Another manufactured crisis by Trump. Another loss for him. He accomplished absolutely nothing.

I am so ready for this crisis after crisis manufactured by the White House to be over.

It is true that there is all kinds of junk in the bill that should be removed; and the amount per head is certainly debatable. But Donald knows that $2K per head is a non-starter and in express opposition to what GOP wants. He's not really serious. That's the integrity and character of this President.

He just wants to set fire to this, sit back and enjoy the flames, and watch government hopefully shut down after Christmas, and maximize whatever message can for Congress and the Biden administration. The more he can do to get back at people who wouldn't support his coup, the more damage he can do, the better. If he can sabotage more, he will.

And if Americans happen to take collateral damage over this, so be it.. he's gonna be enjoying the weather at his Mar-a-Lag palace, and you won't.
Curious which comic book you been reading?

I'm sure those on the right were agreeing with AOC, when she was pressing for higher stimulus checks during the entire course of this pandemic, LOOL.

As far as just the stimulus checks, what I, and many others, don't agree with is that the estimated 22.1 million illegal aliens will receive $1800 each under the current bill. And if the amount is raised to $2000 then the illegal aliens will likely receive $3200 each. Illegals are citizens of other countries, let them receive stimulus checks from the taxpayers from those countries and not from us.
There's something you are completely forgetting. Regardless of who is an undocumented immigrant or not, anyone who works in this country is taxed by the government. Why would a taxpayer, even a non citizen, be exempt from receiving an emergency benefit, during a national crisis, that effects the economic stability of the entire country?
