There has to be consequences for shutting an economy down, otherwise these clowns will do it repeatedly.
What do we get in return?
But especially Calif.
That state has been mis-run for ever...
The bridge made with Chinese iron..and labor. Gone to sheet.
The bullet train to nowhere...costing trillions of $$$$....Those people in "charge" who thought that was a good idea...ought to be strung up.
Illegal's running rampant....doing crimes..and grafting on the system. Total BS...
I saw it coming...and left that state.
Why only a trillion? Why not a QUADRILLION!?!
Hey emperor norton newsom....ca is the fifth largest economy in the world...no?
Pay your highly taxed citizens first! No deal for your Western socialist states.
Those three states have been virtually independent of the federal government in their policies. Let them be independent of our money too.
I thought California was saying they were going to become an independent country? Why should they get anything from the rest of us?
to bail out decades of bad policy decisions
nope
Yeah, so they can give LOTS OF IT to illegal criminal invaders so they can sit on their fat illiterate rear ends for the rest of their grifter lives, and to pay for the postage for the mail-in fraudulent voting. Tell them to take a short dive into the deep Pacific, great whites and all.
Like a teenager storming out of the house saying I’m going to live on my own and crawling back a few days later begging to come back.
Oh, hell no! Good luck with that one! Why should we send them $1 trillion, in part due to governor Bi-Karen’s (OR) refusal to start opening up until July 6?
Ah, no.
No money ever to sanctuary cities or states. Never.
Why not a gazillion?
NO
We are done spending money on you July 27th...
to bail out decades of bad policy decisions
nope
Right...there tax base is gone for a long time..
State of Washington has a budget reserve of $3 Billion per OFM manager on April 3rd, 2020.
FU Jay Inslee
So these confederate POS rebel states collectively enslave their citizens,hold the middle finger to Trump while demanding money. It takes a special POS to act like this.
