Horowitz: Don’t count on Republicans opposing Pelosi’s panic bill. Make SURE of it
Daniel Horowitz · May 13, 2020
There’s no way Republicans would agree to the new $3 trillion Pelosi bill, right? A $900 billion bailout for the states, $75 billion for mortgage bailout, $100 billion for a renter bailout, $25 billion for the U.S. Postal Service, a $100 billion bailout for schools that didn’t lose any money and actually saved on overhead, and another round of $1,200 checks for adults making up to $75,000 along with the same amount per child, even if they never lost any income during the shutdown. There’s no way Republicans will support this, right? Wrong.
Republicans already passed a bill pretty similar to this one, and the same man who negotiated that bill for Trump doesn’t appear to have a problem with new spending. CNBC reports that Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was “unfazed†by the staggering debt we are amassing because of our strategy to deal with coronavirus. “One of the reasons I do feel comfortable with us spending all this money is because interest rates are very low. And we’re taking advantage of long-term rates,†Mnuchin said on CNBC’s Squawk on the Street earlier this week.
Doesn’t he sound like a used car salesman?
