Guys, I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but the stimulus is doomed. Doomed!

When President Biden signed the bill, he forgot to hold it up to the camera and waive it back and forth for an entire minute to prove that, yes, he actually did sign it.

Don't you know there's no legal effect to the bill unless a President does that!

or produce a three-inch-high, indecipherable signature that looks like The Former Guy's polygraph results.

Never mind that most people will get direct deposit, so there won't be any checks. How could Biden be so stupid?

The Foxsuckers will seize on it, and Toker Carlson and Sean Insanity will now speculate that the measure isn't law because there is no proof that Biden REALLY signed it.
