    I’ll bet money that he’s going to actually try to do this.

    Remember when Congress voted to send Americans assistance checks during the pandemic — and Trump plastered his name all over those checks for shameless political points?

    This guy 100% wants to send out “Trump” checks again.

      Yeah, I think he both really wants to do it, and at the same time is absolutely lying about having done any actual work or planning to make it happen. Trump love nothing more than to just hang stuff out there, knowing full well he’ll capture the news cycle whether or not anything actually has a chance of happening here. But literally the entire country is now governed based on a large group of cronies and enablers trying to interpret his stray demented thoughts, so I’m not sure what we expected.
