It seems to me that what happened was

Before the election the Democrats were incentivized to push through a big bill to help people, and the Republicans were incentivized to push through a big bill to help them win the elections.

Pelosi killed the deal, believing Trump was a larger threat than a lack of stimulus.

But now that we're past the election the Republicans don't really have any reason to pass a large stimulus bill.

Which leads us to a tiny bill.
