President Trump says he's open to allowing enhanced federal unemployment benefits without states paying part of the cost, despite his Saturday memorandum

Under the memorandum the President signed Saturday, a state must agree to enter into a financial arrangement with the federal government for any unemployed person living there to get any of the additional benefits. The federal government would require states to pick up the tab for 25% of the $400 additional benefit each person may able to receive weekly in additional aid.

"Read More"So you know, they may be, they'll pay nothing in some instances or maybe they'll -- a little bit like the National Guard, like the National Guard, as you know. Sometimes we'll pay all of it depending on the tragedy, or whatever it may be, the disaster," he said."Sometimes the state will pay 40%, 25%, 10% or nothing -- depending on how it works out.

The Dumpster will say anything that he thinks is will get him elected. America, are you paying attention ?!? Vote him out !!!

Yep he is a scare tactic bully who needs a time out; got me losing sleep 🤔🤑😭

Governor brashear, it’s not Trumps fault your state is corrupt and your unemployment system doesn’t work...that’s your job to fix it. Kentucky should have kept Bevin

Thank you Mr President always you're looking at your people's needs

Trump's executive decision was awesome. The dems want 600 repubs want 200. He went to the middle. Yet dems aren't happy because they did not get there non covid agendas in a bill. Then dems will take this to court to delay funds to the american people. Media + democratic = satan

States are already paying for PPE, testing and the constant cleaning of schools. Donald Trump thinks money grows on trees. GOP

Get the left to drop the garbage demands and maybe we can get something done.

Election gifts. What comes next?🤔

All this to not pay Americans 1,200 😂😂 perhaps congress will pass something in October that way trump can look good and get re-elected ..genius ...

Does he even have any idea of what he signed?

That's because he's compassionate and willing to do the job states are incapable to do.

... trump is trying to break state budgets to inhibit state funding for voter registraition and mail in vote activities

It’s funny all the pictures of Trump show him working, the pictures of Biden show him biking or sitting in his Corvette.

Congress holds the purse strings. Trump's EO cut the added unemployment and payroll taxes aren't going away. Neither is social security. SpeakerPelosi senatemajldr POTUS Kick people when they're down. COVID19 VoteTrumpOut JoeBiden

He said SOME states...fix your headline!!!! AND each state has to apply. Fucking joke...

He will announce his decision in two weeks.

He should have said that from the start. God! Is it November yet?

So SOME unemployed Americans get enhanced benefits. It sounds like Trump is back peddling and moving into the Democrats area. States would gladly pay if Trump had provided them pandemic relief, but he didn't, well at least not the democratic states. Divide the country.

Our President being flexible and trying to give the people what they need. Bunch of liars at CNN trying to race bait, lie, cover up, for the democrats. America is paying attention CNN!!!

It is not my fault I am beautiful It is not my fault I am humble It is not my fault I can not insult like maket woman It is not my fault all the guys like me It is not my fault nobody likes u It is not my fault that I am gentle IStanNengi IStanNengi

Trump looks after American People of all races, genders and ages. The Democrats only look after their bank accounts and corruption.

ANYTHING to buy MORE VOTES!

Fake news calling President Trump executive orders confusing, what’s confusing FAKE News That he stood up and protected the American people. Trump loves to help American not illegals. Cover that on your fake network!

ItIsWhatItIs TrumpHasNoPlan RepublicansForBiden

Trump doesn't have the Constitutional authority to allocate federal funds, so...

If George soro is funding terrorist groups like antifa and black lives matter then so is obama they are working together for one world power

Speaking for the states again?

Please help me! My name is Lin donglong, an employee of China telecom fuzhou branch. Company manager huang fei (communist party of China) organized the leadership of the gang of evil forces brutal persecution: surveillance location, insult,abuse, framed to take nude photos of me

Will someone please tell BLM terrorists how many cops have been shot vs how many blacks by cops? It’s not even close. It’s the cops being hunted. Not the other way around

Yes because dumb fuck realDonaldTrump loves opening his mouth before thinking

And Who has Control over the Money Again?

Pushing executive orders as significant that do nothing more than tell states to pay for what the government could pay for looks pretty stupid, especially when you're signing them in front of a bunch of onlooking millionaires who paid $350,000 or more to join your country club.

is it that realDonaldTrump has not done anything good in the USA ? your media attack on the POTUS is becoming irritating!

Photo op Period

This ☝️is your headline CNN? This is the best you could to to inform and summarize a bait and switch scheme? Your job is report. If the story is too complex to state in a short headline without missing the essence....then use MORE WORDS. Our Republic is at stake. Step up!!

Could those be RED States.

People on the left are amazing, when facts are not on their side they just lie!!!

He doesn’t care if these “orders” work or not! He just wants to lie that he “solved” the problem, just like he lies about solving the problems with the Trump Virus, immigration, health care, trade wars, infrastructure, etc., etc., etc.!

straight forward socialism ... just sayin'

I love the way you Can't Nothing News just take's every word he say's and go with it with hate. He will win the election cause you stupid Nothing News doesn't look up fact's. So, with that being said do your job of journalism instead of saying he is a racist or hate's everyone.

What a bunch of bull, then you find out the fine print and all that meant nothing. Vote Blue!

The impeached, failing trump is desperate. That would be a good thing if it weren’t so terrifying.

Donald Trump is a President that Produces Results not Excuses. This is why the voting American People love him and CNN- Chinese News Network hates him. Trump 2020!

Fools always go back on their word.....

Donald Trump talks out of both sides of his mouth.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., on Sunday heaped the blame on Congress’ failure to pass another coronavirus stimulus bill on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's “personal wish list

His words have no meaning. Stop egging him on by asking questions you know he will lie about.

All the republican states have money for this program. Just saying.

Close your eyes and imagine another four years of this stupidity. He will drive everyone to the brink of insanity with his indecisive presidency. He has no idea what he’s doing. He’s losing his mind.

possibly those states that don't have state income tax? NYS and California are screwed

He is just beging for Vote2020 🤣🤣🤣poor realDonaldTrump he desn’t know what else to do.. nytimes TIME Telemundo NYDailyNews

Such a flip flopper! He opens his mouth, nonsense comes out! A day or two later, correction time!!

Can't you make a statement, 1 day & not say, the opposite the next day?

Trump pulled a “ gotcha Nancy.”

Payroll tax funds social security! Trump wants to cut trillions of dollars from Medicare, medical and social security!

This what Trump does. He makes an Executive Action with no thought behind it but a headline. Everything he verbally announced doesn't match what was written and is generally not workable. More nonsense of bluster and nothing else. The emperor has no clothes.

Little Donnie trying to buy votes. Keep in mind, this would not have been necessary had he done a proper job.

His making everybody crazy 🤪🤣🤣🤣

That’s big of him.

since it’s illegal anyway, does it really matter?

What an absolute disaster this clown is.

More executive orders that will go nowhere. More PR from the idiot in chief.

It is foreseeable that extortion or quid-pro-quo w states will be forthcoming from Trump & this admin. Trump doesn’t do out of the goodness of his heart. There is always self-serving motivation. ABC CNN MSNBC ChrisCuomo sethmeyers StephenAtHome ExecutiveOrder

Typical. He backs down the next day every time he makes one of these pronouncements!

He absolutely had no idea what he was actually signing.

Desperation at it's finest.

Up is down. Down is up.

How about the deal where he will make you repay delayed withholding tax unless you elect him? He should be jailed NOW!!!!

Trump has no plan.

IDIOT and not even a useful one!!

By tomorrow morning he'll say he never said it, he was kidding, it was reported as fake news. I can't keep up anymore with all the shit he spews.

P.O.S.... That is all... TrumpIsANationalDisgrace

Instead of Mt. Rushmore maybe we should name a morgue after Trump. What state should get the Trump Covid Morgue? TrumpKillsAmericans

Must be his republican governors complained about $100 a week.

Let's keep in mind he doesn't know what he's doing. And its all a stunt to get (don't make me say it) re-elected.

Please Resign 🙏🙏🙏🙏realDonaldTrump

TrumpMadeInChina

That's a good thing because the tens of millions of Americans who are unemployed consequential to Trump's inept inability to create a National response to curb the Pandemic have been out of work long enough now that many States' UI benefits reserves are bankrupt now.

It is a lie.

Because none of his executive orders mean shit. They are just yet another way for Trump to make excuses and act like he’s “working” when he spends all weekend every weekend playing golf when people are dying by the thousands. They mean nothing and are worth nothing.

BULLSHIT!

When you're doing nothing, you can always promise to double your output.

He is like my principal, one day he suspends me, then calls me back to help him with Google Docs

Because, shocker alert, he has no idea what he’s saying or doing.

I think he just enjoys signing his fuckin name.... makes him feel important, i guess.... what a Losernotmypresident and never has been a “real” human.

As usual no friggin idea what he’s doing. Just spit balling.

Shows realDonaldTrump was told 1) this isn't a dictatorship, 2) the funds that would have been drawn from fema actually adversely affect states that have a propensity to vote Republican, and 3) he is desperate to win support from GOP that would be better to not appoint him.

He doesn’t have the authority to do it to begin with. So now that he’s put forth a phony memorandum to his executive order it can appear as if it was his idea. And he will try and claim that the unemployment was extended because of him. Andhe will expect us all to thank him.

Bullshit be bullshit.

SAVETHECHILDREN

This man does not understand how government works. He doesn't understand the separate duties & responsibilities of each branch of government & worst of all what his branch can/cannot do. All these Executive Orders he has wasted time w/ are things he doesnt have the power to do.

Yeah, he also said he would have a healthcare plan. Then he -Trump plagiarized Obamacare pre-existing conditions . -Melania plagiarized Michelle Obama's speech. Where would the Trump's be with the Obama's?

Trump signing a bunch of blank pages and calling it an Executive Order, check with your owners manual, you can't do that. SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer sue his butt, and make him sign your bill intact,

If Trump thinks he can have himself shine by having the GOP hold up helping the people by stalling a deal with democrats and act as if he's saving America he would have to give a lot more help to the people to equal the democrats plan.

I told you so., do not pack yet, wait for tonight’s tweet from Trump,he has no idea what was in those orders, he read it as given, repeated three times(watch the video) and still doe not know what he said,his eyes were on Camera and ratings,he is a Pres’e’Dent’..crooked by nature

distinct problem with his promises is its bs, its the same as the border wall when he said mexico would share the bill, and u know how that ended with trump lying and mexico not paying a cent

Once again Trump demonstrates he lacks the traits necessary to be a good leader. There is absolutely nothing admirable about this man, nothing at all.

If that’s true than give the American people $600 a week to survive , Donald you spend more than that just hanging out justsaying

This is a President

All that..but the one thing they all agreed on, the stimulus of $1200 isn't happening...i don't get it realDonaldTrump

President Trump says a lot of stuff

Indecisive. Wishy-washy. Half baked “plans.” He’d sell his own kids if he thought doing so might help him win re-election.

Incompetence at its finest!!!’n

Who cares. It's not his call.

And pigs fly!

Tweet this until November please.

‘ cause he’s not standing in front of his people. Trump base Those people in NJ at Trump’s club? Those are his people, not you. The 350,000 per year fee...those are Trump’s people. You? He’s using you as props. He’s a guy from Queens, he could care less about you all!

So as usual, his EOs are not really orders cause he changes them afterwards. No one in the WH, including Trump, reads them or knows what they mean. If chaos is the goal, then success!

Trump is a con artist and fake

He lives in a fiction of his own making.

Looks like our President is really trying to take care of our working citizens that are looking to find employment field. What do you think CNN Trump is a great Man that cares about all our citizens. Trump 2020.

Only reason for doing this...Help the red states, fuck the blue states.

What can I do !!!!!!!!!!!!. I will try this

realDonaldTrump is so wishy washy.
