Quick question about RW argle-bargle point

It looks like they're trying to hold a halo above their heads by claiming the Democrats are attempting to pile a lot of Green New Deal stuff into a relief package.

Is it pure Base Buzzword Bingo, or are there some provisions where if you look at them sideways while squinting real hard and clapping your hands even harder that you could get enough GND to have a pebble of factoid in that mountain of BS?

by definition, their proposal was a partisan republican wishlist.

so it *even if* their assertion was 100% true that the democratic response was partisan, they only have themselves to blame for starting off with a completely partisan proposal.


as for the assertion that our response is partisan, well, that's their standard response to anythings reasonable or useful or helpful for america. anything that prevents republicans from grifting or cheating or paying off their corporate donors is considered a partisan democratic concept.
