re: #103 Michele: Out of the closet, Into the fire

It’s a poison pill and he knows it. He wants it added to kill any more stimulus bills.

Not so much a poison pill as his setting the bar higher with each succeeding bill. He got what he wanted in the first bill, which was a massive giveaway to his corporate buddies. And even then, he had to be arm-twisted into accepting any sort of help for workers themselves. With each new bill, he’s raised the bar on what he’ll need to allow Dems to get any sort of aid to Americans.

He knows that state/city aid is pretty much an inevitability, even red states are all but begging him to make it happen. Liability protection isn’t a “poison pill,” it’s the price his corporate masters are asking for “their money” going to the states.
