...it's a DEFERRAL, meaning you've got to pay it back.
So now in addition to the Trump Virus and the Trump Recession, we'll have the Trump Tax (at some point).

Also, it creates a shortfall in Social Security and Medicare funding. Furthermore, it's a break for EMPLOYERS, not employees.
Stupid idea.
I am sure the American public will make note of any action the DemocRats take to stop his executive orders.

If Obama had ignored the Constitution and drafted similar executive orders, all the Republiholes and their lackeys would have popped like overripe zits. As you would have.
Trump does not have the authority to spend federal funds.
We will see...
"No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law;"
At least us real Americans still believe that.
As usual mp has only half the story. If reelected he pledged that it would not have to be paid back.

After supporting pelosi's $3.5 trillion plan, kevin is concerned about deficits.
The problem is that in places like NY there is no place to spend the money. You cannot go anywhere or do anything.
1) He doesn't have unilateral ability to change tax policy
2) His campaign pledge is meaningless because neither Republicans nor Democrats in Congress support it. Which brings us back to number (1)
3) Its beyond stupid policy anyway. Printing another trillion dollars for people who are fully employed while digging a bigger hole for Social Security and Medicare.
The best case scenaro is Trump somehow manages to suspend payroll tax until the end of the year...and make everyone's end-of-year filing a real adventure. But on the plus side, your taxes would "seem" lower going into the election. And there's your motivation.
"I've got a pen to take executive actions where Congress won't"
Oh yeah. I'm sure the Democrats here were all butt hurt when Obama said that. Weren't you? Hypocrites.
I'm sure the Democrats are seething that President Trump would have the audacity to extend unemployment benefits.
I'm sure the Democrats hate that President Trump's order will prevent evictions for those suffering lockdown's impact on the economy.
I'm sure the Democrats are appalled that President extended the moratorium on student loan repayments.
I'm also sure that most all Democrats would be praising identical actions as 'Bold' and 'Needed Relief' if they were taken by a Democrat president. You know I'm right. But once again you hate Trump more than you love our country.
If you aren't happy with any of this you can blame Congress. They are on vacation because this pandemic shit isn't important enough to stick around and get a deal done. President Trump used his emergency powers as President to shift resources to do what's most important for the American people. The Pandemic is still a National Emergency, right?
Charles you are 100% correct. The liberal morons who spew their hatred for the President will never agree with the steps the President has taken - they will decry that the asinine DemocRat bailout package was not approved ---because of their hatred for the President they forget that this is the SECOND time Pukelosi has delayed needed relief for American citizens, all while the top ten DemocRatic run cities suffer more poverty murders and riots.
