  1. “Asked what people who are concerned about paying rent should do while they wait on a check from Steve Mnuchin, Trump said he thinks ‘landlords will take it easy’. #MemoToJared

  2. Trump doesn’t own much real estate between his ears. He’s the “Wartime President” that believes individual states should go to war…alone. Watching him would be entertaining if he managed a Costco produce department instead of producing chaos in the White House.

    1. The approach is not so different than the Confederate States of America took in its war against the United States. Everything from railroad track gauge to munitions standards were regulated by the individual states which led to serious logistical and supply problems . . .and we see how it turned out for them. Note also the CSA had trouble obtaining foreign financing for the war effort as a good number of states had defaulted upon foreign held debt in the years leading up to the war.

  3. President Amateur Bonehead now trying to take credit for leading the charge to increase funding and save lives, which he will no doubt take all the credit for. While he never stops touting his limiting of travel from China, his first funding-related move was to request emergency money for faster wall building. That is not a joke, After being rebuffed, he initallly requested only $1.25 billion in emergency virus funding, then had to be convinced by his fellow Republic enablers to ask for twice that much, before the House overruled and delivered $8.3 billion instead. These actual numbers clearly demonstrate how indadequate his understanding and response to all of this has been.
