And so Rome burns while Nero fiddles...with a blue bird app on his phone.

I think Jerome Powell put it best: this lack of stimulus is going to have "economically tragic consequences."

He goes by Jay Powell.  And he's right, BTW.  Without an additional stimulus, there will be seriously negative consequences.  But Trump and the Repubs won't sign a bill that is loaded with Democratic pork.  And that's that.

Oh and, uh...COVID.
