  1. Oh get a job? Why don’t I just put on my job helmet, climb in my little job cannon and blast off to job land, where jobs grow on Jobbies!

    1. @llDarkPhoenixll wow a democratic temper tantrum wouldn’t expect anything different from you this is why nobody can stand the Democrats you think you rule the world you’re a small small piece of it.

    2. Notice how @Ou812 just went straight to making fun of people instead of answering how her city has tons of jobs, but most of the country is in the opposite position.

    3. @Jeremiah Bachmann the point is you’re stuck where you’re at exactly where they want you and your little manipulated mind. You couldn’t live outside of your Democratic City you wouldn’t know how to exist.

    4. No body asks what happened to initial relief funds!!!
      My investigation report on how Trump spent $3 TRILLION ($3,000,000,000,000) stimulus funds that his administration received to combat coronavirus (including $100s of billions for testing, masks and other PPE). Yet 140K deaths, 3.6M infected and 40M jobless!
      Please read to see who got the most of $3 Trillion and for what.

  2. *They need to figure this out. Just extend the 600/weekly. They’ve bailed out multi million dollar industries. Excuse me, WE’VE, bailed them out. This is our bail out.*

    1. Can’t believe this guy can get away with saying that low end workers are lazy, and would rather sit on that 600/week than go back to work.

    2. If Republican Senators don’t extend it there will be the biggest riots in American History, looting, destruction! Unemployed Americans can’t survive on peanuts, the weekly 600 isn’t even a lot.

  3. Georgia Governor Brian Kemp has overridden mask ordinances. Doesn’t really inspire confidence in returning to work.

    1. @anne bruce sure, you can choose to wear them but then you’re also going to get bullied. And some business owners won’t let you because it goes against their beliefs.

    2. I live in Georgia & always wear a mask when I go to the grocery – the ONLY place I go. I’d say about 30% of people are masked, including the workers. I haven’t been bullied, but I’ve had to get salty w/ people about social distancing. And I agree, Kemp & DeSantis are both total morons. Happy to say I didn’t vote for him; I voted for Stacey Abrams who he stole the election from.

    3. @Keri Allen we have now in Scotland a policy to wear a mask in any store. That said I had to ask a lady my own age to stand on the marked are, I got an eye roll but I said thank you and that was it. Another day a woman wasnt wearing but her friend was, she may have had a reason not to but I was fuming that she was talking and spraying her droplets around the whole store and she was talking all the time! So no mask keep your mouth shut and I will say so next time it happens.

  4. Now that the billionaires have received bailouts & the stock market is soaring the WH job is done apparently!

    1. No, the airlines need more money. They spent 90 or more percent buying back their stock. Their shareholders have been kept happy now we must do our part to keep them happy. Funnel more tax money into their pockets.

    2. 97 % of Americans work for companies that have less than 50 employees , only 0,01% work for the 30 Dow jones companies and 0,1 % for the 100 nasdaq companies .
      All the support has gone to companies , that even if you would close all of them that would not have any affect in US unemployment rate .

    3. @Pete Lind real small businesses employ about half the working population. I think this is correct. Too lazy to look it up. LOL

  5. You can’t get waiters back to work? That’s because restaurants are closed and it’s DANGEROUS. Who wants to risk their lives and families to make LESS money???

  6. THE BIG LIE HAS BEEN EXPOSED. Wages are so low that hardworking Americans CAN’T AFFORD to go back to work & health coverage is so poor they can’t RISK going back to work.

  7. It’s time for Ivanka to “find something new.” Unfortunately the only other job she’s qualified for is already taken by Vanna White.

    1. You think Ivanka is up to all that walking? I’m pretty sure she couldn’t make it through a whole show. She’ll have to find something new.

  8. Congress threw lots of money around for military contractors and tax breaks for the wealthy bur now this guy wants to take baby steps for working Americans- I CALL BS

  9. What we *actually* need is to pay people to stay home until we have a vaccine. This is not rocket science. We’re the richest country in the world but the only places that see that sort of financial security are large corporations. Stop putting profits before people O “Party of Life” 🙄

  10. Here’s the thing dude. You ready??? ITS NOT YOUR MONEY!!!!!!!! SO WHY ARE YOU WORRIED ABOUT PEOPLE GOING BACK TO WORK BOY???? The economy??? Please!!! No some how somewhere your pockets are getting light and you need the sweat off someone’s back to make the money for you and you don’t care if they get sick doing it for you!!!

  11. Myth – poor people are lazy and don’t want to work.
    Truth – poor people work harder, pay more and get less.

    1. Don’t you know that all poor people get too much money already? They are poor because they have all the money….err, uhmm. These people who are against helping the less fortunate are soooo wrong about basic facts.

  12. Ivanka: “Just ask your father to give you a job in the White House where you only have to smile a few times a year and smuggle a bible in your handbag to a photo op.”

    1. @XoXo At least she didn’t hold the can upside down. Her father needs to take Bible-holding lessons from her.

  13. There going to be chaos starting in September.. Go get a weapon people, it’s not going to be easy… Take my warning

  14. Oh, I’m sure the trump administration has a more than adequate plan to solve this problem. They’ve proved so competent at solving problems thus far

  15. He recommends everyone get out to work from his Zoom account in his house. A portrait in courage I think.

  16. My daughter is a hostess and even though her employer has reopened they are only at 50% capacity. She has been in contact with her employer on a regular basis and they don’t have her on the schedule yet. She’s trying to go back, but there is no work available.

  17. I have been trying to find a job and the ones that are out there is part time, paying $10 to $12 an hour. I was making $15 hrs 40hrs plus a generous bonus monthly. You do the mb ath Mr Brady

    1. I am so sorry Diane. I really pray that you will stay safe and make it thru this terrible time. This is an absolute train wreck for the working and middle class. Best wishes always for you and yours, from a middle aged grandma in Idaho. 🙂

  18. Considering the fact that Trump’s response to the coronavirus has been an unmitigated disaster, another relief bill will be necessary.
