Enough R's isolated due to corona just in time to see the bill fail to advance. I really don't like the whole idea of empty bills passed and final wording put in later but this move makes the Dems look like they are totally against delivering assistance. With those missing Senators present to vote for advancement, the Dems persistance to go against anything POTUS does would have been muted.

According to the article, it would have required 2/3 to advance, not a simple majority.

These Jews like Schumer are trying to pass a fucked up one that gives gibs to shiftless niggers and Banks.
They only want to give workers next years estimated tax returns. It is a scam don't take that deal if you can afford to. This will be a big test for Trump if he really bails out the American people or fucks us with the same 2008 deal. Meanwhile giving trillions to the Jewish Central bankers and billions to Israel.

So the Senate Democrats were told to fake out the Country until Pelosi got back in town with their 'real' boss's figures with their own bill??

And any monies should go to people who were actually working before the Lockdown. If your already home bound on SSI and food stamps and cable what would be the change for you?
