President Donald Trump Tuesday said he was the person who canceled the deal to pass coronavirus legislation in excess of $2 trillion after House Speaker Nancy Pelosi included "a lot of things" that had nothing to do with people who have been put out of work because of closures over the spreading coronavirus epidemic.
"I canceled the deal," he said in a Fox News virtual town hall. "I said, 'I'm not going to send that deal.' Nancy Pelosi came and put a lot of things in the deal that had nothing to do with the workers, that has to do with an agenda they've been trying to get passed for ten years."
Trump said he told Vice President Mike Pence and several other key Republicans that there was "no way" he would sign the deal.
"We almost had a deal the day before," said Trump about an agreement between the Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
"It was really a good, solid deal," said Trump. "All (of a) sudden they start throwing all the little green new deal stuff in. The board rooms, what they look like. 'We want clean energy, we want all this stuff. Let's stop drilling oil.' They had things that were terrible. Windmills all over the place, all sorts of credits for windmills. To kill the breeze and ruin the real estate, right? A lot of problems."

Well,Well......there must be recourse
Pelosi must hang
White House truly needs to fuze “playback” into all press conferences!
Seriously, media playback should be universally done going forward. AMD it should be done without known any set schedule, so the media demons have no clue when it will be used.
More conservative outlets will play it all through, including left wing media and press reactions!
Their lies will be caught, and blatantly unprepared and red handed.
Yep.
5.56mm
President Trump should rip it up right in front of Pelosi, like she did his State of the Union speech.
LOL.....all 1000 plus Pages, NO Trump has more class than that.
This happened during the 2008 panic. There were several market dives based on impending government responses. IIRC there were some rallies when legislation didnt pass.
IMHO that is a VERY important thing to do.
“for Democrat special interest groups.”
THAT is what a fair media would be saying.
i am very confused.
Absolutely not
About as treasonous as Hatch, Lee and Reid...
Nancy’s as stupid as the cretins that vote for her, and that’s some real industrial strength stupid.
Pelosi, and many of the dims, and some of the pubs really, are obsolete.
Well hell..S.F. is a petri dish waiting to overflow with COVID-19
If it goes up 2100 during the middle of the virus fear it shows the market will be fine once everything is lifted.
People will be crapping in the streets!..................................oh, wait, they already do that....................
She can use it for toilet paper. I hope she gets paper cuts on her ass.
“There hasnt been a deal between McConnell and Schumer for Trump to cancel, much less than between the House and Senate.”
Hmmm...was he talking about the one yesterday? He told the leaders “no?”
Good!
Oh, he understands it.
