Twitchy regular Jesse Kelly took a little heat when he predicted that Republicans will eventually give the “American Public everything Democrats want to give them” but “giving it to them slower”:

He then went on to predict that the GOP “will pass a bill to bailout the states within months” with a guarantee added for good measure:
Lol!! Buddy, the GOP will pass a bill to bailout the states within months. I guarantee it. https://t.co/cnpNYcz57B

And FWIW, Treasury Sec. Mnuchin said this morning that the bailout of the states is not going to be a bailout for the states:
Mnuchin on CNBC on aide for states: "This isn't just going to be a federal bailout of the states."
