There's not a lot of optimism for a stimulus 2 anytime soon. The McConnell and Pelosi bills are 500B - 2200B or approx 1700B apart.
I'm thinking Pelosi overplayed her hand and should have gone with Trump's 1700B / 1800B proposal. No guarantee that it would have passed in Sep/Oct but at least back then it would have been Pelosi + Trump vs McConnell.
Right now, I don't see why McConnell would agree to anything close to Pelosi's ask.
