    I don't know how much of this is the so-called "relief bill" and how much is in the rest of the 5000-plus pages of the bill:

    I just want to know if today’s 1% bounce goes to the Trump or Biden stock market increase ledger. LOL.

    Also if you scroll back 4 or 5 days ago I said Trump knew he lost this and would sign. Just more fake drama and fake popcorn eating and fake making Trump lose again, but me pointing out the obvious is probably getting tiresome by now.

        Because he does not know what “he” proposed. Most likely “his people” proposed things he doesn’t know and doesn’t understand, now he line-items the same items his administration proposed, hoping his supporters are too low-information to notice that his administration has again slapped its own face.

          He’s on a 45 day losing streak, maybe he figures if he gets in a fight with himself he can’t lose.

          Only non-witches get due process.

              I'm at an all time high in terms of net worth. If people want to hold down white males, they're doing it wrong.

              Education is extremely important.

                  The only real loss would be Georgia, the rest were easily predicted and baked into every objective analysis. He’s there on the 4th for a rally. I think you will have earned crowing rights if the Senate goes Democrat.

                    Do you have a better explanation for why Trump line-item vetoed his admin’s own proposals?

                      https://www.nytimes.com/2021/03/07/business/dealbook/bailout-pensions-stimulus.html

                      “Just to show you how bad this bill is, there’s more money in this to bail out union pension funds than all the money combined for vaccine distribution and testing,” Senator Bill Hagerty, a Tennessee Republican, said last week.

                      "Now look here, you Baltic gas passer... " - Mik, 6/14/08

                      The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                              That’s wrong, of course.

                              A LOT of the people getting $1400 per check will never pay a penny in income tax and will continue to receive money back in earned income.
