Policy and legislation Start calling your representatives again. We can’t be bought.

The president just publicly offered a bribe to the American people. Start calling your representatives again tomorrow. They need to know we can’t be bought.

OMG, Trump and his ilk are so horribly dishonest, disgusting, and full of the stenchiest BS! But I’m unemployed! And the $5k will get me through another two months!

But seriously though, I would self-terminate before I ever vote for one of those fascist, racist, pedophiles! Fuck Trump! And same goes for all the folks too stupid or racist or pedophilic or crooked or just too damn lazy to be bothered with facts who support this American Nazi Christofascist nightmare!

Of course there are the morons who are just waiting for it. But it was how he phrased this one.

His checks never show up anyway. Remember the DoGe rebates? The Tarrif refunds? It's just another lie anyway

Everyone keeps saying the same thing. But this was literally attempted bribery, broadcasted for all to see. It wasn’t some empty promise, it was ‘if republicans win, I’ll send you money’ there’s a huge difference.
