Republicans push Friday deadline in congressional coronavirus relief talksOne of the White House's lead negotiators in talks with congressional Democrats on a new round of coronavirus relief and some Senate Republicans said they viewed Friday as the deadline to reach a deal or drop talks. Why are democrats obstructing potential relief? The senate GOP is offering to extend unemployment ABOVE pre-crisis levels, though not to the $600 amount. Do they know what compromise is? Democrats do not care about American families. Democrats only care about POWER, not America. Please re-elect President Trump and give him back the House and Senate. Americans are suffering. Why would the Democrats want to delay? There are so cynical.
