As Congress Fails to Help Americans, Trump Steps Up

 

Last week Congress failed to come up with a plan to help the American people during the COVID-19 Pandemic.  Perhaps more specifically, Democrats in Congress failed to help, propose, or approve a plan to help Americans.  Republicans offered nine plans.  Democrats refused to approve all nine.  The President decided that those hurting can not wait, so he stepped up for Americans

A short time ago today, President Trump signed Executive Orders to give a tax holiday on payroll taxes starting in August through the end of the year for people making less than $100,000 a year - perhaps that part upset the Democrats in Congress since they continue to make $150,000+ a year in salaries as the rest of the nation suffers.  President Trump also issued unemployment benefits to extend through the end of the year.  Those benefits will be $400 instead of the previous $600, but when it comes to a "Do-Nothing" Congress giving $0, $400 beats $0 all day! 

While the President is rushing toward the fight and rushing to help Americans, Democrats have already said they will file a lawsuit.  Yes, you read that right - the Democrats are going to file a lawsuit to stop the President's Executive Order.  This means they want those people making less than $100,000 a year to continue to pay payroll taxes.  They want people unemployed to get $0 from the Federal Government.  

Make no mistake here - The Democrats in Congress want you, making less than $100,000 a year, and you the unemployed to continue to suffer during this pandemic.  Understand this, while Republicans have tried in Congress, Democrats have blocked them.  Now the President is taking actions, and Democrats are going to file a lawsuit....they are actually going to file a lawsuit that says you can not have a tax break in the middle of a National Crisis and that the unemployed and hurting Americans can not have additional unemployment befits.  Are you getting this?  Do you understand that the Democrat party is placing politics over your family and your well-being?  If you can not see it, then you need to WAKE UP and pay attention. 

As Democrats prepare to file lawsuits to stop your tax relief and stop your unemployment,  President Trump standing up for you said this in response to the threats, "You always get sued." 

In November, remember that when the chips were down and times were tough, President Trump had your back.  While Congress rakes in $150,000+ salaries a year, the President taking a salary of $0 stepped up for you in what has been the darkest hour for some Americans.
