible $2B. Ask yourself why German manufacturing has balanced trade with China and why the personal income tax rate in Germany is 45%? . Hmm.. put your thinking cap on.

  5. The Republicans are the bad guys, no doubt. However, maybe, just maybe you and Schumer should have listen to the progressives with the first relief package. You two gave up your bargaining power when the Republicans needed something very bad. That bill was pushed through in a matter of days and the Republicans got everything they asked for. Jake Tapper brought this up to you in an interview in May and you got mad and said
    “ Everyone needs to calm down.” The fact is when you gave the Republicans everything they wanted upfront you gave your bargaining power away. So, some of the blame goes right back on you and Schumer.

  6. When in power, shange the rules to stay in power. It’s a party giving in to totaliarism. Godbay America.

  7. This Ain’t nothin but A bunch of old all but dead men trying to hold desperately on to power and old ladies want so much for the old days to control their stuff. God bless America.

  8. THE RELIEF PACKAGE SHOULD BE RELEASED IMMEDIATELY .TO AMERICAN PEOPLE . THEY NEEDS HELP DUE TO VIRUS PANDEMIC !

  9. These bills could be passed right away if they weren’t filled with things that have nothing to do with the main bill.

    1. Really …. please tell us what the main bill is then. Give us the breakdown of what the top 5 items are and what the money for them is.

  10. All politicians are dirty. Even Pelosi. She’s worth hundreds of millions somehow after being a lifelong politician. How??????
