Speaking today with our Jake Sherman and Anna Palmer, White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows said he is not optimistic about reaching a new coronavirus relief deal before the end of September

"It's really been Speaker Pelosi really driving this train as a conductor more so than really anybody," Meadows said. "And I think privately she says she wants a deal and publicly she says she wants a deal, but when it comes to dealing with Republicans and the administration, we haven't seen a lot of action."

Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill told POLITICO that a member of Meadows' staff texted the speaker's staff to confirm they had the correct number for the chief of staff, but did not mention resuming talks. Meadows also said he would call Pelosi during an interview on ABC News on Sunday, but Hammill said he never did.

"Democrats have compromised in these negotiations," Hammill said in a statement to POLITICO. "We offered to come down $1 trillion if the White House would come up $1 trillion. We welcome the White House back to the negotiating table but they must meet us halfway."a "skinny" coronavirus relief bill earlier this month that could be tacked onto a continuing resolution to keep the government funded beyond the end of next month.

Senate Democrats, for their part, have placed blame on Republicans for being unwilling to negotiate a comprehensive coronavirus relief package. Sen. Tim Kaine Republicans would turn a more amenable leaf after the Republican National Convention ends this week. "It was clear the White House, for some reason, they wanted to go into their convention blaming Democrats," Kaine said last week.

By design. Angry, desperate, hungry people riot and therefore need a 'law and order president.' Just in time for November.

Meadows has never closed a deal on anything.

Member of white supremacist BoogalooBoys shot multiple protesters in Kenosha. Although he had AR15 he was not confronted by police or SWAT but ignored & allowed to walk out of area. KenoshaPolice shoot unarmed Black men but see armed white men as allies.

Well they are already speaking in the past tense related to COVID so...

Kinda seems like Trump can't make a deal.
