Let me see if I can help end this roadblock. $650B GOP proposal + $2.2T Dem


proposal = $2.85T/2 = $1.425T or roughly $1.5T. Trump right again! :-)

As usual John Thune is talking sense (as are Braun and Blount):

Senate Majority Whip John Thune (R-S.D.) warned Wednesday that the bigger the price tag for any relief package, the more difficult it would be to get Senate Republicans on board.

“If the number gets too high, anything that got passed in the Senate will be passed mostly with Democrat votes and a handful of Republicans so it’s gonna have to stay within a realistic range if we want to maximize, optimize the number of Republican senators that will vote for it,” Thune said.
