Trump needs to veto the bill. Biden, Pelosi et al are in a bind now. Assuming Trump leaves office 20 Jan 2021. They agreed to give $2000 and $4000. They will have to do it. As for the Porkulus, dump that in Biden's lap. I get it, people are hurting. A massive number of people are facing eviction right now. For home owners, they can drag it out for months. But for renters, they may be out on the street in January. When you factor in penalties, interest and principal, $2000 ain't $hit. For everyone else, save it, you will need it later in a Biden Administration.
Really?
EVERYTHING spent before 1 October 2021 will be on Trump. The fiscal year ends 30 September. Democrats want to do again exactly what they did in obama 1.0, run up spending spectacularly. The deficit will be Trump’s. It will be against those historic, emergency spending levels that the Biden administration will use as a baseline to claim their deficit cuts. They did it to the outgoing Bush43 administration and they will do it here.
“When you factor in penalties, interest and principal, $2000 ain’t $hit.”
$2000. won’t buy what a $100. bill would buy when I started first grade in 1950.
