if your dog runs up to me while i'm walking on a public sidewalk, grabs my handbag, and destroys my expensive purse, you owe me a replacement or cash as compensation for your pet's actions so i can buy another. after you compensate me, you don't also get to tell me what i can do with the money you paid me or the purse replacement.
What if a wild dog runs up and destroys your expensive purse? Does he still have to pay for it?

Complaining about the corporation's getting a ballet out but you seem to forget that they hire a lot of people too. And if they fall many more people will be on the unemployment line and then you will be bitching about Trump not doing enough to save their jobs. But it was okay when Obama did it back in 2008

"I wouldn't say (business is) thriving when you decide to close down your hotels and your businesses," he said. "It's hurting me and it's hurting Hilton and it's hurting all of the great hotel chains all over the world." Sounds like a good reason to spend a trillion dollars (not). In the last bailout Obama made the auto industry and most banks whole. The people were left with under water mortgages and lowered wages while the rich got richer and everyone else stagnated. Now that this correction has removed all the bull market stock gains from peoples retirement accounts, will they ever wake up and smell the coffee? Not likely. The US is a country for the rich, by the rich and of the rich. The rest of us suckers can just lump it. At least Pelosi is trying to give a few crumbs to the masses. Trump has given nothing to the masses but hot air. But half the country thinks his far*ts smell like perfume.
Thank goodness the Dems held this up! It means billions more for working Americans and oversight on the handouts to industry. It is much, much improved over the bill that was written by DC lobbyists.
that's great to hear, now there won't be any whimpering about it from the Democrats.

Did you even read or retain what I wrote? I never said it was OK when Obama did it. I said it would be the same outcome as when Obama did it.
Just out of curiosity, name some things except for free BS that Trump has done to benefit us? I believe we have different interpretations of all the words you have used in your post. Leadership? None. Lucky? yes, but has nothing to do with Trump. Benefits? Well that's my question. What Benefits?
Stock market had the best day it's had since 1933, making ol' bob a lucky and happy guy.. It's TRUMP, still MAGA.... for you and I...
I understand you get noticed more with your democrat love. because you are in the vast minority. Say stupid things and people react, sound somewhat normal and no one notices..

Is that what this is about? You support Trump's socialist spending spree of $2 trillion so he would not be criticized......oh my....
Correction, Trump admin is now asking for a total of $6 trillion.
