Why should the people and taxpayers of America be bailing out poorly run states (like Illinois, as example) and cities, in all cases Democrat run and managed, when most of the other states are not looking for bailout help? I am open to discussing anything, but just asking?

Blame the Democrats for any lateness in your Enhanced Unemployment Insurance. I wanted the money to be paid directly, they insisted it be paid by states for distribution. I told them this would happen, especially with many states which have old computers.

There has never been, in the history of our Country, a more vicious or hostile Lamestream Media than there is right now, even in the midst of a National Emergency, the Invisible Enemy!

You could ask the same about all the poorly run corporations we're bailing out.
Except that in many of those cases, they were in business and surviving until governments took their customers away from them.

WTF is that?
People want to see him instilling hope and getting the economy reopened. The latest tweets have not been helpful.
***Our State Rep had a town hall call last Friday with people administering this...they all stated Pa was just not set up to distribute the funds and it has taken this long to get it ready. I understand they now are ready and things should be pushed out this week. Also they have a we site you can reach to get phone numbers for inquiry
For example, last night he retweeted this guy:
John Cardillo
@johncardillo
Three failed coup attempts:
1 - Russia Collusion hoax during campaign
2 - Mueller’s sham
3 - Illegitimate impeachment
Do you really think these lunatics wouldn’t inflate the mortality rates by underreporting the infection rates in an attempt to steal the election?
Okay, fair enough. It seems to indicate that Trump believes Democrat officials are screwing with the stats. So if he does why is he sticking with Birx’ stats driven plan for reopening, which will never get us there?
He’s confusing people.
And states were getting by until the economy crashed and their tax revenue predictions went out the window. What is going to happen in November if states are forced to open schools in the fall with far fewer teaches than they need but can't afford to hire because of budget cuts? What about fewer police and fire for the same reason? Slashes to state services in all areas and all levels because their tax revenue is way down and Trump and McConnell refused to provide federal assistance? What kind of hay do you think the Democrats will make from that? And how many Senate and House seats do you think it will cost Republicans?
especially with many states which have old computers.”
Does Trump still not get it? They are slow walking it to drag it out as much as possible and to inflict as much pain as possible. The rats know Trump gets blamed not “old computers”.
We better hope Biden stays in because Trump will lose to any decent rat candidate at this point.
My state shut down all "non-essential" businesses. The "non-essential" businesses didn't shut down the state.
The good news is that the most fouled-up states are almost all deep “blue” states anyway. With the exception of Ohio and Pennsylvania, the states where the COVID-19 response has been most poorly managed are heavily Democratic states.
When he was instilling hope and talking about the opening of the economy, did you remember how the media reacted?
Off topic but:
Taylor Popielarz @TaylorPopielarz
An updated schedule from the White House says today’s #coronavirus briefing has been canceled.
Instead, a 4pm meeting @realDonaldTrump is set to have “with industry executives on #COVID19 response” will be covered by the White House press pool.

Interesting. Force the Press to cover him actually doing something to move us forward instead of the Punch and Judy Show. Smart move.
****Well said President Trump.
“Disinfectant” for the uneducated, “chemotherapy” for the educated.
Exactly. He just doesn’t get it. He needs to follow Trey Gowdy’s advice from yesterday.
