Looks like Donny may have painted McConnell and the Repubs. in a corner with the $2000 trump bucks. If McConnell refuses to hold a vote, Bernie is gonna object to the defense bill and force Congress to stay in session during the New Year holiday.
Bernie "No more bombs until we help our people" Sanders's rhetoric will put Perdue and Loeffler in a difficult position.
Most likely McConnell would rather lose the majority and win it back in two years rather than have the majority-- and have to actually do something that would help the unwashed masses.
Lil' marco is already on board
Anytime anyone tries to sell you on GOP populism, remind them that McConnell won his race by 20
Perdue/Loeffler --Come On Down!
"A growing number of Republican senators have endorsed higher stimulus payments, including Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue, both Georgia lawmakers facing tight runoff elections next week, who announced on Tuesday that they supported larger stimulus checks.
They joined a handful of others, including Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri, and Senator Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who have backed increasing the checks to $2,000. But the majority of Senate Republicans have so far remained opposed to the plan."
