I'd say cut OH some slack at the moment; he hasn't been making personal attacks, and although I'm not following these relief bill negotiations, this argument sounds pretty good to me:-

Preciate it.

It’s frustrating as **** when it’s right there and then one of them goes oh we need this we need that

Pelosi’s bill is especially ridiculous.

That’s actually quite insulting. I took it as an attack.

Sigh. Well then surely it must be so.

Food rent everything I’ll be about $350 under what I need with no assistance. This time next month.

So you can wait for something better?

I don’t think it’s worth the risk of no relief happening at all.

I think everyday they postpone it the chances of it not happening at all increase considerably.

A series of polls released this week showed Mr. Trump receiving some of the highest marks of his presidency.

A Gallup poll published on Tuesday showed Mr. Trump’s overall approval rating tied for its highest point in his presidency, at 49 percent. Sixty percent of Americans gave him positive reviews for his handling of the coronavirus situation.

Most strikingly, his job approval among independents rose to 43 percent from 35 percent earlier this month, and it rose among Democrats — yes, Democrats — to 13 percent, from 7 percent. More than a quarter — 27 percent — of Democrats approve of his response to the coronavirus pandemic.

There’s one ****ing reason. He wants to send people money and that actually helps people in a tangible way. The dems **** this up they deserve what they get.

Yeah, **** Bernie for wanting to give you $2,000 a month instead of settling on a one time check of $1,200.

If you have a smartphone, you’re probably contributing to a massive coronavirus surveillance system.

And it’s revealing where Americans have — and haven’t — been practicing social distancing.

On Tuesday, a company called Unacast that collects and analyzes phone GPS location data launched a “Social Distancing Scoreboard” that grades, county by county, which residents are changing behavior at the urging of health officials. It uses the reduction in the total distance we travel as a rough index for whether we’re staying put at home.
