@VolbeckWasRight I think most everyone would agree that these are horrible times and every little helps. But this negotiation, to me, always seemed doomed because D set a very high price. And Rs responded with, you have to take our much lower price, plus Ds to provide at least 2/3 of the votes. — PolitiTweet.org

@VolbeckWasRight I agree the deal was never that close. But, if there was a $1.5 trillion “deal”, how many Senate Rs would’ve voted for it? McConnell faced a revolt on his late July $1tr proposal. I’ve always been skeptical there was ever a $1.5tr “deal” (with escalators heading to $2tr). — PolitiTweet.org

Today's Covid relief talks breakdown really happened in late July, when conservatives abandoned Trump. The idea that McConnell would agree to a $1.5-$2tr bill, after running away from his $1tr offer in July, was naive at best. Here's my July 29 piece: https://t.co/wd8u9Mgvx5 — PolitiTweet.org
