I just think it’s great, if Trump was 3 chess moves ahead in April, and had a GIANT slush fund in place, to use later in the year if. Buck and Nancy didn’t want to play later in the year regarding the budget.

Exactly. Remember his statement the other day. He said, (paraphrasing) we still have x Percent (if my memory serves I believe the number was 61%) of the first stimulus that we haven’t even used yet.
And, the Gov’t is in the process of recovering many tens of billions that were fraudulently applied for.
My understanding is the President can allocate that 61%(?) in any way he chooses as long as that allocation is in keeping with the intent of procurement.
That is, for the purpose of benefitting the small businesses and American workers affected by the pandemic.

Maybe. But it seems unlikely that any president could have a giant slush fund and keep it secret from the avaricious Democraps
