Cuppa Thought Fodder ~ Christmas Eve -2020

 I guess I need a new title. Is anyone out there? 
Another Morning, another #Trumpery bombshell. He just wants to burn the whole thing down because the babbling whiny manbaby #BunkerBoy didn't get his Lolly, and now must pay the piper as a civilian.

The House passed a #Covid19 bill back in May :
which the #GrimReaper #MitchMcConnell & his cronies blocked.

After months (EIGHT MONTHS to be exact) of negotiation, The House, the Senate & Mnuchin finally come to a bipartisan Bill that no one is REALLY Happy with, but everyone thinks will pass

and THEN -true to form- #Trumpery waits until the very last moment to complain that HIS PARTY'S $600.oo direct payment is too little (duh) and of course, bolluxes the whole thing. Because, reasons.

The House is NOT rolling over tho

House fails to pass measure to increase stimulus checks to $2,000 "On Monday, I will bring the House back to session where we will hold a recorded vote on our stand-alone bill to increase economic impact payments to $2,000. To vote against this bill is to deny the financial hardship that families face and to deny them the relief they need," Pelosi said in a statement. "Hopefully by then the President will have already signed the bipartisan and bicameral legislation to keep government open and to deliver coronavirus relief," she said."

You may ask why there was so many non-covid19 related expenditures. Good Question ! THAT'S because the GOP ALSO would not address the spending bill, AKA #Trumpery's bloated budget, HIS BUDGET. His own Cabinet insisted that HIS BUDGET & the items HE REQUIRED TO BE IN IT be combined with the Corona Relief Bill.


Rep. Anthony Gonzalez (R-Ohio)
“If @realDonaldTrump didn't want money going to foreign countries, he shouldn't have asked for it. 100% of the items he complained about last night were either a lie (i.e. illegals aren't getting $1800) or things in HIS budget (all the foreign aid),” the Ohio Republican tweeted."

"Just took a quick look at the budget Trump submitted to Congress. Some interesting stuff in there. Just State Department portion: Ex: 125 Million to Egypt. 130M to Nepal. 131M to Burma."

This is so typical of a narcissistic sociopath, tho.

A strong dose of Gaslighting, anyone?
