Show Notes

Democrats Obstructed Stimulus, Holding Us Hostage For Ideological Gain, And Now People Are Suffering. Last week Republicans tried to add 250 billion dollars to small business relief but the Democrats obstructed the bill for ideological reasons. Democrats completely agreed with Republicans on the need for more aid to small business but demanded several new provisions including some social justice requirements. Becuase of this delay the Paycheck protection program has now run out of money and Democrats say they don't plan to reconvene until May. This means we can expect more unemployment in the coming weeks, more people going hungry. Why would Democrats do this? To hurt Trump? Maybe they think more unemployment will hurt his reelection chances. At any rate it seems absurd Democrats would block a bill they supported especially during an emergency in an effort to get ideological provisions added.
