Yesterday everyone was complaining about the stimulus and the way the bill was being passed. Now that Trump has said it's too low and won't sign it until it's more, will you give him credit if you end up with more $?

Sure.

Though this feels like a last ditch effort to:
A) Distract from the pardons he gave
B) Create some good will on his way out of office so when he runs in 2024 he can be like "see? I got congress to give you more money than just $600!"

this is the first thing he's done that resembles the president he promised to be four years ago lol

he should be thanking americans for not having him thrown in prison till death. he could turn this stimulus into 10,000 and it still wouldn't even begin to make up for everything he's done wrong in his 4 years as president

Considering he's not actually doing it for the people, but instead to make himself look good? Nah.

Wouldn't it stall the current payout if more money is put on the table and they would have to debate about it for half a year?

I'll acknowledge it as a last good act, even if it was to improve his image. Still won't absolve him of all the other shit but an extra $1400 would make my life so much nicer

I mean, it's a good suggestion by Trump, but he has taken every possible position on a 2nd stimulus. So it's hard to give him credit for this.

He has said the 2nd stimulus bill is too large, too small, won't happen until after the election, and that the direct payments are too small.

It also risks the bill not passing at all and there just being no stimulus.

No, taxation is theft. You don't get a thank you for returning money stolen under threat of imprisonment.

I will thank him for not being a puppet of the military industrial complex, China and the permanent government. Trying to keep the American spirit alive and fighting for free and fair elections. He's the folk hero we don't deserve.

i'd imagine a good number of them would immediately donate it to his campaign fund he's been using as a front to pay for legal issues.

It's funny how right wing news outlets are recanting their claims of widespread voter fraud after being threatened with defamation lawsuits, but people like Kolibri X keep spreading that bullshit.

~60 court cases and the Trump campaign hasn't shown any evidence of widespread fraud at all, but sure it's a credible suggestion. Right.

I mean he's still terrible and I don't trust his motives, but he's actually right on this (not just the low amount in stimulus, but the huge money being tacked onto to a US Covid relieve bill that is going to other countries) so I'll give him credit.
