MSNBC’s Haake on Coronavirus Bill: Dems Pushing for Things that Are ‘Arguably Not a Current Crisis’

RUHLE Speaker Pelosi just ░░░░░░░░ up Garrett Haake let ░░░░░░░░ go back to you ░░░░░░░░ us inside the politics ░░░░░░░░ How about this what ░░░░░░░░ the point of that ░░░░░░░░ Well this is an ░░░░░░░░ for Democrats to show ░░░░░░░░ their priorities are in ░░░░░░░░ crisis given the absence ░░░░░░░░ a compromise bill in ░░░░░░░░ Senate Pelosi said a ░░░░░░░░ of days ago that ░░░░░░░░ House would offer its ░░░░░░░░ alternative when she wasn ░░░░░░░░ satisfied with what was ░░░░░░░░ discussed on the Senate ░░░░░░░░ There you saw her ░░░░░░░░ some of it out ░░░░░░░░ House is not in ░░░░░░░░ right now The House ░░░░░░░░ not vote on this ░░░░░░░░ tomorrow or probably the ░░░░░░░░ day or the next ░░░░░░░░ even if they wanted ░░░░░░░░ And I think what ░░░░░░░░ re seeing here is ░░░░░░░░ believe they have leverage ░░░░░░░░ Republicans don t even ░░░░░░░░ 50 votes in the ░░░░░░░░ where they are in ░░░░░░░░ majority right now because ░░░░░░░░ of their members are ░░░░░░░░ They are trying to ░░░░░░░░ their way through a ░░░░░░░░ and Democrats believe they ░░░░░░░░ some political leverage here ░░░░░░░░ control the response here ░░░░░░░░ the way they would ░░░░░░░░ to see it performed ░░░░░░░░ to get some of ░░░░░░░░ priorities across the finish ░░░░░░░░ There is a political ░░░░░░░░ of overreaching here and ░░░░░░░░ think that s what ░░░░░░░░ re seeing play out ░░░░░░░░ the Senate floor where ░░░░░░░░ are being criticized for ░░░░░░░░ like including cancellation of ░░░░░░░░ debt which you could ░░░░░░░░ is not a part ░░░░░░░░ the Coronavirus crisis Things ░░░░░░░░ you heard the Speaker ░░░░░░░░ about the election security ░░░░░░░░ vote by mail which ░░░░░░░░ a very interesting issue ░░░░░░░░ all of us who ░░░░░░░░ been covering the connection ░░░░░░░░ the virus and electoral ░░░░░░░░ that are arguably not ░░░░░░░░ current crisis in March ░░░░░░░░ I think this is ░░░░░░░░ walk that the the ░░░░░░░░ the Democrats are going ░░░░░░░░ be walking here is ░░░░░░░░ they press their political ░░░░░░░░ as they see it ░░░░░░░░ get the most favorable ░░░░░░░░ possible out of a ░░░░░░░░ bill or do they ░░░░░░░░ too far and risk ░░░░░░░░ blamed by the public ░░░░░░░░ slowing down a bill ░░░░░░░░ is widely agreed to ░░░░░░░░ urgently needed out in ░░░░░░░░ rest of the country?”
