Here's a fun fact: the megarich billionnaire fucks have no income. They'll get their $2000 check too.

If it works and papers over Trump's approval, the Republic is dead.
If it doesn't work, Trump's approval is still far higher than it should be, and the Republic may already be dead anyway.
What a time to be alive.

Any number over zero is far higher than it should be. His fans truly disgust me.

The Republic is already dead. What you're seeing is its twitching corpse moving.

Yeah, I suspect as much. Hence the "the Republic may already be dead anyway."

It was hilarious when it responded to a joke video taking it seriously based only on the subject line.

If I heard right he doesn't mean direct payments. More vague "tax savings" and such that total to this.

Tocqueville assumed Congress would pay the bribe. Trump won't pay a cent to anyone.

The money will be paid to the businesses to offset to stupid tariffs. The rich get richer. It's just more steps.

If we take money from a criminal, doesn't that make us all criminals?
