Trump did one good thing

[Legends303]

Giving every American 1000 dollars and the fed giving zero interest rates loans to small businesses. Even agreeing to Nancy Pelosi’s bill out of the house. Even though the rest of the response was botched. I mean I will be afraid if his approval rating starts to go up after this.

1. How will that $1000 be distributed?

Check in the mail? A gift card in mail? Are there any group of people excluded from the cash?
Is that $1000 taxable?

3. A fat guy with a white beard and a huge bag of money.

6. Wearing a red jump suit in a reindeer wagon byany chance?

Should I put out cookies and milk for him, otherwise he might skip my house.

2. Trump didn't do shit except sign the bill.

He fucked up every single thing he touched.

9. Thank YOU!

18. +1

4. I always read profiles. n/t

10. Me too.

5. Couple of things:

1. Trump is only NOW starting to do a (minimally) responsible job as President
2. This all isn't over by a long shot and it's not going to be over in April either

Let's make sure that people just don't decide that we need to pin a medal on him once this thing blows over (he will expect everybody to kiss his *ss) because he sure as hell won't ever deserve it. And there shouldn't be any way for him to spin dry his inaction and other blunders.

7. The $1,000.00,...

.... is a gift card redeemable only at tRump luxury restaurants, tRump luxury hotels, or tRump luxury golf courses.

It is important we all do our part to get the economy going before November 2020.

8. It WON'T be for everyone

I don't believe for a second that it won't be means tested.

[ansible]

16. It's already for US citizens only, lots of noncitizens won't get anything

[shanti]

19. I'm referring to US citizens

It won't be for all of us.

[Shrike47]

12. No bill with cash to people has been passed or signed. The bill he signed pumps up unemployment,

food stamps, gives some people two weeks paid sick leave, says free Coronavirus tests (not treatment). They are still negotiating money for big business (lots and lots of bailout) and individuals (a pittance, if anything.) It’s all really designed to funnel money to big donors, not to you.

[Shrike47]

13. Trump hasn't given anybody anything, nor will he. Congress may throw a little $ to us, later.

[malaise]

14. I'll agree when he has a catastrophic stroke

or heart attack. Until then I'm on pause.

[drray23]

15. not every american. the headlines I thought said many americans

meaning there are probably enough loopholes that a fair number of us will end up with little or nothing.

[tazkcmo]

17. Trump did shit.

He hasn't given us a damn thing but headaches. The Democratic majority in the House rightly initiated this much needed financial aide that the Republican controlled Senate stalls, objects, amends and waters down the bill.

Fuck Trump.

[wishstar]

20. I'll never forget Warren Buffett saying his company saves $30 billion/yr from Trump/Repub tax cut

Now Trump want to throw out billions of our tax money to bail out oil industry, cruise industry etc, making the $!000 handouts laughable

[HotTeaBag]

21. In theory the $1000 is good, but honestly, how long will $1000 last?

and a great deal of his base will very quickly become dependent on a government that will go out of it's way to make sure Wall Street and large corporations make it through but will do very little for them.

The only thing they will notice (after a couple of weeks of chest thumping fake 'Rugged Individualism') is that they can't feed themselves and they will turn on Dear Leader - $1000 will be just a drop in a quite empty bucket eight weeks from now.

Socialism will begin looking pretty good then.

22. It will miraculously disappear, it's tRump after all

[doc03]

23. Remember not one damn Republican voted for

Obama's Stimulus. This may be Trump's savior.
