I love how you failed to provide a source for this.
What source are you looking for? Go read pelosi's damned proposal, it's all there in plain writing. Should I start scanning the entire document and be posting it here one by one? I think I'll go ahead and do just that. Just hold on, it's gonna be a long day for y'all liberals supporting Nancy pelosi and her gang of a do nothing democrat politicians who are only interested in passing foolish left-wing agendas instead of getting aid to the people

Imagine this when we have an emergency on our hands.

Btw, you forgot to add the green new deal and carbon promise from airlines, which is a code word for 'kickbacks' as Democrats will never release money if they can't get their own cuts from it. Standard kickback in Washington is 5%.
Exactly!! It's getting absolutely ridiculous, people are dying and losing their business and the do nothing Dems see it as an opportunity to hold up aid package unless their stupid green new deal and abortion funding is included. These people are nuts!!!

Families and businesses need help now to survive the China virus pandemic. But Speaker Pelosi walked away from negotiations to write her own bill, full of absurd provisions completely unrelated to the crisis at hand. Here’s what Speaker Pelosi is demanding while Americans suffer:

1. Corporate pay statistics by race and race statistics for all corporate boards at companies receiving assistance

2. Bailing out all current debt of postal service

3. Required early voting (WTF has this to do with the virushuh )

4. Required same day voter registration huh

5. 10k bailout for student loans

6. For companies accepting assistance, 1/3 of board members must be chosen by workers

7. Provisions on official time for union collective bargaining

8. Full offset of airline emissions by 2025

9. Greenhouse gas statistics for individual flights

The Democrats see an opportunity in this crisis. Not to help the American people, but to hold an emergency relief bill hostage until they get their radical wish list.

The package is evolving daily with input from both parties. It was initially more a corporate bailout and most of the funds would still go to corporate America one way or the other.

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/senate-coronavirus-stimulus-package-whats-in-it
Lol, it's now evolving? The bailout you're talking about is to keep the companies from sacking their workers during the coronavirus lockdown, that's the condition and they mustn't use the funds to buy back their own stocks. The conditions are clearly stated. The bailout is essentially for the common Americans working in all those industries who no longer have to worry about losing their jobs. There are checks and oversight provisions attached to it to make sure it can't be used for personal benefit. You all seem to forget that is everyday Americans that make up majority of the workers in the industries affected
Foreign AffairsRe: American Politics Thread: Trump Is The 47th President! by garetz:
Maybe Budaatum will like crazy Nancy pelosi's package better. It includes;

1. $33,200,000 for the NOAA

2. $278,000,000 for the IRS

3. $35,000,000 for the JFK performing arts center.

4. $90,000,000 for an HIV program

5. $36,000,000 for National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences

6. $7,000,000 for one specific DC charter school, Gallaudet University

7. Howard University gets a $23,000,000, Howard’s Endowment: $647,000,000

8. $1,000,000 for the Sergeant at Arms and Doorkeeper of the Senate. grin

9. $300,000,000 for illegal immigrants sad

10. $100,000,000 for NASA

What the hell does all these have to do with fighting the coronavirus? This is ridiculous

The Republican package as currently laid out, is not to "ease the pain on the American people", but to ease the pain on corporate America!

Instead of socialism for the people, it is socialism for the wealthy who own corporate America.
Can you please point out which exact part of the Republican package represents this claim you are making? Or at least tell us what provision was made in the deal that excludes the common American man and caters for only corporate America.

Trump had more than 55% Americans approving his handling of coronavirus. But you won't see CNN and Co report it. Even if they did, bias would still be apparent. grin
Liberal media has nothing on Trump seriously. He'd be remembered as the only president that fought the media alone and won against all odds. He'd also be remembered as the toughest, funniest and the most stubborn president in American history. And many more, America can't forget his tenure seriously no matter how it goes. grin
Majority of Americans are smart and can see through the media BS. The only people who are criticizing Trump's performance are those Democratic party supporters who wanted him to fail even before the virus got to the US. Trump could find the cure for AIDS and they will still find fault with it. It must be eating them raw to see that Trump is not losing any popularity as a result of this Chinese virus outbreak because the only thing they are interested in is how it can affect Trump's reelection chances.

Which is why COVID-19 is aptly named:

the Chinese Virus

You people can't just seem to leave CNN alone..I thought you said it is fake news?So why watching..


Ohh I know,Because deep down in you,you know they are telling you the truth
Using CNN and truth in the same sentence is an abomination. Many of us just watch it to know what's the latest liberal TDS induced outrage and of course for their comedy value. No one watches CNN to know the truth

Did you also catch Acosta and Cuomo accusing Trump of xenophobia because he correctly said the coronavirus was a foreign virus that originated in China? These are the jokes cutieking is calling "purely private news media". Fake News liberal propagandists all of them.

Liberals are just seeing the Coronavirus as an opportunity to make President Donald Trump look bad and hurt him politically, you can see them even on this thread hoping the virus outbreak gets worse and for the economy to crash so they can blame Trump. These people are sick.

Analysis: Facing virus outbreak, Trump’s tactics fall short

https://apnews.com/3441fea7832f3c4a1e45efa87fa2f29e

NEW YORK (AP) — The escalating coronavirus crisis is presenting President Donald Trump with a challenge for which he appears ill-equipped, his favorite political tactics ineffective and his reelection chances in jeopardy.

A rare crisis battering the White House that is not of the president’s own making, the spreading coronavirus has panicked global financial markets and alarmed Americans, many of whom have turned to the Oval Office for guidance and reassurances. But what they have found is a president struggling for a solution, unable to settle Wall Street and proving particularly vulnerable to a threat that is out of his control.

In an address to the nation Wednesday night, Trump announced a sweeping travel ban for much of Europe as well as a package of proposals to help steady the teetering economy. But he continued to play down the severity of the situation, painting it as a foreign threat that soon will be banished rather than focusing on managing the growing number of cases at home.

“This is the most aggressive and comprehensive effort to confront a foreign virus in modern history,” Trump declared.

Addressing the economic costs, he added, “This is not a financial crisis, this is just a temporary moment of time that we will overcome together as a nation and as a world.”

The virus does not have a Twitter account and, unlike so many previous Trump foes, is resistant to political bullying or Republican Party solidarity. It has preyed on his lack of curiosity and fears of germs while exposing divides and inadequacies within senior levels of his administration. It has taken away Trump’s favorite political tool, his rallies, from which he draws energy and coveted voter information.

And eight months from Election Day, it has endangered his best reelection argument — a strong economy — just as Joe Biden, the candidate emerging from the Democratic field, seems poised to take advantage of a political landscape upended by the virus.

Fox news was established by Republicans to promote Republican programs and propaganda while others are purely private news media.if you doubt this Google is your friend.
Fox news get more viewers because they appeal to conservatives who are the majority in america while others have different media outlets to choose from.
Those fake news peddlers you're referring to as "purely private news media" are more propagandists than Fox will ever be. They are all liberal hacks who are out to spread liberal propaganda and lies to keep deciving people who are dumb enough to believe them. Trump was right to call them the enemy of the people because that's exactly what they are.

I don't think you have any idea what was going on before Covid19 and I'm not going to go into mudslinging with you. Go check USA house prices and the transport index. Both are lead indicators and have been tanking for a while now.

Thankfully, Trump is now taking this more seriously than you seem to be doing. Helicopter money soon.
Common sense should tell you that if the economy was in a bad shape, it should be tanking now with the coronavirus issue as well as the oil supply dispute compounding issues, the only reason why it is holding up now is because it was in a great shape. All indices from the job market report to the consumer index report to stock exchange all showed the economy was in the greatest shape it has been in half a decade. The only reason why your dreams for a recession is not becoming a reality is because the economy is great. When you present real facts and figures to back up your absurd and ridiculous claims about the economy then I will listen to you. An economy that even in the middle of the coronavirus outbreak still exceeded excpectations by adding 100,000 more jobs than predicted was in a bad shape? Only in your liberal fantasy world is that happening

You lying son of a doorknob, only 4000 Americans were killed by the H1N1, the Obama administration set up pandemic centers in 35 countries, your brain dead lord cut it off. The joint national security and CDC office for pandemic was scrapped by your boxhead lord. The difference is that other administration show empathy during crisis and try to solve the problem, while this idiot is concerned about stock market, economy and rating. Main reason won't even let the ship on the coast of Florida to let the people go to an isolation center. You are too dumb to know.
Can you see your hypocritical life? You are now calling 4,000 deaths"only" because it happened under Obama but you want us to believe that Trump's handling of the coronavirus is a disaster with 22 deaths. You must think I'm one of your ignorant liberals, the deaths from the H1N1 swine flu outbreak under your blundering loser O'bummer were over 12,000. You said not a word then but you here running your mouth over Trump who is doing a far better job than the loser O'bummer. You're a confirmed hypocrite!!

You are funny. Love how you stick your head in the sand. Americas economy had been deteriorating long before Covid19 arrived on the scene, but I guess you wouldn't have known about it since you are more words with no money in the game.

As I said, no, I do not want a recession because a recession will affect the entire world and not just Trump. But it's not up to me since I don't have the powers to make one happen or not.
Which economy was deteriorating long before the covid19? Good Lord!! From where do you live all get all these mind boggling lies you peddle here? It's as if there's a factory somewhere where all these lies are cooked up and fed you liberals every morning. Why have you all been desperately praying for an economic downturn? Is it not because the economy has been roaring and you're afraid that Trump will be reelected if the economy keeps looking good. All of a sudden, you want to start claiming the economy was bad all along forgetting when you were trying to claim the glory of the booming economy as Obama's handwork. Try another lie, this one won't fly, one has to be a dumbo to believe it.
