Jaysus….
TRUMP, on how quickly laid-off U.S. workers would get up to $400 a week bonus payments under his executive order: “It will be rapidly distributed. ... They’re going to see it very soon.” — news conference Saturday.
THE FACTS: An imminent payment is unlikely, if one comes at all.
TRUMP, on whether he was expecting legal challenges to his orders: “I didn’t say that. No, no. I didn’t say that.” — news conference Saturday.
THE FACTS: He did say it.
At his news conference a day earlier in Bedminster, New Jersey, Trump said: “Yeah, probably we get sued, but people feel that we can do it.”
———
TRUMP: “Over the next two weeks, I’ll be pursuing a major executive order requiring health insurance companies to cover all preexisting conditions for all customers. That’s a big thing. ... This has never been done before.” — news conference Friday.
THE FACTS: No executive order is needed to protect people with preexisting medical conditions because “Obamacare” already does that and it’s the law of the land. If Trump persuades the Supreme Court to overturn the Affordable Care Act as unconstitutional, it’s unclear what degree of protection an executive order would offer in place of the law.
TRUMP: “Our vets are very special. We passed Choice, as you know — Veterans Choice ... And they’ve been trying to get that passed for decades and decades and decades, and no president has ever been able to do it. And we got it done.” — news conference Saturday.
THE FACTS: This is one of Trump’s most frequent falsehoods. He’s incorrect that he achieved Veterans Choice when other presidents couldn’t. President Barack Obama achieved it in 2014. Trump expanded it.

Throw in the fact that there are no executive orders, only "executive memorandum ".
Ain't worth the paper it's printed on.

Nancy Pelosi hit the nail on the head when she called Trump a skunk.
He leaves a foul smell and people reeling in disgust wherever he goes.

From what I’ve read, the federal portion of unemployment is coming from FEMA (And maybe other similar funding sources). Nothing like bleeding disaster relief funding dry right as hurricane season is revving up.
The remaining $100 is supposed to be coerced out of state governments, many of whom are likely broke in part due to pandemic response efforts.

Greg Except what he wanted them to do, save the American worker. The message was important. The actual execution and follow-up, meh, that's for others to sort out and deal with. Victory has been declared, accepted and celebrated. |
