Pelosi should do the small Covid relief deal with McConnell now, then Biden should pull every executive lever he has in February, and then you sit down to talk with Republicans about a deal featuring tax cuts and some of Biden’s spending programs and lifting the debt ceiling. — PolitiTweet.org

Agree with everyone from @MattBruenig to @jasonfurman that $1 spent on debt relief is a poor use of $1 compared to tons of other idea. But the way the institutions and economics work, I don’t see any reason to believe there’s an actual tradeoff. — PolitiTweet.org

I think student debt relief is directly comparable to Trump’s farm giveaways — they did not “make sense” as policy and they certainly weren’t efficient or well-targeted, but they didn’t hurt anyone and the farmers liked the money. — PolitiTweet.org
