Cowardly Dems cave on $2000 stimulus checks

We knew they would. They always do. And no, it's not 'practical' politics or 'reaching across the isle" in good faith: It's cowardly caving like they always do. Bernie and a few progressives stood firm that they would not give unanimous consent to override the veto on the military budget unless checks to we the people were raised to $2000. That was repeatedly blocked by McConnell and Repugs so 41 Dems finally surrendered by voting for a motion to proceed. Only Sanders, Merkley, Warren, Van Hollen and Wyden voted against it, while Schumer and Kamala were among the 41 cowards. 

This is exactly what we the people are sick of from a Party that has abandoned us, and exactly why we didn't vote for them in droves in the November election. But did they learn from the last election? No, they did not. They keep harping that "we won" meaning the Presidency, but the main reason we got that far is many were voting against Twitler. The results in the down-ticket races gave a clear message that once again the Party refuses to acknowledge. And here we are yet again, with them capitulating to the disgusting Repugs.
