Sounds like a distinct possibility! We’ll have to wait to see what happens.

I think it’s more than a possibility but we shall see indeed. Biden specifically asked for this aid. But Biden wants it all jumbled up in a big package - for different reasons at first, but now in part because it gives him some “cover”. Johnson took away that cover. He says we’ll consider all of it but each on its own up and down vote. This is politics and there is a strategy, I think, to enlarge the gulf inside the Dem party. It was Biden’s mistake and Johnson is exploiting it. Now with far left protesters on the streets, Michigan in play for Trump, and Johnson is doing his bit for the party. Heck even Trump thinks NY can be won (though that’s probably a lot of bravado but Biden boxed himself into this political issue). Again Biden asked for this aid. Schumer wants this aid. Johnson is forcing them to take it, or flip flop. Neither is a good option for them.

And this aid is just one wedge issue. Immigration is a much bigger wedge issue. We’ll see how Johnson handles it. The Senate is trying to ram its own version through hopefully Johnson can bury that and forcefully put his own view on the table. All to force the Democrats to own their mistakes. The Senate GOP and maybe a few in the House seem hell bent on bailing the Democrats out of their messes. It’s political lunacy. If I’m right about Johnson he’s playing this exactly right. If only the party will back him.
