  1. If there is no funding the law will be broken duto the government is interested in politics not love for there constitution or the citizens

  2. If Trump had listened to Drs. Fauci and Birx, America would be pulling out of this pandemic right now.

    1. Rory Cannon Everything I said is TRUE, and furthered example in the fact that out of my long list of iterations you weren’t able to challenge ONE of those points.
      Nice attempt with the lame drive by “you’re a big fat liar” that sounds like it came from a 9 year old, but I called your bluff, and now EVERYONE will read how you NEVER came back to defend your allegation.

    2. If those doctors had spoken up earlier, we might at least be in the curve by now…but they too accepted trumps stupid rants, until they could’nt any longer..then trump Ousted them the same way he Ousted half of his ” Non work ” force.

    3. @Amani Rinas we got the Karen s and Ken s
      Oh wait this fake it’s real
      Oh wait we can use bleach

  3. Dear Good Americans,
    trumps base is a minority representing ONLY 35% of the electorate.
    You represent the other 65%.
    YOU MUST VOTE in November!

    1. Rory Cannon
      Look at the primary turn out for trump. Broke records in multiple states. #walkaway movement is growing, 65,000 more democrats voting for trump since the riots began. Lots of money coming in too. He raised like $20 million in his first virtual fundraiser

    2. @Logan McLean the primary is literally a poll, identical to all the others you claim are fake. polls put biden ahead.

  4. Trump doesn’t want to give funds to States, because it will spoil his law and order plan. States will lay off police and Trump will send in his goons to save the people. 45 is such a loser….

    1. Thomas Jackson
      Democrats are already defunding them. Quit lying. Democrats are the ones calling for them to be completely defunded.

    2. @Logan McLean If effing Congressional Republicans DO NOT do the funding that you and I have already effing paid for through our taxes to support states, cops are screwed anyhow. Trump lied(gee again!) about Biden supporting “defunding” the police. Biden is not for that and neither are most Democrats.

  5. the states will start auctioning trumps family assets and properties before going bankrupt. thats the only way to get his attention at this point.

    1. They defunded the Tax payers with their PPE money, and gave it to themselves, and the rich, so what’s so hard to believe, about anything else that the GOP defunds, to fatten their own pockets.

    2. @Logan McLean what’ll they cut but city services since you’re so adept understanding fiscal policy?

    3. @Logan McLean Lying about what? Murphy just said it: without additional funding support police officers will get laid off. That unfortunately will be “defunding police”.

    4. Karen Byrd
      Democrats are already defunding police, yet complain they might lose their police because of no money. I’d say let them have no police, I like the social experiment, just keep it in blue states

  6. I don’t know why this is treated like a FEMA disaster where Federal Government would be forced to give states funding. The Govenors should declare a state of emergency and force Federal funding.

  7. 90% of the 3 trillion bail out money goes to big corporations, 5% to poor folks and the other 5% to the politicians and zero for the states, ain’t that right

    1. The corporations and the rich would always vote themselves more free money. I would too, and anyone that says no
      thank you to handouts needs to get off their high horse and drop the self-righteous holier than thou attitude. Just about everyone loves free money.

  8. In spite of what the Governor just said Leadership in Congress is about to hand over 3 Trillion more Dollars to 45 to play with without Congressional Oversight. Who knows, 45 may surprise us all and not do anything ILLEGAL WITH ALL THAT MONEY, BS 🤬🤬🤬 #enablers #complisit #cowards

  9. Rethuglicans are facilitating C19 so as to lockdown and cancel the vote. The process of an authoritarian take over is now! ALL RETHUGLICANS OUT — if possible.

  10. trump cries about removing statues, confederate flags, defunding police… yet pushes to defund states with democratic leaders, cut Affordable Care Act, cut PPE funding, cut covid19 testing, cut schools if they do not put our children in harms way??? WTF this is out of control! Nobody in Washington has to power to veto or stop this train wreck??????

  11. The US will never get the pandemic under control by the end of the year. Maybe if Biden’s elected something can be done, but never under Trump. This is the general view from Canada.

    1. @Karen Byrd that means who we got now can do whatever he want to until then
      He get mad because he didn’t win and do some stuff s we will never forget

  12. Now people are truly aware what its like being in or leaving a relationship with a narcissist…they make you sick, they make you broke, take all your friends away and mentally and physically abuse you.

  13. HOW ARE THERE FUNDS FOR STATES WHEN THE FED GOV’T IS SPENDING BILLIONS ON THE INDUSTRIAL MILITARY COMPLEX??!!

  14. Where are the Trillions of dollars , it does not seem like any small business or state has received this money.
