Cardin Dismisses Splitting Covid Relief Bill: Needs Are Urgent And They Are Now | MTP Daily | MSNBC
Needs are urgent. Stating the freakin obvious on the hour every hour.
Republicans need to go on record for a change.
They need to care about the people, not corporations!
Because they can’t stuff the bill full of pork for them and their donors as easily.
Hey Cuz, ” Make America Great Again”. Slogan for fundraising or Republicans meant it ? Are they going to get on board the A train and get some credit for helping ? “A for achievement”. It’s not a competition it’s their job now, not politicing. In my opinion
People and small businesses have been needing help all this time! A vital small business in my town is closing in a few days. All because they didn’t get help! What they did get was too little far too late. Who knows if any business will want to set up here in the future. They may say well, if a hardware store and a gas station can’t stay open what chance do we have?
“Need additional help” give us a break! What help did you give us compared with respected countries in the world? Banana republic 💨
Donald Trump for world President
We put Democrats in charge to do big things not get bipartisan half measures done. Just remember we could’ve had Bernie.

Order Out of Chaos has several meanings, ranging from nebulous metaphysical deeds to concrete social engineering. On a wider scale, this motto is the ultimate recipe for a drastic change in society: 1) An event causes chaos and panic 2) A solution surfaces which also happens to advance the agenda of the elite 3) Society changes without resistance.
The Republican party can no longer be trusted. It’s not the Democrats job to clean up the mess the Republicans made for themselves.
I say let the Dems push the relief package through both houses whether Reps like it or not. And when they cry about “this isn’t unifying” I would say all the Dems have to do is say “Amy Coney Barrett.” Reps pushed her through, without Dem support, for TRUMP, the Dems are doing this for the actual Country and the people who need relief. Let it be a lesson to the Reps.
Merck says human immune system is 98% effective
Really? What about near 400,00 dead?
@Kim Karcher
“ controlling the virus”
Neither side is gonna do ANYTHING that would be easy for them in order to actually help the people! They just wanna stall & keep blaming the other side why something isn’t getting done!!!
The problem isn’t splitting the bill. The problem is trusting the Republicans to support it even after all the “objectionable” parts are removed. They did it with the ACA–Obama changed parts the GOP didn’t like, in effect watering it down, and still the GOP didn’t vote for it. Why believe the same thing won’t happen with the relief bill?
Call the Republicans bluff. Split it up if you need to and make the things the Republicans vote against public. Let everyone see when they vote against feeding children, getting vaccines to seniors or support throwing people out of their hones.
I mostly vote republican and dont want them to pass these bills. Where do you think this money comes from?
@Joshua Garner well, gee. It comes from us. Where does the money come from to cover tax breaks to billionaires and corporations? Where does the money come from to bail out the airlines and oil corporations? This is a national emergency. This is what government is for. People are hurting. They need to keep a roof over their heads. Keep their kids fed. Pay medical bills. Pay mortuaries, sometimes for multiple deceased loved ones.
Regret voting for Biden…
Ive got a great idea. And hear me on this. How about we just go to work
