    We just spent *$2 trillion,* and the package was premised on substituting for income the government forced people to forego. Are we expecting lockdowns to be continuing in January? https://www.nationalreview.com/corner/coronavirus-rel-ef-adam-serwer-stimulus-fantasy/ … https://www.nationalreview.com/2020/03/the-coronavirus-relief-package-isnt-socialism/ …https://twitter.com/chrislhayes/status/1250811392342581249 …

    I've said this a ton before but remember *the second* a Democrat is elected president the entire GOP will oppose large Federal rescue and recovery spending, start demagoguing the deficit, and calling for austerity.

        State and local budget deficits from lost revenue plus a huge increase in public health expenses will absolutely be going on in January and likely well beyond it. Even if lockdowns are lifted, economy and daily movement won’t be “normal” either.

        The whole premise of this argument is that Republicans in 2021 will oppose spending any federal funds, as if there hasn't *already* been an enormous expenditure by that point.

        We are absolutely expecting the economy to be running well below potential in January.

        In all likelihood, we will relax restrictions for a period, the virus will resurge, we will go into lockdown again, and repeat until there is a vaccine. Very possible for a lockdown in January.

        The Dems will not allow Trump to have this singular victory. UBI will be the new normal as soon as they get back in power.

        I think this refers to more of how the deficit ballooned under Trump before Covid after 8 years of republicans screaming about deficits

        As much as I hate to say it, but Hayes does have a point. Watch the tables turn if the Dems win in November. It's all about the politics.
