President Donald Trump got his wish: The direct payment checks that many Americans will soon receive as part of the government’s COVID-19 relief package will bear Trump’s name on them.
Interesting but I was thinking something along the same lines as that.
As the Post notes, it was Sens. Mitt Romney (R-UT) and Josh Hawley (R-MO) who came up with the idea, not Trump.
Hawley, of course, was more than willing to nest his face in Rump’s scrotum but if Romney was involved, I can’t imagine he floated the idea with the intent that it was going to get Rump praise. Probably more to highlight the narcissism.
Beg to differ- a fraction of the people receiving these checks are dim-witted enough to believe that the money is coming from him. Not necessarily his personal funds, but that he “got it” for them from the evil “government”. Those are likely votes for him.
Every member of Congress recommending sacrificing citizens to the disease, and anyone else doing the same, should first have to do two things. Spend a full shift, covered head to toe in PPE, in a hospital ICU unit. Second, sit in a room with several families telling their stories of losing a loved one to the disease.
If they then go out and still say commerce is more important than lives there is no hope for them.
There are no words for how low this piece of garbage will stoop. A lot of those checks will go to families whose loved ones died because of his behavior and attempt to minimize this illness. My hope is that he will end up like Robin Vos, the speaker of the assembly in Wisconsin, who had his faced rubbed in it last week. He made a complete jackass out of himself by dressing up like a health care provider and claiming it was safe to go to vote because he was sure that he had already won the Supreme Court seat for his cast of deplorables. He was wrong and the Dems now have a wonderful visual of the leader of the most craven Republicans.
