What's next: Now that the bill has passed the House with Republican votes, it will put Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell in a tough position of having to decide whether to bring the provision to the floor in the Senate as a standalone bill.

uh-oh. so still not happening but an effort was made ^^

This shit is all theater, Mitch the bitch won't even bring it to the floor, the only way you'll see a possibility of it is if he loses the senate by losing the Georgia run offs and that's a very small chance of happening.

This is pretty much the prelude to what a Biden administration will look like, house passes something people want, Mitch laughs gives finger, media blames democrats and Biden

Essentially, yes. Trump already signed the bill with $600 stimulus checks and all the other bloat; this is a separate measure to increase the amounts of those stimulus checks.

Even if it was brought up to a vote in the Senate, Republicans still would not pass it. This is not just on Mitch. If the Republicans wanted this to happen they would be saying it vocally to put heat on Mitch.

Mitch wouldn't do this unless his colleagues were also opposed to the bill. It doesn't fall on him exclusively.

EDIT: Post 36 beat me to it.

It's easy to make a public statement if you know you don't have to follow through. They can use Mitch as the fall guy.

Unfortunately, being traitors doesnt keep their voter base from wanting them. In fact, nowadays that makes them want to vote for them even more. In spite of how self destructive and stupid that is.
