WATCH: Liberals Are Probably Fuming Over These Seven Words Trump Uttered in Rejecting COVID Bill; Trump Demands Congress Add $2000 Direct Payments To Bill
By Townhall. . .Trump was not happy with the amount in the relief checks. He wants a bill with $2,000 payments and has threatened a veto. Yes, I like the veto threat, but it’s probably a symbolic gesture. Trump could whip out the pen, but these current spending and relief bills passed with veto-proof majorities. Should this happen, it will be overridden. I don’t know. I’m not a big fan of harping on moral or symbolic victories. Yet, in his video address regarding these bills, Trump brought the 2020 election into focus, warning that the next administration will have to handle COVID relief, and that administration might be him.
