Exactly little for the needy which is the middle class. The poor need help too, but many already have some good stamps and low income housing. The wicked wealthy dipping their greedy hands in what should be for the working people. Take back what the grimy corps took and give it to the folks -and forget the next stimulus. Bunch of rotten thieves, and mrT buddies all in line for the hand outs.

I am sure you will look at it objectively.
And if you are even bringing Obama up and was upset with those actions at all you are fervently opposing Trump now on the same grounds, right?

Both “teams” need to listen to themselves.

Still better than what the Dems are serving up, but not by much.
Gore Vidal nailed it back in the 70's: Essentially, there's but one political party in the U.S.!

Thank God big-spending Republican Governor Nelson Rockefeller never made it to the Presidency as he all but bankrupted New York State during his 15 year rule.

In NV, the biggest tax increases in NV history fell to 2 Republican Governors: Sandoval and Gibbons.

Let's not forget, Trump was once a Democrat.

From January 20, 2017, to November 1, Trump piled $3.1 trillion onto the debt, amounting to a 16% increase. That's significantly less than the $4.3 trillion President Barack Obama added from January 2009 to November 1, 2011, but far more than the $1.1 trillion Bush added in a similar period and the $794 billion Clinton did in 1,016 days as president.

There is a key distinction separating the circumstances behind Trump and Obama's debt figures. Trump inherited an economy undergoing its longest sustained expansion. Obama, on the other hand, entered the White House as the nation veered into a recession that sparked massive stimulus spending and a bailout of the auto industry.
This article is from Nov 2019. Trump has now blown by Obama. Yayyy!!! Way to go to Trumper Party!! Pile on the debt!!!!

Trump wants money to help all Americans. How much money will it take for Biden and the Pandercrats to appease the BLM people with reparations and lets not forget the illegal aliens that are just dying to vote Democrat.. They need amnesty, welfare and FREE health insurance that all the dem candidates pledged for them. I wonder if Joe was in the race during the debates if he would have raised his hand when asked about free health care for illegal aliens?



What a mess. Well it has been a nice run America.
Thank you, Democrats cant win so they want to destroy this country.

This is insane!! What Republican in their right mind would want to further plunge our country deeper into debt, all the while the Administration is exclaiming "WE'RE OPEN!! OPEN NOW!!!".

I'm sick of this RINO in the White House. Where's the Tea Party faithful of just a few years ago? Where's your outrage now? Get this clown out of office. Put a real Conservative on the ticket and dump Trump 'the King of Debt'.
Yeah you would raher have the relief bill the democrats want https://www.cnbc.com/2020/05/12/coro...lief-bill.html if you want insanity vote democrat
