    1. @Cindy Rice “Omarosa”? How many other names did you make up? And I’m not even “Riding With Biden.”

    1. Yes, democrats rejected the release of liability mitch wanted f or corporations and something about lunch right offs and trump’s requests to rebuild fbi building on same spot instead of moving it to MD so no competitors can put a competing hotel there… Meadows has been torpedoing the talks since mitch and trump put him in charge since they’ve left town …

    2. @Chasmal I can tell you only watch watch CNN. they didn’t mention the 8 kids in Chicago killed in BLM protest. Or the riots. They don’t mention that abe Lincoln was murdered cause he free’d the slaves back in 1865. But then rioters want to take down the abe Lincoln statue. They don’t mention the girl shot for saying “all lives matter”. They don’t mention the rioters are destroying black folks businesses. They don’t mention. I can go on

    2. @Choco Kat   list your reasoning……… By not listing what YOU PERCEIVE as lies. How can we possibly correct YOUR ignorance. Please start including them. Along with how YOU Would Of Done It Better.     The only person who is going to decide whether you live or die is YOU. Do something stupid and Karma is going to be your best friend.     DON’T let Your President Trump TELL YOU What To Do, Show him YOU are in charge. TEAR UP, THAT TRUMP CHECK!     What has Your Elected President Trump prevented YOU from accomplishing in YOUR LIFE.  What have the democrats done for you?  Democratic response to the virus. Pelosi ” Impeach 19 ”    $25.000.000 to Kennedy Center.

      Sign of infection is a foot in the mouth.
      No known cure but some relieved can be had by shooting oneself in the foot repeatedly.

    1. Yep. It’s been sitting on McConnell’s Graveyard desk since May but tRump lies and says they’re doing nothing. 🤥

    2. The bill he was talking about is the one that Nancy and the Dems made, he act like he made it but no.but anyway they finally got it done

    3. @Mekilla 17 and the dems blocked a law enforcement reform, I suppose something they view to be so important can wait… so that they can give biden the credit?

  1. That doesn’t mean sht. There’s a thing called Congress & they can/will block it. Like Steve said last time, the people want the money & they want it now….

    1. Executive actions, so far, are a blow hole. The grotesque is not king, not the the big guy. The President has powers. He’s not all powerful. The branches of government are structured as such, for a reason. We are a democratic society. No dicks need apply…

    2. In the very long term (as in after trump leaves office), yes. In the short term… no. Congress could try to pass a bill blocking Trump’s action but Trump would just veto it, and without a 2/3rds majority in both houses actually willing to show some spine, congress isn’t likely to overturn the veto. The more likely route is that congress would sue, kicking the matter to the courts, who would probably say “no, you can’t do that.” Trump would appeal and the whole thing would keep getting kicked up the totem pole until it ended up in the supreme court, who would probably say “no, you can’t do that and here’s why.” The way the executive orders are set up the president can do a lot with very little restriction from congress, although while he can use money already assigned he can’t actually apportion money towards an unintended purpose, as it is the role of congress to control the purse. Also any order he signs can be immediately rescinded by his successor. He COULD declare a national emergency to free up funds dedicated to dealing with fires, hurricanes, earthquakes, etc., which he already tried to do with the border wall. This would probably be a more viable use of that power and he could probably get away with it in the courts. In the long term though congress needs to more clearly define what a national emergency is and limit just how long an emergency lasts after a president declares one. We’ve technically been in a state of “emergency” with Iran since 1979, which frees up the president to act (in regards to Iran) in ways that would normally require approval from congress. If something goes on for over 40 years it may be a disaster but it probably isn’t an emergency (unless it’s like a meteor slowly headed for the planet or something).

    3. I see why black folks have a different method to survival…I guess folks will never truly understand that😂 but we still here and still thriving.. whew Chile I need a break from America. Ion know what’s worse…BLM movement police pandemic unemployment housing crisis mental health or the election. 2020 make history… nobody will forget this year. Lebanon! This world is sinking not just America

    4. Trump knows that, he’s just trying to make it appear like he’s actually doing something for the American people

    1. @David Mc we gotta get the police union changed up. I keep tellin ppl stop sayin defund the police. Cuz most of em wuld call the police😂😂😂 not me… But THEY WULD😂😂😂💯

    1. @Danny Hill
      You have been lied to and brainwashed by Media propaganda, Hydroxychloroquine is 10x safer than Tylenol. Its been generic for decades, one of the most common treatment, its being used world wide, used for chronic diseases, the very comment you make shows how misinformed the Media warching public is. MSM is Propaganda , has been for over 100 years.

    2. Hey Nancy if only someone would give HIM a shot of Clorox like he told Americans to do 🖒🖒🖒😆

  2. HE HAS NO POWER ! IT’S CONGRESS WHO SETS THE MONEY ! PAYROLL TAX CUT IS JUST THE “REPUBLICANS ” way of CUTTING SOCIAL SECURITY FUNDING ! HOW STUPID DOES HE THINK WE ARE ????

    1. He is tired and frustrated and bored with his complicated new toy that he can not operate, and he doesn not eant to llay with it anymore.

      I do not put it above him to dump Pence and make a spectacle chosing another VP, or dumping the R label and running on his own label.

      When he loses, he will attach his name and to anything he can sell to his diehard followers.

    2. Yes, while we, die starve or get put out on the streets… smh 🤬🤬 Republicans are working with Russia to tear this country down…

    1. @Alan Perry
      .           Joe Biden  –   MADE IN CHINA

      How’s that working out for YOU !
      Your President TRUMP – MADE IN USA

      Was the DEMOCRATS last
      ELECTION campaign SLOGAN
      ” We’re Going To Impeach The President ”
      or is it this years?

    2. @John Brattan obamagate 2020 coming to a prison near you all dressed up in the new bad men orange gang fashion show.

  3. As we all know, when Trump is a parrot repeating himself over and over like he did here with his words ” *The End Of The Year* ” is always the confirmation of him lying. So this is his political attempt too give him brownie points for the election again with lies. By the way, did Mexico ever pay for the wall as he mentioned at this time in early 2016 before he was president also? Similar at least money wise but different area. How did that work out for America? *Not to well at all* ! The difference here is he is playing with all our lives this time.

    1. He trying to help America families and you still sit and complain while Democrats sits and do nothing also how is he playing with our lives what about democrats sit and do nothing while people are going homeless and loses their jobs

    1. J Hallin I’ll bet Biiden knows what Thighland is 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 or yose mite 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

  4. basically gutting Medicare like they have always wanted..they have lost the right to govern 25th amendment now

  5. I thought he said they created lots of jobs and everything was ok. He threatens?? Talking about a dictator!!!

  6. The u.s constitution stated that
    Congress is the supreme leader of the land, Congress is responsible for making laws in the land not the president of the u.s.

  7. what a freakin liar. The democrrats are the one’s that want this package not the republicans. He’s just putting on a show..He doesn’t even know how to read…stupid

  8. TRUMP: “Democrats are holding relief hostage”
    *FACT: The House passed a bill over two months ago, and Moscow Mitch wouldn’t even read it. As he promised, he will obstruct ANY bill coming from democrats. He is holding relief hostage until democrats capitulate to HIS demands, he is NOT negotiating at all.*
    TRUMP: “Payroll tax cuts help the People”
    *FACT: Payroll tax cuts only help the rich, and exclude the unemployed, veterans, the disabled, and the elderly, which reduces the amount of aid given out overall while gutting Social Security, saving more money for republicans to embezzle from taxpayers for themselves.*
