I did not think the $600 was going over well. It will be hard to override this veto if he does it.

He threatened to veto the Defense bill and hasn’t yet. Unless he does then it becomes law on Thursday.

I don’t see giving 2 grand to everyone.

I’m a retiree whose income has not been affected. People like me need nothing.

Workers need more than 600 bucks, many need nothing.

Anyway, more power to Trump, hope he gets his point past the media.

Trump is G-E-N-I-U-S!
Not saying I agree with the handouts. But this is brilliant messaging to much of fly-over America.
Numbers-wise let’s say the delta from $600 to $2,000 is $1,400. So now the cost is $280 Billion. Well, it had been $120 Billion.
I mean check my math. And feel free to share your comments.

Is that his parting shot? More socialism on top of all this Covid tyranny? He ought to help make it harder to use the treasury as a piggy bank.

Foreign Aid and handouts to the Kennedy Arts etc. should all be stripped of this bill period........so much ‘political fluff’ having nothing to do with covid should have never been signed!

They will override his veto AND give all of this stinking money to foreign countries instead of Americans in real need!! THEN these bastards expect us to vote for these 2 RINO senators from GA. good luck with that!!! MOST of us don’t give a shit about electing 2 more RINOS to the senate!!

Free ! Free! Free just means let the kids pay for it
Where’s the commercial or video showing a toddler happily playing suddenly being demanded to pay its thousands of dollars share of the national debt ? When the toddler breaks into screaming” HOW COULD THEY DO THIS TO ME ???” in tears ? posted this in my website
http://www.theusmat.com/index.htm

If this fraudulent election wasn’t going on Trump should vetoed this. NOW I HOPE HE EXPLAINS AND BLAMES THAT SHAKEDOWN FORCING ITS PASSAGE.

That democrat controlled house 5000 or more page budget blaster hasn’t been examined but I bet there is Bailouts for sanctuary states and cities along with a mountain of other appropriations going for give-a-way projects

Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Republicans in the Senate so quickly forget. Right now they would be down 8 seats without my backing them in the last Election. RINO John Thune, “Mitch’s boy”, should just let it play out. South Dakota doesn’t like weakness. He will be primaried in 2022, political career over!!!
