"Mr. President, when are you going to sign the checks?"

@Jolly you see federal work that is "unnecessary," so you criticize that.
Adding Trump's name to the checks is definitely unnecessary. So that, too, deserves criticism.

Excuse me, who is the President? Does it hurt to have his name on the check? How much was the supplemental appropriation to hire the army of programmers it took to effect this change?

Your position is so absurd, it's laughable. You have now equated a small signature change that cost nothing, to an unneeded federal department that costs billions of dollars.

Bwahahahahahahahaha!!!

Why don't we put his signature on the death certificates?

Because legally, you can't do that. Do you wish to change the law?

Would make for an impressive looking document...

The optics of the check sig are terrible, no matter how you look at it.

Self aggrandizing bullshit!

[Klaus]

I'm pretty sure Trump has already toyed with the idea of his signature and image on dollar bills.

[mark]

@Klaus Please! Do not give the megalomaniac any more ideas.

It's almost as bad as Pelosi and her big box of ink pens with her name on them that she handed out when she signed the papers that were intended to put a stamp on the democrat's waste of millions of taxpayer dollars and 3 years of time they could have spent actually doing their job. You know - another one of those things you Trump bashers never bother to talk about.

[Loki]

Does this impact the direct deposit too?

[jon-nyc]

No

[George K]

@Loki D1 got her money today via direct deposit.

Unrelated question:

When is the US going to get rid of checks? The last time I used one must have been in the early 1990s. I don't quite understand why they are still in use.

[jon-nyc]

Probably sometime between 2050 and never.

[Copper]

[Doctor Phibes]

We got our money today by direct deposit.

[Larry]

I don't get any.

[jon-nyc]

Me too Larry, he’s not my president either.

[mark]

@jon-nyc LMAO!

There you go. The best way to fight the Trump signature is go the direct deposit route. Heck of a lot faster too. Seems like win/win. But I’m a pragmatist, and not a social media influencer

Interesting this. I only learned that an actual deposit is impending because of this thread (I don't get any - curious when i would have clued in otherwise).

Curious how many other taxpayers don't know that. Given that context, makes sense that he wants his name on it.
