There’s a very simple explanation for why Democrats didn’t get a “better” stimulus deal. They are negotiating with a political party that is indifferent to human suffering.
The reason Republicans finally agreed to a COVID relief deal is to help Perdue and Loeffler ... so they can maintain control of a legislative body to which they are committed to doing nothing but stopping Democratic efforts to help their fellow citizens
Blaming Democrats for not getting a better deal when Senate Republicans have opposed and stymied more stimulus for seven months is maddening. Democrats are far from perfect but this isn’t on them.
This is like blaming the hostage negotiator when the kidnapper starts executing captives.
