with the likely outcomes.

"President Trump today issued another three Executive Tantrums, saying he wants payroll taxes cut, unemployment benefits extended, and student loans suspended, and the credit for it all. Government lawyers will now take a look to see if they are in any way feasible, and then start talking to congressional members and law drafters, who have the real expertise in law and regulation setting, and those in all 50 states, to work out if there's any chance Trump could get his wishes. They acknowledged that this was bound to take time, and Trump would have lost interest by then and thrown tantrums about different topics."
