“What the hell are we doing? Republicans lost financial aid

Amid internal divisions and clashes with the Trump administration, Senate Republicans on Tuesday downplayed customers from enacting a new coronavirus relief before key systems expire, such as major unemployment bills… t been. It even started.

At a closed-door Senate meeting yesterday, Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) allegedly asked his colleagues, regarding the economic talks, “What the hell are we doing?”

It’s probably a rhetorical question, but let’s move on and answer: what Republicans are doing is a failure. With just a few days to disappear the main economic bailout lines, Republican officials don’t even seem to agree with each other on the intellectual guidelines of a Phase IV aid program.

The only thing Republicans seem to be united in is the same as the existing weekly supplement of $60 for the uns hired, which are also the top logical priorities of Congressional Democrats.

In theory, this would be the moment when a White House team would line up the president and his party, yet Donald Trump and his aides barely seem to try. A Washington Post report noted that there were party talks at the White House, but the president and his team “did not participate in conversations with a pre-explained strategy or a set of proposals with which they knew Republican lawmakers would agree.” a miscalculation created immediate problems.”

Reporters last night asked Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) If you expected Congress to pass an aid program until the end of next week. The Republican senator not only said, “No,” the hounds also heard him laugh.

I can understand why, the assumption that GOP officials succeed in government is, too often, derisory, there is nothing to block in the circumstances. As we refused yesterday, time is running out for millions of families facing a brutal cliff.

As Paul Krugguy of the New York Times explained in a new column, the weekly supplement of $60 for uns hired “only applies to weeks of benefits ending” on or before July 31. “July 31 is a Friday. State unemployment benefits regularly end on Saturdays or Sundays. Therefore, the supplement will end in the maximum countries on July 2 and 26, and millions of employees will see their income drop by 60% or more in more than one day. from now on.”

In addition, a report from NBC News added this week: “In the absence of a nationwide moratorium on evictions, maximum protections have been installed at state and local posts, and have expired at a post or will expire in more than a week. A federal law banning house evictions served through mortgages financed by best friends expires on Saturday.”

It’s this Saturday, that is, the moratorium on evictions for mortgages with best friends backed by friends ends this week, sometime before the expiration of improved unemployment benefits.

Republicans have had 10 weeks to move on because of a plan, but they don’t seem to dominate what they’re doing. He might also be tempted to mention that the Republican Party has made clear the transition from being a ruling party and instead has a post-political party.
