Is there likely to be another coronavirus stimulus package given how bad unemployment is?
I think it's inevitable that there will be. But Democrats and Republicans are really far apart on when and what it would include. Really needs money for States which otherwise have to balance their budgets and will have to do a lot of layoffs. Last thing you want at this point. We did it in 2009. It would be good not to do it again.
Are we almost at the end of the fight over President Trump's tax returns?
Yes, we are. It's before the Supreme Court this week. A close call, but if they do allow for the release, it could be a major moment in the 2020 campaign.
Kamala Harris for Vice President? What would she bring to Joe Biden's campaign?
Obviously, she's a tough debater. That's important in a V.P. candidate. She's a woman, critical for Democrats to increase their advantage with women voters over Trump in 2020. And she brings diversity, which would help with get out the vote efforts certainly, in the 2020 election. So, she does bring a lot and she is among the frontrunners.
