Senate Republicans, White House seek to reduce weekly unemployment benefit from $600 to $200

6. Democrats better hope not

If the Democrats give them liability coverage and also reduced unemployment coverage that is going to hurt. The leadership may think that Fat Donnie is bad enough that they can get away with fully buckling in one provision and partially buckling in the other. At the very least if this is what we get and the Democrats win back the Presidency and the Senate we should push for leadership changes that puts people in power that know how to play hardball when it comes to negotiations. I am real tired of hearing the excuse of 'we tried but this was all we could get'.
