  1. ” Government is the problem ”
    Republicans
    ” Republicans are the problem ”
    The United States of America

    1. COYS Is a soon to be deceased Russian bot 🤖! As soon as they drag Drump out of the White House by his wrinkly balls Putin will begin eliminating you and your brethren! You will become obsolete to him and he doesn’t like loose ends or loose lips!

      If you aren’t a Russian than you are an inbred hillbilly that can’t wait to marry his 9 year old sister! Mommy who is daddies sister is sooo proud she bought you a new double wide trailer/meth lab! Shine up that one yellow tooth so you look presentable! Better hurry because daddy is eyeing her and he has two yellow teeth! Which are you!

    2. Its like they are wheeling Joe Biden around with sunglasses….kind of like in the movie “Vacation” with Chevy Chase……. (He is Dead on Arrival Biden!) Sanders=FDR

  2. No slush fund for the corporations.Trump wants to give money to his buddies with no paper trail.Time to end corporate welfare.

    1. @David Hale
      What abortion? Spreading rumors again?

      Who told you $500 billion will go to the abortion clinics? Republican wants $500 billion for the corporations, just like last time in 2008 without any conditions.

      When you get a car loan, can you buy something else with that money? Who loans money without any conditions??? Only the REPUBLICANS!!!

    2. Again socialist republicans in line for their free handout, then pointing their finger at democrats calling them socialist.

    3. Cort helping people in a time of need is different then having them live of the government. Are you that shallow you can’t see the difference.
      So you’d prefer that we do nothing? Is that a better option for you sense you find it to be a problem?

    4. Its like they are wheeling Joe Biden around with sunglasses….kind of like in the movie “Vacation” with Chevy Chase……. (He is Dead on Arrival Biden!) Sanders=FDR

    1. @Anti Trumper our thanks and praise should be to all who are fighting for Americans lives. Indeed the world’s! But you are welcome.

      And thank you.

  3. Republicans want to bail out large corporations while giving LOANS to small businesses?? Give BIG LOANS TO CORPORATIONS SO THEY CAN PAY THEM BACK! Bail out the little guy with NO STRINGS ATTACHED!
    Oh, sorry. Forgot. When Trump’s hotels get bailed out, he doesn’t want to pay it back and he gets a big chunk AGAIN of taxpayer money for his wallet because he’s the CEO?? OMG. Get this greedy TANGERINE TRAITOR & m.f.er. OUT ALREADY!!

    1. @over seer that’s 247 pages 😱…do it say anything about the checks to the Americans?…I saw where it said rent and electric bill will be a freeze on that… thanks for linking the page.

    2. Tanasha Brown yes it says about individuals. And it’s only helping companies with 500 or less employees. So it’s not true that it’s bailing out corporations. Like. Kellogg’s craft Johnson and Johnson. Etc. those are the elite. The corporations. The Democrats are the bigger enemy. They are the reptilians. They blocked this bill which they had already agreed too. And wanted a new bill that includes the green new deal. Now is not the time for that. But this is all political for them.

    3. @over seer
      Traitor Trump is a moron, a liar and the biggest baby to ever cheat to become president.
      He must be having a horrendous time not being able to have his hate rallies with his adoring nitwit cult victims cheering, hooting and hollaring like a pack of lobotomized sheep. Ugh
      Can’t wait until he loses 2020 (he has absolutely NOTHING going for him) and SDNY prosecutes the career criminal and pathelogical liar. I hope it leads to a cold prison cell with big Bubba for a roomie. His 3 oldest brats deserve to be prosecuted too! Lol

    1. Its like they are wheeling Joe Biden around with sunglasses….kind of like in the movie “Vacation” with Chevy Chase……. (He is Dead on Arrival Biden!) Sanders=FDR

    2. So just curious after the crisis is over what happens when Americans do not have jobs to go back to because the industry closed

    3. The Airline Industry, The Commercial Space Industry (ie Elon Musk), The Candy Industry, (ie Mars Family) The Casino Industry (ie Trump), The Cruise Ship Industry, are among a few, have asked for bailouts in this new deal propsed on Tuesday….. with NO OBLIGATIONS TO WORKERS, NO OBLIGATIONS TO PREVENT STOCK BUY BACKS, NO PROMISES NOT TO GIVE BIG EXEC PAY OUTS AND BONUSES!
      The devil is in the details. The details are in fine print. BUT read the fine print! It is the future of America!!!!!!!!!!!

      Bail out industries?…YES but thru promises SIGNED by big Corps. IN BLOOD THAT THEY WILL KEEP ON WORKERS at their jobs in spite of the shut down AND PAY WORKERS while they are layed off due to this virus…NO LAY OFFS, NO STOCK BUY BACKS by Big Corps.

      The election of Trump was vengeance for the lip service Obama payed in the bank and auto industry bail out of 2008 while workers and families lost everything! We can never have another Trump or worse than Trump.

      We MUST have guarantee for protection of working Americans…. the USA takes care of its people first not Corporations

    4. Peter Ford 👍🏼 trickledown economics is a con job by wealthy politicians. give the money to the people who live pay to pay and that actually NEED it and trust me they’ll spend it and that’s what will stimulate an economy

    5. Kyle Alexander 👍🏼 with the way president brainfart is running (ruining) the show you’d have a great chance for seeking asylum

  4. *Does a $500 Billion slush fund for America’s richest Americans and corporations sound good to you, MAGAtrash?*

    1. @Kamil Krawczak You’re trash. Why have anything in the bill other than aid? id these companies fail, when this is over, where you gonna work? OH You’re welfare trash. Expect the government to send you checks?

    2. @A Hard Red Pill To Swallow I know, right? Trump, a leader?! What a laugh! He couldn’t organize a one-car parade! LMAO!

    1. @Becky Vickers i know a fraud when I see one. Trump wants his cut. Make no mistake about our grifter in chief.

    2. @Becky Vickers Hi Becky did you learn something now. They had to make sure that trumpee’s hotels would be exempt from any bail out. But don’t worry he will find to make money off Now the debate is this. If they let him make money he will not try to reopen things at easter. If they let his cos benefit it will have to be closely monitored.
      Now you know it had nothing to do with the individual payments. right genius?

  5. No slush fund for Trump in the bill. No lifting of distancing. Focus on massive testing. Focus on hospitals, health care employees, get ventilators on top of list. Please, please

    1. This is a disaster as a leader, A good leader need good helper, and listen to them and make the decision, he is a person don’t listen to anyone, he always right, good luck to all American

  6. Don’t give Mnuchin oversight on anything. He made his riches foreclosing on home owners after the 2008 collapse. This is their whole MO. Let it collapse and gather the loot.

    1. @Ronny DeVane as usual Pelosi is stopping us from getting relief, her bill will fund planned parenthood and post office who don’t charge China any postage, wake up. MSNBC LIES.

    2. Ronny DeVane greedy immoral Republicans!! Have they ever cared about anyone but the rich!?

    3. Frank Smith seriously are you that ignorant? The Democrats want something to help those that need it! Not the corporations! Don’t you realize what the whole corrupt Trump family is costing us?! The Trumps cannot even be on the board of a charity because of their corruption and fraud!! But they have an open check book now!! Wake up!!

  7. On election two words ABSENTEE BALLOTS . Many states don’t require a reason for ABSENTEE BALLOTS. If your state is having a primary soon, consider it. Also if you’re in a state with voter suppression,look into voting this way

    1. Oregon is all mail in ballots, so simple and they say safe!! I am back in Montana now so I absentee vote, you are exactly right, we as voters should push for this, it makes perfect sense, to me, it is the only thing about the whole process that makes sense to me!!

    2. @Dale Hauk i don’t know if there will be enough left after trump shovels millions and millions into his and his friends businesses and shares it with his kids!!

    3. VOTE BY MAIL, LIKE MANY STATES ALREADY DO, IT IS EASIER AND IT IS VERIFIABLE BECAUSE EACH VOTE HAS A SERIAL NUMBER, SO YOU HAVE A PAPER TRAIL. THE SPANISH FLU CAME BACK IN THE FALL WORSE THAN IT WAS IN THE SPRING.VOTING BY MAIL IS THE ONLY WAY WE CAN BE ASSURED OF HAVING AN ELECTION

    1. @Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat There was an incident with the methane collector but it turned out ok. We only lost Bessie and she was old anyway. That’s more hay for the rest of them. The BBQ in the back forty was enjoyed by all. We drew lines in the sand so people wouldn’t get too close.

    2. @Fortis Fortuna Adiuvat Chamath Palihapitiya, founder and CEO of investment firm Social Capital, said the U.S. shouldn’t be bailing out billionaires and hedge funds during the coronavirus pandemic. [that’s what the bankruptcy courts are for]

      Palihapitiya added that he was concerned that the Federal Reserve’s plans to support to economy during the COVID-19 crisis are going to have consequences, and it would have been better to just give more money to Americans.

  8. While you get your pay check, regular Americans have to wait and worry while y’all haggle like we’ve got this.
    What a joke.

    1. @TOXIC MALE Try to focus on the real issues, not utterly meaningless trivia. Should the Repugnant ones be trying to force through a huge corporate bailout as the price for sending a tiny, one-time check to real Americans? Should Trump be talking about loosening restrictions when we have no idea how bad the plague is going to get?

    2. @John Lawson oh my another pseudo intellectual marxist.
      meaningless trivia,like invading Libya and destabilizing the middle east,after they gave up their nuke and wmd programs.
      so kim sees what happens to Qaddafi,so he will never give up his,thanks the the great PHD president obama the nutless.
      but i guess the deaths of almost a million souls in Libya and syria is meaningless trivia too.
      you know i could go on but i am sure it would not help you,hull.

      X democrats for TRUMP 2020

  9. same nation that built Liberty ships in days can’t get masks and gowns and tests off the ground? might be a leadership issue in the US.

    1. Ask yourself why have these CEOs have all stepped down

      More than 1,000 CEOs stepped down during the first three quarters of 2019, according to a report published by the staffing firm Challenger, Gray, & Christmas — 1,160 executives, to be exact.Dec 23, 2019

    2. Towannie Armstrong I tried,almost stopped it at 1 minute, thought maybe I’m not being fair but by 3 minutes I couldn’t take it anymore, I can’t believe a word trump says, sorry not buying.

    1. So you actually believe the American people will vote for Biden over Trump? He couldn’t even handle his few minute livestream .. you know the one where he was mumbling and looked tired? Joe Biden does not have what it takes to defeat Trump! Honestly the fact they are allowing him to do this shows me they dont value the elderly…

    2. Now we see the real attempt at election rigging for 2020. Dems added into the bill “No restrictions on absentee votes, no notarization, no witnesses required, no ID required” Hmmmm… How does that help with corona relief? It doesnt, it opens a loophole for unlimited anonymous/illegal voting on a mass scale.

    3. Now we see the real attempt at election rigging for 2020. Dems added into the bill “No restrictions on absentee votes, no notarization, no witnesses required, no ID required” Hmmmm… How does that help with corona relief? It doesnt, it opens a loophole for unlimited anonymous/illegal voting on a mass scale.

  10. It’s time we the people take our nation back. I don’t know about everybody else, but I’m tired of these rich, corrupt politication lining their pockets and bank accounts at the working class expense.

    1. That’s what I $ay. They just get richer and AMERICA KEEPS CRUMBLING. the virus couldn’t make us that much sicker than trump does.

    2. 3 24 20 Hey Bill Proctor, Agree. #Vote2020. Stay & be well; everyone’s cooperation is needed!
