Senate Democrat: Trump could show 'some graciousness' by backing pandemic relief package

Sen. Chris Coons (D-Del.), a close ally of President-elect Joe Biden, said on Sunday that President Trump could “show some graciousness” by backing another coronavirus relief package between now and the end of his term.

“One way that President Trump can show some graciousness in the next 73 days during the transition is to publicly support a significant pandemic relief bill,” Coons said on ABC’s “This Week.” “We’ve had record new cases all this past week, it’s past time for us to come together and deliver the relief the American people are waiting for.”

ABC’s George Stephanopoulos asked Coons whether such a bill would hurt the odds of a more comprehensive package next year, after Biden is expected to take office.

“I don’t think that passing something that is strong now undermines the opportunity to pass something broader,” Coons responded.

He'll either be golfing, planning his escape, stuff like that. He does't give one shit about the pandemic.
