Maybe, she would go down to $500, or maybe she would accept $600 till November, but I lean toward no. Mitch has come up a bit from first throwing out the ridiculously low $200 a week offer. Will he (and Trump) go up to $600? Maybe if...

We give him some BS that he wants, like more money for border security or the military, or some type of tax credits. I say go for it to get the $600. We can always reverse it in January if Biden wins.

My 2 cents the 600 (or 500) will be extended peacebuzzard Jul 2020 #5

The 600 will get extended but with a huge pile of corrupt bullshit added. Voltaire2 Jul 2020 #6
