Wasnt the main criticism of Trump's check-grandstanding that he delayed the checks (which were ready to go out) for another week or two just because he wanted his name on them? THAT, of course, is a much more substantive criticism than "he broke protocol to score political points".


Was that delay substantiated though? It would take a few hours at most to update a printing press or whatever machine they're using to include a signature.
1-2 week delay for that reason is pretty farfetched to me.

For the anti-Trumpers, it was enough that he even expressed a desire to do it.

I must have been really busy when I wrote my post because I thought I brought that up.

I'm cool with Biden's team doing things like this in order to inform Americans about what he and the other Democrats are doing for them.

Whereas, when Republicans, Democrats, and Trump voted for a stimulus bill together, I was offended Trump wanted to put his name on it.

failing to issue $2000 checks immediately. then again 70% was probably what harris and biden scored on their usual exam during undergrad and law school.

no one cares what offends you. you’re offended by the sun rising so you have to be miserable another day despite all your privilege

there was no delay other than congress taking months to get their spending duties in order. maybe it was a day or two for paper checks. it’s all revisionist history

Joe Biden: "I have hairy legs," "kids used to rub my legs down," "I love kids jumping on my lap."

So criticize Republicans. Biden has the proposal ready to go, and no Republicans got on board with it or even made a reasonable proposal for Biden to compromise with. Best we got was 6 Republicans (not the 10 or 12 that would be needed to break a filibuster) offering substantially smaller checks and far less money to needed areas.

Here's the reality: Biden wanted $2,000 checks before he got elected, Trump had his people negotiate $600 checks. After that Trump tried to pretend he wasn't part of the negotiation and wanted $2,000 checks. Biden promised to fulfill the amount to $2,000. He kept his promise. Anybody who tracked these events knows that the $1,400 issued was a fulfillment of Biden's desire to get $2,000 checks.

If you want to criticize Trump for his failure, that's reasonable. Biden made up for it.

Kind of hilarious that the Trumpists and socialists are making the same silly criticism.

copy of the letter. bragging about the $600 from Trump’s administration + 2 month delay for $1400 as somehow being the same as the (D)s promise for “$2000 checks on day one”


The motherfuckers sent it in an IRS envelope with White House letterhead. I saw a letter from the IRS just days after filing and was like... wtf do you motherfuckers want now???
