Ben Cardin: It’s Unthinkable that Trump Would Actually Veto Covid Relief Bill

EXCERPT:

CARDIN: "Look, we know that President Trump does not act the way that we would expect a president to act, so certainly we’re concerned about this. But it’s unthinkable that he would not sign this bill into law. It’s not only the Covid relief package, which is desperately needed by the people of this nation, by our small businesses, the distribution of the vaccines to end this Covid-19 crisis, but also the appropriations for the entire government and so many critically important bills are part of this package, so it’s unthinkable that he would actually veto it. The point he’s raising about additional checks, direct payment checks, that was an issue with the Republicans. Obviously we wanted the package to be larger than it was, but that was a compromise reached during the system. Why the President didn’t raise that during negotiations is beyond me."
