CNN’s Manu Raju reports that Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is pushing back the possibility of another economic stimulus bill even further, from right after election as President Donald Trump promised if he wins to after the New Year no matter what happens Tuesday:
McConnell pours cold water on doing a stimulus package in lame-duck, which is what Pelosi’s pushing for, and says it’s better to do at beginning of year. “I think that’ll be something we’ll need to do right at the beginning of the year,” he said on Hugh Hewitt’s radio show

It’s “unfathomable,” Sen. Cory Gardner didn’t say. But for economists and public health authorities warning of a nightmarish winter ahead, and millions of Americans who needed help many months ago while Gardner pretended to hear them, this is very tough news.

Again. Republicans have shown what their priorities are and aren't. I hope voters remember that for a VERY long time.
And on Tuesday, America says eat shit McConnell.
Hopefully, the voters in Kentucky now see clearly who has been making their hard lives even harder, and shorter.
They don’t care about that. As long as he protects their rights to their gun and Jesus, they don’t a rat’s ass if he takes away health care or gives big tax cuts to rich people (none of whom live in Kentucky), they’re fine with him.
He may be one of the most unpopular politicians in Kentucky but he is going to win by about 10% to 15% margin because the voters there hate and fear everyone else more.
Sad but true.
not a chance.
At least we know who runs the Republican party agenda.
I believe his name is Lucifer, though some call him other things.
