What will you do with your $2,000 Trump check?

We’re paying it so we should get back the money.

It will never happen

Spend it on groceries in a month. Seriously, fuck that guy

"Considering"

So, lay on unnecessary taxes and then send them back to the consumers. Meanwhile, send subsidies to soy farmers out of the taxes exacted in the unnecessary trade war that cost the farmers. I'm sure some high-grade economic theory lies behind all this.

Donate it to the Democratic National Convention

I am going to buy a Cashmere Cardigan from The Row, put on my fave graphic T underneath it, and then kill myself.

LOL, go out in mismatched style, R7.

Didn't Trump and Musk promise "certain" Americans a $5,000 DOGE check some months ago? The moral of this story is: Don't hold your breath unless you're R7 and you're trying to kill yourself.

R8- I have wanted a cashmere cardigan for so long- Something very simple. But I am NOT that style at all- I like the dressed down look- I spend alot of money buying worn looking shirts, jeans, t-shirts. I think it would be a cool look-

And then kill myself.

This new world and America is REALLY frightening. But we can go out in style-

R9, I had both a black cashmere cardigan and a black cashmere turtleneck. I looked very good in those during my college days… Not sure I could pull it off 20 or so years later.

Fuck cashmere.

A rent boy, feather duster and chastity belt.

If it happens, the government will be mailing out money it does not have.

Trump is only considering thus because his tariff policy has been a complete and total failure.

This payoff will only add to the country’s debt.

I'm going to frame it! It will have pride of place on our President Trump gallery wall!

I love how he is actually suggesting things for the government to do while the gov't is indeed shut down. Why don't we put our energies into that first.

Please no, not a repeat of the checks Biden sent that caused the inflation people have had to suffer through. Only send cash when there is a desperate need to stimulate the economy, like in the depth of a recession.

The checks will go out just before the mid-term elections.

[quote] We’re paying it so we should get back the money.

Except it would be like paying the minimum on your credit card then taking a cash advance.

I'd buy $2000 worth of pizza and give them to the homeless near my house.

It’ll happen in order to wipe the floor with Democrats this year at the polls.

Trump and Republicans are basically going to buy votes with checks every election. This shit should be illegal.

Oh this is a lot like his gay acceptance loudly stated before each election, then brutally countermanded when in office.

So it’s purely being floated to show how much Donnie just loves Americans.

Anyone with more than a single brain cell knows that Donnie cares only about Donnie.

R16, you don't know about that you write. The first two rounds of stimulus checks were sent by Trump (remember when he insisted his signature be on the checks?) and the third and final round under Biden was done much more responsibly (there were income limitations so it targeted those suffering unlike Trump's two rounds which were haphazard and inflation-inducing) and was quite literally a lifeline to those suffering the most under Trump's Covid failures.

And let's not forget the immortal words of the president of Tyson foods when he said "we raised prices because we could." This was the mantra of the end of Trump's first term, and we all saw it. If you want to pin inflation on anyone, put it where it belongs: huge corporations raping the American people "because they could." .

I’m sure we’ll owe tax on it girls

It will work. It worked the last time. The idiots in this country thought the checks were personal checks from trump to them because he "signed" the checks. Auto-pens are only invalid when Democrats use them.

The hypocrisy is no longer even astounding. It's life as we know it.

And they'll think that tariffs are a great thing because it got them a $2000 check. And that trump and the baby jesus loves them and sends them free money.

We can't get past the republicans' venality and the media's complicity.

That won't make up for my health insurance skyrocketing. Fucking moron

By the time the administration gets around to floating checks to the taxpayers, the country will be in a deep recession with armed military stationed everywhere the Orange Skunk dictates. Free money ain't gonna change the dark, oppressive cloud that is engulfing this once free country.

Trump thinks we are all stupid. Of course, miillions upon millions are. The latest scam is pretending to replace the income tax with a 30% national sales tax!

Buy some tasteful moldings from the craft store, gild them with imitation gold leaf and hot glue them to the walls

What r2 said

Two days at Disneyland

That'll cover my bare bones health insurance premium for one month!

The USA has a huge deficit this will only add to the problems down the line.

Get rid of tariffs (or keep sensible ones) and that will solve the problem.

It's only going to go to hardworking white heterosexual Christian Republicunts who pay their taxes and aren't on any form of welfare.

Remember this is the asshole moron with the bruised ego currently retaliating against all of the blue states by withholding their federal funding we're talking about here.

This is called a Stimulus package because Trump and the GOP know the economy is tanking.

When Obama proposed a stimulus during the Great Recession, the GOP turned blue demanding that no stimulus be passed because stimuluses don’t help.

Of course whenever the economy tanks under GOP’s watch, they rush to get a stimulus out

Spend it on boys of ill repute.

Donate it to the Boys and Girls Club, with an additional $100 million of course!

Have my sex change operation!!

This is Trump's pattern:

1. Do something stupid that causes a huge problem.

2. Do something stupid in a desperate attempt to undo the damage (usually, a partial fix that ends up creating new problems).

3. Watch MAGAts blame Democrats for causing the problem and praise Trump for fixing it.

"Have my sex change operation!!"

I'll do it for $1,000- then we can party with the rest of the money.

Spend every penny of it in wicked Europe where I've lived since the last round of Trump checks.

TACO, y'all.
