Trump says he would not veto coronavirus aid legislation that included funding for the U.S. Postal Service, which he earlier said was a sticking point in negotiations

“If we could agree to a bill, the overall bill, which is obviously a much bigger number than just the post office, that would be fine,” Trump told reporters at the White House.

Negotiations between Republicans and Democrats for coronavirus aid have broken down. Trump has said, without evidence, that having universal mail-in ballots for the Nov. 3 presidential election would lead to fraud. Earlier in the day Trump said demands from Democrats that a bill include federal aid for the post office and funding for the election have become major sticking points in negotiations.

“The items are the post office and the $3.5 billion for mail-in voting,” he told Fox Business Network, saying Democrats want to give the post office $25 billion.

He lies, he said he would. Guy can't pick a lane, desperate for attention now...🤣🤣🤣

He doesn’t have to block anything. His administration has already moved over 800 mail sorting machines so mail will be slowed and voting and vote counting will be severely impacted

Oh okay, everything’s fine then because this man would never lie

Because he knows Mitch won’t make it get to Trump’s desk.

He's so full of shit!

Sometimes he doesn’t agree with what he thinks 🤔

He can say that because the Senate has left DC. There won’t be a bill to sign.

He and the mrs.. requested mail in ballots,,, such hypocrisy..

Say it or not.

Trump ,you are right. Universal mail- in voting would be unlimited fraud. People should apply for absentee ballots where necessary.

Supported...

Trump’s word is worthless

Then pass a clean USPS bill!

sedakennedy More lies.

What? He's been saying the opposite all week. I still say Louis Dejoy will still sabotage the mail in ballots no matter how much money they get.

He lies, he said he would. Guy can't pick a lane, desperate for attention now...🤣🤣🤣

They decided to go on vacation instead of trying to make a deal.

I keep on asking... why are Americans so obsessed with their fucking happy meal combos? Every piece of legislation doesn’t have to be ‘packaged’ 1 Corona relief Y/N 2 USPS funding Y/N 3 WH garden Y/N 4 New fighter jets Y/N It’s gridlock every damn time

He knows he won't have to since he's got his GOP goonies led by MoscowMitch to make sure it never passes the Senate...

Except he already said he would.

LIAR! The 20,000 and 1 lie he has told in his administration.

LIAR AMERICA. DONT BUT IT!

How many people have you seen gasping for air (either online or in person) while a global pandemic is in effect caused by a respiratory disease?

Looks like he had a little conference with Grim Reaper Moscow Mitch. Ain't no bill goin' nowhere. Too bad, you lowly tax payers. It's your money but so what? You all can just suffer. Mitch has the reins and he don't care who dies under his watch. At all.

Too bad he is a compulsive LiarInChief though.

So. Its just another lie.

Liar!!

EVIL MONSTER

lying man lies about lies all the time,but promises not to lie

That just means he'd find a different excuse to veto it.

HE IS A SPECIAL KIND OF STUPID!!Sorry, I know that’s a bit mean but FFS!!Lads, I’m off to bed finally, see ye on the other side!!!ThisIsGalway

Liar

Because he knows McConnell is not going to hold a vote in the first place.

The postal service is one of the last good jobs that doesnt require a 100k education.

F the USPS. Loses $9B a year. Not worth it

Liar and MURDERER!!!!

This is a terrible take. That’s not at all what he said. He is basically saying he wants to force people to go to a polling place risking their lives to vote because there is a pandemic he refuses to confront. He is actively sabotaging the election.

Ironic that he got his own absentee ballot today.

he says one thing for the cameras but what he really does is what matters. n this case it’s NOTHING to HELP Americans financial suffering. Total heartless loser.

Somebody finally got it through Trump's thick skull that holding up a stimulus bill so he can screw over the post office will not go over well with voters.

zipillinois This guy lies every time he opens his mouth. Why bother reporting his words? realDonaldTrump

I thought absentee voting was the same as mail in voting same procedures?

'We're disappointed in senatemajldr's COVID relief offer but keeping Americans waiting is not helpful! Today we codify $1200 Stim Checks + $300 UI + Rent & Student Loan Moratorium. SenSchumer and I will work on more priorities later!' ~What I hope SpeakerPelosi says soon!

The Democrats have already agreed on a bill. They’ve already passed a bill. The GOP leadership is not even involved in negotiations. It’s Trump’s administration that cannot agree on a bill. Meet the Democrats half way and it’s done. It’s that easy.

And just when the senate goes on recess until September. What a coincidence 🙄

Sounds like realDonaldTrump is FAR MORE REASONABLE than Pelosi & Schumer. He cares more about the American People than they do...

If we can go to the grocery store every week-we can vote in person one time. People can still do absentee ballot. Why is everyone making a bid deal out of nothing?

Donald Trump Plots to Destroy ShoweringDonald Trump, intent on hastening the already quite imminent destruction of our planet, has now set his weasel eyes on showerheads, of all things, saying that the current requirement that only allows 2.5 gallons to flow per minute isn’t adequate to thoroughly soak his corpus. Is that really the problem, though? Or have all those years of dyeing his skin to give it that radioactive glow shellacked it into a sort of water-resistant shell? Probably the only real way to get the grime off is to dip him in a vat of hydrochloric acid and give him a good scrub with a toilet brush if any of his handlers want to try that. \n DAW By iamcardib & theestallion 'I said certified freak seven days a week Dry-ass wussy, make that combover game weak, woo' And makeup.
