President-elect Joe Biden on Saturday pressed President Trump to immediately sign a COVID-19 relief bill that is stuck in limbo, blasting what he deemed Trump's "abdication of responsibility."
Biden noted that the bill contains provisions for small businesses and extended unemployment benefits, as well as stimulus checks, and could help struggling families as they come up against the pandemic's economic fallout during the holiday season.
"It is the day after Christmas, and millions of families don't know if they'll be able to make ends meet because of President Donald Trump's refusal to sign an economic relief bill approved by Congress with an overwhelming and bipartisan majority," Biden said in a statement. "This abdication of responsibility has devastating consequences."

"It is the day after Christmas, and millions of families don't know if they'll be able to make ends meet because of President Donald Trump's refusal to sign an economic relief bill... Gee, and here I thought it was because of all those Dem Guvs shutting down their states, closing businesses and throwing workers out on the street...

“be able to make ends meet”
The $600 isn’t going to bring those two ends together. What these people really want is for the government to completely support the “poor.” I.E., communism.

Hey, Joe Bite Me, how is giving $730 billion in pork to foreign countries and domestic enemies helping families, when your $600 payment to families adds up to $170 billion?
Wish we all got those kick-back millions like YOU got, big guy, you and your drug-addled perv son.

“President-elect Joe Biden on Saturday pressed President Trump...”
It’s hard for me to imagine “President-Elect” Joe Biden successfully ‘pressing’ President Trump or really anyone else on anything. I know he says he ready to do pushups or something and in high school would have beat the snot out of Trump, but now?
