Have you had your TDS diagnosed?
You mean, having a logical and rational mind?
I have no idea your politics and don't really care. Because those benefits lapses on Saturday and Trump held the bill over the weekend after his little nonsensical press conference/slash mental masturbation session those people will not get that money for this week
The delay was 100% on Trump
He got the bill last week
Ever heard of a pocket veto?
I have
Most presidents don't do that and neither did Trump
so why are you pointing it out?
The delay is not trumps fault. The delay is the fault of the bill stuffing.
What?
He fucking signed it
@SoonMrWick you'll happily cower in place at once.
@SoonMrWick you'll wear a mask as you cower in place and love it.
O really
He could have vetoed it immediately and then Congress could have tried to override the veto or start over.
He could have signed it immediately and benefits would have continued.
Or he could have done the "Pocket Veto" which is to do nothing for 10 days not including Sundays.
Which did he do?
None.... he waited
then signed it
period
he did something weird and not period
TDS
@SoonMrWick I dont think you know what a Pocket Veto is, do you?
Just a neat phrase you heard somewhere
Unbridled cowardness has gotten us to where we are today.
Because what Trump did was not a pocket veto
"As President I am demanding many rescissions under the Impoundment Control Act of 1974."
Is it possible for Pence to split the votes in the “contested” states (where he got duel electors) as he reads them? The Dems would have to get the 1 and 1 to contest, and both majorities to overturn, and Trump hits 270 first as they’re read...
He tried giving it a chance to fix the bill, don't know if it will work.
We've put that in here three times. I can't imagine how he would have missed it. I'm mearly saying there were more options than outright signing it since they would have overruled it with 2/3 vote... and he took one of those avenues. The problem is not trump, the problem is the bill itself. Some people can get over that, some people can't.
No he didnt
He could sign it, veto it or do nothing for 10 days (pocket veto)
He signed it
The bill is now law
But he signed it 2 days too late for people to get their money for this week
They will get it next week
This is not complex
