They pull this crap before the election and you can guarantee a Socialist in office. The working class will riot in the streets.
Well...they ARE doing it and there won't be a socialist because there won't be a socialist on the ballot.
Your GOP leaders, they still don't ****ing get it - the not showing up for work is the point, unlike you Senate idiots who show up for work and then don't do their duty: 7:46 p.m.: Wisconsin's Sen. Ron Johnson worried coronavirus relief bill would incentivize people to 'not show up to work' Wisconsin's Republican Sen. Ron Johnson has raised concerns about a coronavirus relief bill that passed the House on Saturday, saying expanding paid sick leave would exacerbate financial hardships for small business by "forcing them to pay wages they cannot afford." Johnson said he's worried not only about potential layoffs but also about “incentivizing people to not show up for work either." “People are going to have to work. People do need to recognize the fact that this is not Ebola. This is not MERS. It's not quite the seasonal flu," Johnson said. "But we have to keep things in perspective and we got to keep our economy."
LOL, with 10% GDP collapse, Trump's disapproval probably heading over 60%, good luck with this nuanced bit of messaging, Mitch.
I actually understand him on this. One of my clients owns a private auto repair shop. They are VERY worried about this bill. The owner is actually a Bernie supporter who thinks there should be full federally guaranteed sick leave, but this bill would force THEIR company to cover this. She said they would go out of business.
If only somebody somewhere had some power to enact some financial measure that could cushion this risk. Maybe somebody coming off a 3-day weekend, recharged and refreshed.
This sounds malicious, like he's saying "get it yourselves because we aren't going to help" but what he was actually saying was "If you can get it faster than the government then go do it." Instead of malice it is incompetence. He doesn't understand how supply chains work in this way. We elected someone who is incompetent that surrounded himself with government hating yes men.
Cuomo is emerging as a star in all of this. If Biden wins and serves one term (or if he loses) then we will have a hot Democratic convention between his VP and Cuomo for sure.
When you hear it in context this is exactly what he was saying, but I can't blame people wanting to **** with him.
It's amazing what leadership will do though in the era of Trump. We are so used to incompetence now that seeing someone who is competent and truth telling on tv is shocking!
