I can imagine.

Maybe I missed something, but did someone mention the slew of Trump Pardons yet?

Un. Fucking. Believable.

But why should I be surprised at this stage?

I imagine Byteme, Skunk, tesla et al will still claim that Trump is not a criminal?

Sure thing, skuJ!

I’ll jump right on that after you “quote and reply” your previous destain regarding Obama, Bush and Clinton pardons. Hell, Bill even pardoned Roger on his way out the door.

Year end pardons are nothing new, however, Obama sending a quarter of a BILLION dollars in cash to the Palestinians during the wee hours of his final morning in office is something I promise Trump would NEVER do!

They all self-benefit pardons on the way out.

I will argue that Trump took this to a whole new level.

How many on the list are connected personally to Trump? Fucking Kushner Sr....look up what that fuckface did. How can you get away with something like that?

And then there's the Blackwater assholes.

The list goes on.

and I *won't* argue against the thought that he did.

Bothsidesing it again, even if you agree this is "a whole new level". The crux here is this: Most of the crimes commited by the fuckers that have been pardoned by Donald Trump were ON BEHALF OF DONALD TRUMP. Something else he'll get away with, even if the recurring line that presidential pardons are an "absolute power" is a fucking myth.

Trump on Twitter:
VOTER FRAUD IS NOT A CONSPIRACY THEORY, IT IS A FACT!!!

Twitter to Trump:
This claim about election fraud is disputed

Me:

Oh my!!! Finally some wise words from the master Pig:

Increase payments to the people, get rid of the “pork”.

This whole Covid Relief Bill fiasco baffles me.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but, in normal times (ie when the POTUS is not named Trump) there is some kind of co-ordination between the Whitehouse and the leaders of the other branches of Congress.

So, after months of working at this, there should not be a shock coming from POTUS at the end of it.

No?

IMPOTUS blinked, and signed the bill.

He’s an absolute fuckstain. Watching people *celebrate* this because they thought it meant he gave a single solitary shit about their stimulus checks was hilarious and depressing, because he put millions of people on the precipice of losing their expanded unemployment and eviction protections right before Christmas.

Then he signed it anyway.

Horrible, idiot man.

And yeah, in “normal times,” the president wouldn’t send everyone back to the drawing board after months of waiting, and grandstand and make people panic just so he could briefly look benevolent to a handful of idiots. But these are not normal times.

"Fuckstain", reminds me of those video rants by Michael Rapaport.

Reminds me of Donald Trump heyo

This is getting good!! The House also voted for the $2000 relief cheques. Old Mitch must be sweating now!!

(Although, to the uninformed (Bytor et al) Trump might be looking good with this $2000 dealio. They won't see the bigger picture.)

[!@#$%!]

Larry Summers was on Bloomberg this morning saying how a $2k stimulus could overheat the economy as it would indiscriminately benefit a lot of people who don't need it. As we are, currently there's a lot of saving because there's nowhere for the employed to spend money, while 17 million people can't pay rent.

Here's a bit more on the subject: https://www.washingtonpost.com/opini...2ba_story.html

I'd use majority of a $2000 payment to further pay off my car loan, allowing for more usage of my money elsewhere like perhaps getting some more retirement money saved up.
