I’m a fan of Nancy Pelosi and I think she does a very good job as Speaker, so this is in no way a rant against her. After the House passed its three trillion or however much second stimulus package, it was pretty clear the GOP Senate wouldn’t agree to it. So while we constantly heard about talks between the Speaker and Mnuchin, the differences, yada yada ad nauseam, nothing was accomplished.
As the election neared we began to hear some talk of some Dem members in potentially tough races urging something get passed. And now we’ve lost several seats.
A missed opportunity?
