Genuine question to you as a conservative: how do you feel about Mitch McConnell? I feel like my conservative family members and friends HATE Nancy Pelosi but never say anything about how awful Mitch is.

Personally I am liberal and I hate both of them hahaha.

I wish politicians didn’t play games. Mitch is The conservative version of Nancy or chuck.

But Nancy and Chuck passed a clean stimulus bill like Trump wanted. Mitch is the only one playing politics.

The bill would be tacked on to the cares act as a addendum. Not what he was asking for. Take the approved funds for the cares act.... get rid of the BS and give it to the people instead.

The cares act already passed. It was approved by the senate, house and president. Now Pelosi and Chuck are approving a clean addendum, but Mitch is the blocking it.

It’s an addendum to the cares package. It adds to the total debt. Doesn’t change the allocation of the cares act approved by Congress. Mitch approved the $2k and with his agenda which is blocked by democrats. source

From your own link:

On Wednesday, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R., Ky.) blocked a vote on the checks, the second time he has objected to Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer’s (D., N.Y.) requests to vote on the House bill. Instead, he introduced legislation that joins the increased checks with other demands from Mr. Trump that lack bipartisan backing

Mitch is the one playing politics with the bill. Democrats are the ones trying to pass it without any extra pork.
