A group of Republican senators on Sunday sent a letter to President Biden suggesting they meet as part of his call for “unity” to negotiate the administration’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief package.

​”​In the spirit of bipartisanship and unity, we have developed a COVID-19 relief framework that builds on prior COVID assistance laws, all of which passed with bipartisan support​,” the lawmakers, including Sens. Susan Collins of Maine and Mitt Romney of Utah, wrote​ in the missive.

Along with Collins and Romney, the letter was signed by Senators Lisa Murkowski of Alaska, Bill Cassidy of Louisiana, Rob Portman of Ohio, Shelley Moore Capito of West Virginia, Todd Young of Indiana, Jerry Moran of Kansas, Thom Tillis of North Carolina, and Mike Rounds of South Dakota.

McConnell and Cornyn offer 10 GOP cloture votes to beg Biden and Schumer not to kill the filibuster.

McConnell and Cornyn are a couple of cucks.

They won't even sign their own letter because they are cowards.

Once again, Republicans throw their enemy a lifeline. Biden is being hammered on Twitter over the $2,000 stimulus checks that were supposed to go out immediately. All this compromise will do is leave Biden off the hook and blame Republicans when economic stagnation continues and/or people get a fraction of the $2,000 checks.

McConnell and Cornyn are cucks. They should resign their leadership positions in shame.

I suspect that Covid-19 bill is full of cute little tricks, such as make voter fraud legal, etc.

Your post was spot on.

Helping the Dems at the expense of their voters is what the GOP is all about. This is SITUATION NORMAL for them.

Someone has as much chance of success asking Biden to negotiate on anything as a one legged man has at winning an a$$ kicking contest.

History and experience is crystal clear - whenever you bargain with a democrat you hold up your part and they renege on theirs. Learn from the past.

The (Uniparty) plan here is for the Dems to drop the “throwaways” in the bill so these guys can vote for it, and for cloture, and not be portrayed as Big Donor sluts.

Fake News lives- and is nothing new.
