| Subject: Excellent: Trump on House Dems' coronavirus relief bill: 'No way I’m signing that deal' with 'Green New Deal stuff' Tue Mar 24, 2020 8:55 pm | |
| President Trump said Tuesday that he would not support an emergency coronavirus response bill pitched by House Democrats earlier this week. “Nancy Pelosi came and put a lot of things in the deal that had nothing to do with workers -- that had to do with an agenda that they have been trying to get passed for 10 years,” Trump told Fox News in a special “Virtual Town Hall.” “I came in, I told Mike [Pence], I told a lot of people, 'There is no way I am signing that deal," the president added. Trump said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., and Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., had almost reached an agreement on the response bill over the weekend before Democrats suddenly injected the “Green New Deal” into the mix. "[The Democrats said] 'We want green energy, let’s stop drilling oil' -- they had things in there that were terrible," Trump said. "Windmills all over the place and all sorts of credits for windmills -- they kill the birds and ruin the real estate. A lot of problems.”
