After a 3 day weekend & 5 days of public statements about all the things they would do to help, McConnell's Senate floated a bill that had few (if any) of the protections that were promised.

The protections they did include had no guarantees, could be overridden by the executive branch, and in some cases didn't require any auditing, transparency, or allow oversight until *after* the 2020 election.

Democrats, predictably, killed the bill as expected, giving the GOP an avenue to shift blame and rewrite history by claiming the Democrats are playing politics and obstructing solutions while people are dying.

In the 9 days that have elapsed while the Senate took their three-day weekend and created a bill they knew wouldn't pass, U.S. Covid-19 cases grew from 2,830 to over 35,000, and U.S. deaths grew from 41 to 419.

To be clear, the problem literally got ten times worse in 9 days, while the Senate GOP set about the vital and difficult work of - making Democrats look bad.
