President Donald Trump on Sunday signed four executive orders, one of which would provide $400 a week in federal enhanced unemployment benefits after Democrats and the White House were unable to reach an agreement on a Coronavirus stimulus relief bill this week.
The other three orders he signed include a payroll tax holiday for Americans earning less than $100,000 a year, as well as extending an eviction moratorium and deferring student loan payments. When asked by a reporter why $400 instead of the previous $600, Trump responded: “This is the money they need, this is the money they want, this gives them a great incentive to go back to work."
I hope i get stimulus check 2nd
Anything good for Americans it appears is always challenged by the Democratic party. Or should I say Socialist part?.
m
in an economic World where How much you spend determines a countries value then yes making more new money is logical just give everyone 400$ a month and an extra 200$ if you work.
Look ... he is starting to grow horns. I can see this from Oz. If you don't take care of this man, you will say goodbye to the new experiment ...
The problem is the Republicans can’t agree with the Democratic to pay 600 dollars a week Democratic are for the people Americans open your eyes this President is cutting your benefits he doesn’t care about the Americans people
Trump doesn’t have the power to over rule the Congress. This is a hoax
What are 'Executive Orders'? We need more education.
Think he needs some more flags 🙄
And it really isn't $400. It is $300 from feds and the other $100 from states!
m8 u7
Defund CNN!
You're aware that the program to send out this unemployment money doesn't exist, that it needs to be created from scratch by all of the states, and that this will take months, right?
When have legality, morality, commonsense or honesty ever stopped Trump?! Or even slowed him down? 😡 And don't forget his 'gift' for compulsive lying--my fave subset of that is taking credit for others' work e.g. covering pre-existing conditions was first done by *Obama*!
Ploy to woo Americans and corporation to his ticket. Not out of love for Americans or patriotism. He did it for himself. Don’t forget!
TOO LATE! SCOTUS says they couldn't undo EO DACA which is illegal and unconstitutional so the legal challenges expected from corrupt SpeakerPelosi are BULL$SHIT!
I’m sorry, wasn’t it the Republicans that kept saying this handout was making people lazy ? Which one is it ( flip flop)
Nobody gets the $400 unless the states come up with a hundred of it. The states, due to Covid don’t have it.
He still doesn’t get that he’s not a king and can’t just do what he wants
Good news on those legal challenges ... SCOTUS already ruled EOs are a-okay. Gotta love karma coming for John Roberts right up in his face like this.
So the money strapped states need to put in $100, so it is really $300. That's how they work they make it sound good until you read the small print.
It's a scam if you read the actual details he signed.
It’s a stunt realDonaldTrump only doing that because it’s election time.
Stop saying he's offering $400 I'm benefits! He's reducing benefits by 33%
I believe GovHowardDean’s headline is more accurate for this signing.
Am I wrong to think that unless the tax code is rewritten that the tax will be due when you file your 1040?
Bankrupting SS like his casinos.
nice

Eliminating Social Security tax would be a huge win for young people. Young people are paying into Social Security, a pyramid scheme that will be bankrupt / insolvent decades before young people would reach the age to receive benefits.
He signs more shit than he does shit. Worst president ever!!!
We have a President who doesn’t know (or care) how the Government works. Instead of working With Congress, he tries to usurp their powers. So then the Courts are involved. And who is suffering while Trump plays games? Who can’t buy food or pay rent? TrumpIsKillingAmericans
guys, it may not be as much as you want but its something...be thankful...
Can’t wait to see the liberals sue Trump because he gave the people what they needed🙄. How absurd is this getting
The Mad Libs on here are glorious. 🤣 Trump4EVA
Just the government trying to buy us off. Stop the welfare and put people to work!!
Good luck with suing realDonaldTrump over putting the people first! Losers
This is a ridiculous headline! We need you to do better!!!
Say the truth!Tell America how this affects SS & Medicare! msnbc CBSNews NBCNews AC360 donlemon JoeNBC morningmika ffweekend PressSec seanhannity The last 3 will lie & the crazy part is it affects them & their family & friends. They know the depend on that to get by!
The police in Sweden: Killers are the real victims and the police needs escort of police when they go home? Sweden is fantastic, not!!!!!!!
He just cut $200 from what dems wanted and his magats are happy! He just cut so social security and Medicare with payroll tax that only helps businesses and doesn’t help the unemployed!
Shame on cnn.i told you yoy cnn is the enemy of the people and nytimes
I'm through. The BrainDeadTrumpSupporters can claim victory. If you StupidFuckingMorons really think our country is better off with the TrumpLawlessFuckingDerangedLunatic, then have at it. GetSickAndDie IDontReallyGiveAShit ImSickOfThisShit. PeaceOut.
This man is a fool.
Instead of working with Congress to pass a REAL bill to fight the Trump Virus, the “great negotiator” decided to issue one of his semi-legal proclamations to simultaneously bankrupt the Social Security & Medicare programs and many state governments!
Yes now anyone that couldn't afford an iPhone before now can, sit back and watch Apple stock go up.. In 5 year the dollar will be worth nothing
When you sign things that are outside your scope of power then yes there will be legal challenges. trump is trying to take power from the Congress & that will not be allowed to happen. Putting on a show & signing these papers means nothing. He is not taking our SS away from us.
WTF ? seniorsagainsttrump ChristiansAgainstTrump TrumpIsKillingSocialSecurity
Another covert attack on Democratic states! And look how good I am! My understanding was the federal government was there to help out when states could not achieve an outcome for the population. Security means social as well as military!
Trump is disgraceful! A true scoundrel! 😈 How dare he help ordinary people? 🤣
Why do we even have Congress when the President can circumvent Congress by executive order America is no longer a democracy it's a dictatorship. With a dictator named Trump. Wait till the next President uses Trump's precedent setting actions to limit the 2nd Amendment and more.
UnConstitutional, it’s all for appearance sake. Congress controls the money. Another lame attempt at making himself look better before the election.
What else do you expect from the left. They dont want the Economy to improve. That is working against their hope to get a Demented Biden elected.
Good Job but late. Probably, Americans are not going to elect him again after many incident happen in country.
Stop taking the bait! Even $100 would need to come from the states. So even if this was constitutional it would be 50% less benefits to the unemployed.
boycottamazon cancelprime when CNN will investigate how amazon steal seller information and kick them to sell seller's product under their amazon basics?Where is ftc ? JeffBezos is not paying 1 dollar tax but We pay 20% of salary.ALSO STEALZONE DON'T release SELLERS money
So avg rent is $1463 you tell me to stay home for a BS virus u give $1200.I still have a car note, light, gas, water and food fucker... Oh my job I held for 10 years shut down because you killed the economy.President 🍊 u fucking this country up just like u did your businesses
No matter what! Nothing positive EVER from CNN. LOL
In America you can only legislate by executive orders. The system is so corrupted by special interests that nothing gets done. Except making sure the military has what it needs. There’s almost 100% bipartisan support on that
realDonaldTrump What a fucking joke! Keep the $400 and get the hell out of office IdiotInChief
Democrats has done nothing for us. They are a pain and thorns of working people. POTUS is right to intervene.
Honesty? IQ 45
The Democrat Party has lost their minds.
Dems at least the president did something for the American people Democrats request were ridiculous you failed America
Putin approved news.
Of course the Democrats will do anything to stop Trump! The Democrats couldn’t sit down and make deal !
My favorite POTUS meme!
Breaking news!!!! Thank you realDonaldTrump Mr President you really care about us thank u 😊 even though you get so much hate you still come up victorious 🙏🙏🙏🙏
is Trump's claim that he will Write off the Tax Holiday money not a Bribe to people to vote for him when the US should be making the money available now to help people. He has also been very generous telling people HE is giving them $100 that will be paid by someone else
The CCP and Fauci have long been taking hydroxychloroquine to prevent the virus, but they have blocked news from all over the world. Even CNN reporters have been deceived. Seeing that the death rate of the people in Taiwan is zero they have this drug.
Executive order unnecessary in leadership of a bigger state!
You guys SUCK at writing proper, correct headlines.
I can’t wait to see Democrats challenge this in the courts. Not only will they lose in the courts but they lose in the court of public opinion. Democrats have lost it and CNN is running interference. You shameful cowards.

Trump2020
Now I'm Trump 2020
Trump cut unemployment from $600 to $400 but gave the rich 2.7 Trillion in tax cuts to rich and Donors. TrumpHasNoShame
Correction, $300 and $100 from the states.
Which he can’t legally do
Open your er yes people
Wow wake up pelosi and you Democrats that supports her. I'm a 40 year Democrat at 58 yrs old enough is enough please speak up my parents God love them both are embarrassed, and so should you. Thank you and God bless us all 💓
Had to add in the “but” at the end, huh? 😂
What in the pen and phone is this about?
Gotcha, you POS liberal Dems. Let's see you try to stop this and come out unscathed. Thank you, realDonaldTrump
Who’s gonna take this to court.
Always fights for the American people while our Marxist democrats do all they can to screw us
Abject idiots in Congress just failed again. Democrats offer to take $1T dollars out of the Covid relief funding request. How can a funding request be reduced like that? Unless it’s an unbudgeted slush fund? Any chance you society writers CNNPolitics could ask about that?
DACA was an E.O. so this should be ok.
And according to a crack reporter, Karen, he only used one of the four pens.
Art of the Deal, no legal challenge, but are Welcomed. Well Played realDonaldTrump
Brilliant move by the President. Shows he cares about the people. And when the Dems fight it, that gets spun into they don't care about the people even more than it's already spun. The Dems lost by not compromising with the GOP.
Democrats Imploding in 3...2....1...
For Christ's sake, CNN, 3 of them are mere memoranda--they're letting senile Grandpa play-act; the only EO among them actually REDUCES benefits from $600 to $400 and uses illegal monies to achieve it. Do your job. We've already seen what happens when you don't.
Of course the Dems want to challenge this. Why do they care about people who are trying to make ends meet. All they care is power.
Repubs in Senate set up Trump for the spike. +1 For Trump Biden's lead will continue to fall - 'Come on Man Gimme a Break!'
Now Trump can be king, to do anything he wish - a dictator like his boss Putin.
He’s breaking the law to cut your Social Security.TeamPelosi SpeakerPelosi Why is he so demented!? LiarInChief
Awesome leadership
by his own party? Lol
Ya think?
Trump just cut unemployment and undermined SS and medicare
Where was the dems outrage when Obama famously said he had a pen and a phone Hypocrits all
Wow❤
You forgot that he said he would permanently defund Social Security by making the payroll tax cut permanent.
Well at least he giving us something
Little prediction. None of this will actually do anything to help people in need.
POTUS thank you sir
But that's not really what this EO does, is it?
Of course the DoNothingDemocrats would sue! They don’t give a $hit about everyday Americans, it’s all political theater with them....
Basic 101 economics..give the money direct to those that will spend it..essential with what you guys are experiencing at the moment. The Dems should really back this one.
过去君主信奉迷信的话，堕入茅屋而死，这是事实吗？🤭
Congress has the purse strings! How long does the $400.00 last
CNN somehow thinks DACA is legal but benefits to Americans is not
CNN mad that citizens and not illegals get benefits
People will literally stop spending leaving the economy stagnant 💯
He has no authority to disperse money. His '$400' unemployment money is a LIE. And the 'legal challenge' is that it's ILLEGAL. The money has to be appropriated by Congress and the GOP Senate refuses to take action to help ordinary Americans. This is a CAMPAIGN STUNT.
One word. DACA
Hazard pay!
CNN don’t forget states pay 25%, please report exactly because it sounds that wow trump is very generous!
'cause the first one worked so well
zz zz
Because it was the job of congress and the Senate. The failure of onour elected officials. SHAME ON ALL OF THEM.
No one complained when Obama did the same thing.
Is it true that the poltergeist supernatural phenomenon happens?😲
Thanks to Justice John Roberts who approved the DACA case. Trump has the executive authority to do what he did today and will not lose in court. Justice John Roberts can be thanked for laying this out for Trump today. Which is probably why CNN did not televise the event today.
You bitch and complain he does nothing. Now you are bitching and complaining when he is helping. You are the people if Trump said here is the winning Lotto ticket, you probably wouldn't take it because Trump gave it to you. Unreal
CNN employees people like Acosta and expects us to take them seriously. 🤣🤣🤣
Is it true that Matthew Goodwin in 2017 ate his own book paper during a live broadcast of the British news?
_Mama_Doc
Liberals right now:
Of course the Dems want to challenge something that will help the American people.
Is it true that you solved the mystery of Shikada 3301 with an outguess? 🤔
People are going hungry and losing their homes. If Congress won’t act, the president must act!
Another con for people to fall far democratic wanted to give you 600 and 1200 and Moscow Mitch refuse to pass the bill
He is making up for Congress’ indecision. Someone has to do the job. You can attack him later, let him help the people first, then he can take all the blame as usual.
How much money does Trump businesses save from payroll tax holiday? Amazon? How does it help the unemployed?
So he slashed unemployment benefits and funding for Medicare/Social Security, enacted two measures with bipartisan support (student loan interest and eviction deferment) and is going to pass this off as his benevolence 🙄
There will only be legal challenges if Democrats hate Americans and don't want them to have relief during the pandemic. Which is true. So, I guess there will be legal challenges.
To bad congress couldn’t get something done like adults, they act like children. People need led there help and they failed.
He thinks that EO's are how you govern. He doesn't have the power to do what he says. Congress holds the power to the purse. Not President Bonehead.TrumpIsAnIdiot TrumpIsALaughingStock TrumpIsNotWell
Bring it on useless DC swamp politicians! Americans are in need of help. Thank god for this president and his willingness to act.
So he basically just said: I'll give you all some of your money back for a few months, and if you elect me I MIGHT not force you to give it back later. Sorry, can't buy your way out of this one.
Canada gave $2000 to every Canadian impacted by Covid-19! Donnie is a Twit!
Horse and pony show !
Democrats panicking
TrumpVirus
They want additional things like an FBI building🤔🤔🤔
If congress would stop acting like 5yr olds on a playground, maybe this would not be necessary. You people are clueless!
_Mama_Doc Just be honest. Own what you’re really mad about: can’t win an election without massive fraud. No one wants what the Left is selling, so it’s got to be rammed forward by corruption.
Our hero. Darn that Senate.
If the Dems wanted to help the American people they would have! They will do nothing except play games prior to election. Trump 2020 CNN Fake News Never Watch CNN
What’s Congress going to let him do next? Let him sign an executive order making him president for life? Or maybe an executive order banning democrats from voting? He is unfit for office and out of control and they know it.
I don't see that being the solution that helps the American people. How about just get a deal done.
I hope Nance and Chuck realize that they can’t take America hostage with their crazy leftist ideology—America flag hating, taking away our guns, religion, and destroy history and the America way.
To all y’all complaining about this not being enough, get a job and get off Twitter😂
No $600.00? No Presidency! Goodbye.
The states had all kinds of executive orders and you all didn’t report like this. You just went a long with it and spend fear over this plandemic.
You put us here
Yeah so I hear he’s taking on big pharma to make meds more affordable for us. I guess he is a piece of crap for that too.
Forgive my ignorance, but exactly do the HHS and CDC with protection for people who are being evicted? Did I miss anything?
_Mama_Doc Oh like they were with O, one EO acronym DACA
While Democrats obstruct & tear shit down, realDonaldTrump acts and never lets YOU down! ✅Payroll tax holiday ✅Student loan relief ✅Moratorium on evictions ✅$400/week in unemployment benefits Democrats are LOSERS who are politicizing COVID19 instead of helping Americans!
Yes we'd expect the democrats to try anything to stop the American people from getting the relief they need. What a bunch of useless losers. Good thing President Trump cares about the people. Thank you realDonaldTrump
He also said, probably no checks for anyone, also !
عمرو دياب لما قابلتك على فيلم شاروخان
I love it.. Trump always finds a way to get shit done.
Baby pop Amazing grace. . .😔
TheDemocrats are losing their minds as POTUS signed four Executive Orders on CoronaVirus Relief ✅Extending Unemployment Benefits ✅Preventing Evictions ✅Extending Student Loan Relief ✅Payroll Tax Cuts Vow to sue as realDonaldTrump uses Obama's own precedents against them..
Hey, it’s not a law, it’s not enforceable. All budget must originate in the House. President to faithfully execute the laws, not make them.
What is the biggest mistake the western world had about CCP? Watch the two minutes video.

If trump gets it trumps way, why the heck do we need congress for then.
Why should people on unployment get any extra.... When I was on unployment we taught what we earned.... This is all bullshit extra money and free food ......
This won’t do anything
Let’s sue, but you all can’t agree on the package. Makes total sense. And all the complainers don’t cash the check. Send them back.
Is this where we're headed, if reelected.
If he wanted to boost his numbers, he should have gone with the 600.00 and a stimulus check. He doesn’t know what people want.
look at the dogs! $400 dollars is whats your all worth? hahahahahahaha embarrassing
Oh now you act like you care. Either way your good you are well off. It’s not just the unemployed that have been affected. It’s also children, people with mental illness and so much more
It’s not happening! This is for his dumbass base. Omg he needs to be gone!
'If I win the election you don't have to pay it back. If I lose, you have to pay it back'.. That has to be illegal!!! TrumpsCovidCoverup
Thanks DT for the increase in pay
Thank you realDonaldTrump!
Good
There would have been an extra $500 million to disperse, but OBAMA gave it to Iran. Also there would have been an extra $1 Billion, but BIDEN gave it to Ukraine on a qui pro quo deal. realDonaldTrump WhiteHouse PressSec
DERP
Its so cute when the orangutan we have as POTUS does actual presidential stuff instead of rigging civil rights, like the USPS, in an effort to postpone the election. 3 I love this country 3 MailTrumpOff
Newsflash for idiot Trump don’t know any state that can afford paying $100 UE benefits when they are all struggling to survive & make ends meet!
Thank you sir.. Viva Trump 💯, All Latinos support you✌
.-_
How would cnn know this ! They did not broadcast for the public to see! But you sure watched it somewhere! You just use your people for propaganda!
It’s a con! Where is the $ going to come from? Executive branch doesn’t have the power of the purse! DT bullshit payroll tax so called break is going to force Americans to pay huge tax debt later!
You are reporting this news as if you were forced, C'mon man.
Especially when his wife wears 4,500.00 dollar dresses
What about the stimulus checks to those who are working and need the money?
he just can't relate to people who can really use that 600hundred dollars, true people won't rush back to work,but most need it
Pay roll tax means nothing if u do not have a job , Donny think u ain’t helping those in need 👌🏼but vote Russia same as trump.
Excellent! Keep the country going and on the road to recovery.
Autocracy completed.
And it’s the same things the republicans were offering anyway.....this is not how democracy works.....sad day fir America.....we will remember in November!
To all the idiots on here crying about trump ....the govt has been printing money as needed since the petro dollar early seventies. What you think there’s gold to back that paper? I mean really the man has been in office less than 4 this shit has been going way before trump.
Congress has failed to do its job in supporting the American people in a time of crisis, every member of the house and the senate will feel the rage people have toward all the members of Congress this political infighting will stop very soon.
Any law Congress passes supersede a executive order.go ahead and sue Democrats and watch your entire party get wrecked in November
It means NOTHING. Only Congress can appropriate funds.
So barely enough to cover rent in most states.
realDonaldTrump apparently can beat the Democrat freak show at their political games! Tell us which monkeys are going to sue to stop needed help for the citizen voters ? chuckschumer and SpeakerPelosi are done as is MSM
Can't wait to see dems optics on sueing the President for helping Americans during a pandemic.😂
NYSLabor
Oh what?! This is BS
Where are the GOP congressmen and senators we elected? Do something about this so-called president!!!!
This is almost like Trump saying he’s gonna give Ev1 with curly hair $10k... then whenever it’s overturned, the curly haired people blame the Dems 🙄🙄🙄
Nicely done mr. President Trump. Because 400 dollars is better than nothing. Now we can pay some of our bills. Because if we the American people wait for Nancy Pelosi and her democratic party. We are out on the streets. Shame on those Democrats. 😷👎
CNN hates it when Trump does things that are good for Americans.
Why aren’t people happy about is? The Congress couldn’t agree on anything- he is giving something to people to help - why is this awful?
Beats what Congress is doing about it!
Lol. Everyone in this comment section is having a meltdown.
Trump just cut funding for social security and Medicare. We’re watching a dictator in action.
Does he really have that authority?
When you say Legal challenges you mean Dems trying to block it because they don’t get a cut from it. Dems hate the American people
He was so excited to use his new sharpies!🥳
Hg has j. I hon
That is against the law
$ 400 🙄
Legal challenges to stop Americans receiving benefits, tax breaks and to allow evictions?
世界動亂的製造者？

Hey, Crappy News Network: Have you reported Biden’s Blacks aren’t diverse but Hispanics are comments? You aren’t the Fake News, you’re the CRAPPY MEWS NETWORK because you don’t report any bad news about Democratics! Those poor 500 viewers are being cheated again!🤨
Okay, so reading the EO, it like it’s up to $44B . So $44B / $1200 federal assistance per month = coverage for 36M people for 1 month. This isn’t going to last long. And it’s a payroll tax deferral, not a holiday.
First decent thing he's done as president
one of the holdups is that Moscow Mitch wants businesses to be protected from COVID19 lawsuits.....so, companies can force people back to work, possibly WITHOUT proper safetu measures.....my sister in law and nephew were both required to go back to work after testing POSITIVE!
Why is he signing everything with a thick black marker? His hands would look bigger with a normal pen. Here he looks like my 6-year-old practicing 'serious homework'.
Everyone should understand most of these orders are useless, Congress controls the money and how it’s spent. The House passed there bill in May, the Senate waited until last week to negotiate. Why? Trump knows he is in trouble for his re-election bid, misusing his powers.
How was cutting unemployment benefits by $200 a week supposed to boost the economy?
I still remember when GOP was all over Obama for signing and governing by executive orders, my how things are different when there’s a Republican in the Oval Office.
God, nothing makes me vomit more than corrup left wing liberal democrats and all their anti trump supporters. You are all being used by the democrats and done even know it, when you do realise it will be too late! realDonaldTrump Trump2020
Eliminating payroll taxes is a winner. Thanks Trump.
Trump overthrows Congress and that's your headline? Where the f is Johnathan Swan when you need him?
I’m sure he’s happy to let the Dems write his next campaign ad. Sue away.
Dear thejointstaff when will OperationBenedictOrange finally be ordered? frontlinepbs ABC2020 NBC CBS ABCnews 11thHour
I’m old enough to remember this 👇🏼
He didnt help he just made it harder lol dems were fighting for 600 extended, trump just yankee re-gift candled us a cheaper candle instead of just extending what was already there
Goodbye Democracy, we had a good run.
How can he give monetary benefits to the public from an Executive order without Congress? Does he plan on cutting funding from something because last I check, Congress controls the nation's wallet. Stunting for positive press.
If this isn't a coup d'etat I don't what is.
Vote like your life depends on it
I'm sure suffering Americans will appreciate the democrats stepping in and blocking the extension of their unemployment benefits.
He just wants Americans to think he’s on their side. Makes him look good. Fortunately we’re smarter than that. Who was the one who had put in the stimulus redoing the FBI building. And again it’s about him. He would lose money because of his Trump Tower.
But but wait! Something is off... AH YA! Trump cannot do that! 🤷🏻♂️ realDonaldTrump truly is King bullshit the 1st.
Thanks, Donald.
$400 is better than nothing bc certain people were sitting back collecting $600 and not paying their bills they’re buying drinks/hanging out buying HD TV’s...
$400 pm won’t boost the economy.
There goes social security, the payroll tax funds it....
Well? Can't count on Congress,but still don't like this so-called President,and Congress sucks too !!!
$400 per month in salary for GOP's corrupt clowns, and nothing more, until covid19 is gone.
President Trump doing for Americans while socialists continue playing their games!! Trump2020LetsSaveAmerica
Desperation and gaslighting. He’s losing and he knows it.
Thank you POTUS!! Finally, a non politician who wants to directly help Americans and not line their on pockets with special projects.
Someone ask the President what is in the Constitution. All Bills for raising Revenue shall originate in the House of Representatives; but the Senate may propose or concur with Amendments as on other Bills. Even if he is doing it for the right reason it is still wrong.
Illegally, and why aren't you, an objective news source, up in arms about it?
Specialist of hush money !.....After his mistress, now he's trying the same with the American voters.....But this money is not his money, it's the american people. Corrupt 45.
Illegal. But he doesn’t understand that. It has to do with the Constitution...so he’s out.
It’s good to have a President who does his work when the good for nothing Congress decides to play politics as usual. Kudos to you Mr. President.
Trop is one lying so-called president.
Because Democrats are the enemy of the American Citizens
HEY CNN UR PUTIN TAGS R SHOWING HE CANT DO THAT WOULD THINK **NEWS** PEOPLE WOULD READ THE CONSTITUION
Republicans wouldn’t negotiate to come to a deal, so Ta-Da! Trump saves the day with unenforceable EOs for good press. Nobody has ever cared more than the “People’s President”, even though he created the problem by completely botching a virus response plan. Electiongames
I wish there was a live feed of SpeakerPelosi when he signed these. Can't imagine how she's going to come out AGAINST giving people $1600 a month ON TOP of regular unemployment benefits. Since realDonaldTrump did it she'll obviously fight it even though she agrees with it. TDS
“That he says” 🤣👍🏻
400$ would not cover child care it someone had to go back to work
Democrats are full of 💩💩 trying to put so many stuff that’s unrelated to COVID 19 while they’re in their houses living lavishly poorer people should live off nothing, they just playing politics.
Where's he gonna get the money? Someone tell him he can't run the country by royal decree?
Anything for essentials
Boost the economy? $400 will still leave many underwater and struggling to eat and pay rent.
I think everyone who Trump should refuse the money. That’ll show em!
He can't do these things. It's all bullshit.
I'm sure. Let's start the legal challenges so that pork can be added to another bill and delay relief for Americans out of work. Not surprised.
This was done for show in front of fan base that was clapping for him! I would not be surprise if this back fires on him!
Yeah you can't do that. Congress controls the purse.
Awesome! $400 is more than regular unemployment. $600...people love to complain. Complain and blame
Can't wait to see Dems sue to deny unemployment compensation.
Executive orders or peddling for votes (and stay out of prison)?
Donald Trump does not have the power of the purse any unemployment benefits have to go through Congress. Again Donald Trump overstepped his bounds as the worst president in US history!!!
It’s only $300 from federal. This us the lawful.
$300 down from $600. But just a circus stunt. Only Congress can appropriate money
Liberals being upset makes me happy.
He doesn’t care about the Constitution, this is why he’s a dictator and will be voted out in November...
And then he couldn’t answer questions from female reporters. Love it. Had to end the presser. Cannot believe someone this stupid ever got elected President. Shame on us.
Those not in favor of Trump's actions today, hav got 2b anti-Ameri- can. That would include Pelosi, Schumer, othr Dems & RINOs. POTUS GOP BreitbartNews MZHemingway marklevinshow MarkMeadows
Trump doesn't care about legal challenges. Its all about making him look good to the voters and in this case it does. I am sure Trump 2020 is in process of putting together ad about this. Congress failed again, Dems were the road block and he fixed the problem as only he can.
He has no such authority under the law
DO ANYTHING YOU CAN TO HATE OUR PRESIDENT..YOU WORK FOR CHINA
How will we cover SOCIAL SECURITY? SO realDonaldTrump wants to get rid of SOCIAL SECURITY!!!
How the fuck will it boost the economy when it is less than before? Also a tax holiday means your ass is paying into the IRS come tax season.
Cuts 800 a month from millions desperately in need
Brilliant move, well done Trump!! It’s a National Emergency and Americans have no time for these obstructionists while poor people out here starving.
Someone’s in panic mode right now
Go ahead fight it dumicrats...
Going to look crazy for those to fight this, then he will just say they want to give you nothing, and I wanted $400 more in unemployment benefits.
Where is Trump getting the money?
Another worthless Executive order that is unenforceable done to make some me stupid citizens think that Trump is doing something lol
More money being printed that isn’t backed by anything. The after effects will make Covid look like nothing
Seriously, 400.00 that’s not enough for a family of 4 a month, such a POS he is, and it sure isn’t going to boost the economy, that’s for sure...he’s completely done in November!!
Just $400? Or is there a letter like M or B missing after that figure?
It's 300.00......states will not chip in the other 100.00 as his order says.....so use 300.00 as the amount.
They give LESS money and he thinks we’re going to do anything other than buy food, pay a PORTION of rent. He wasted our time watching, his time signing, the trees that shit was printed on and the ink from the pen. The DO NOTHING POTUS & HIS TRAITOR GANG!
Useless piece of s—-
Cool that we have a King now. Where’s my GOPers at with their pocket Constitution?
Yeah only if he’s elected I tell him to shove the money up is ass
the emperor has no clothes
It’s obvious Meadows & Mnuchin had no interest or inclination to work any deal with the Democrats. It was all a set-up for this political stunt, an attempt to help Trump’s re-election bid. He’s using America’s unemployed as props. He should be ashamed but he has no shame.
Congress has the power to overturn so if it is executed it was approved by more than just the President.
“President Donald Trump on Sunday signed four executive orders, one of which would provide $400 a week...” Sunday, huh? Do you guys even bother to proof read?
Wow he is desperate!!! He would never do this farther away from election
He has NO idea what he does. fakepresident
So he basically cut funding to Americans during a pandemic. Isn’t that special. TrumpMustGo
