It's official. The GOP , especially Kevin McCarthy, has just backstabbed President Trump.

This is the GOPE’s attempt to force Trump to pass the pork-laden $600 package.

Who is surprised by Weak Kneed McCarthy.
They stuffed this bill with majority of Pork.
Much of our money sent to other countries.
CUT the pork. Give Americans the money.

And everyone else who has been victimized by this Virus economically. They have no clue how bad the situation on the ground really is. Soon likely more than half of the US population could end up homeless and starving. Screw politics, this is flat out denying aid to US Citizens.

Kevin McCarthy's last tweet from yesterday seems to support President Trump. I'll wait to see his reasoning; maybe DNC was sneaking in idiocy.

All the s--t for foreign aid and Kennedy Center is still in the bill.

I don't want $2,000 because that tells me the gov't equates me, a U.S. citizen, on par with 3rd worlders.

McCarthy really really really wants to give Pakistan money for gender studies and a billion dollars to the Smithsonian

There’s more to be done than cutting $600 and pasting $2000 into this beast. Make the $2000 contingent on eliminating tons of pork.

I see this as a good move by McCarthy. No Unanimous Consent votes for a 5,000 page boondoggle that no one has read. The $2000 check demand is just an opening gambit. There are dozens of other unacceptable items in the bill. President Trump wants a clean bill. The Dims and GOPe want a Christmas tree.

I have emailed my representative and senators to request they back trump on the election and his veto. Yes, it will probably hit deaf ears, but I think a barrage of emails might have some effect. Success may come down to just one or two votes.

It’s called a “moral hazard” to just give money away to regular Americans. For some economic reason though, giving it to foreign countries like Pakistan and Ukraine and Egypt, and favored industries, and 40 million for the Lincoln Center is fine. Oh and giving a triple payment to illegal aliens is fine also.

Why don’t they do a clean bill that is one page? Oh right, because they don’t want to actually do it.
