Just heard this Trump twit on AMJOY

[TNNurse]

She said that most Americans can benefit from any amount of added money in their paycheck. I think the estimate is $18-20 dollars per check. She then listed gas, food and other essentials for using it. Does this fool think $18 will cover one of those???

1. I heard one better

On my local news last night the newscaster said the extra cash will help some people renovate their homes
or buy a new car.

6. Bwahaha! That newscaster has never gotten an estimate on

any home renovation project or shopped for a new car, obviously.

When my wife's late mother's condo townhouse was going up for sale to cover her expenses in a memory care unit, it needed overall interior painting, new carpeting and a new kitchen counter to get a good price in the local market. $25,000 later, all that work was finished. It was worth the cost, and returned more than that amount in increased value. My wife and I wish we could do something similar for our own home while we're still living in it, but that ain't happening. We simply can't afford it, and Trump's Tax Bill isn't going to let us do that, either.

11. They are parroting Gary Cohen.

Economic advisor Gary Cohn said Thursday that an American family could save $1,000 under the Republicans' proposed tax reform plan, and it could use that money to pay for a new car or a kitchen.

"If we allow a family to keep another thousand dollars of their income, what does that mean? They can renovate their kitchen, they can buy a new car, they can take their family on vacation, they can increase their lifestyle," he said. "That's what our tax plan has to do."

You should call them out on it.

13. Everyone just bought a new car, and they don't even realize it yet.

Actually, you can pay off a new car a lot faster than the debt we all just incurred. The irony, the interest we pay will be maintaining and fueling that car.

17. I am selling my 2003 Pontiac vibe with 130,000 miles that needs news bearings for $500

My mechanic wanted to charge me $900 to repair. Is that the kind of car one could buy with their enormous tax cut from twitler and the gop?

[unblock]

2. They say no such thing as a free lunch when it comes to government spending,

But it’s all a free lunch when it come new to tax cuts.....

[packman]

3. No-No-No- That "extra" money is to be used to buy stock

so EVERYONE can be invested in the stock market - Don'tchaknow that is the Republican dream.

[Historic NY]

4. Its going to cost $49.00 for a roll of 100 stamps...

might need them to send snail mail after Trumps buddies get done with the internet.

[MoonRiver]

5. AMJoy is my favorite show, but,

everytime she gives that kind of scum air time, I switch channels.

[TNNurse]

14. We just use the mute button

like we do for Trump, Ryan, McConnell and many many others.

[MoonRiver]

18. I use that too. It all depends on what's on the other channels.

7. Crumbs

No one disputes that many Americans will be getting a few dollars more in their paychecks. The issue is the gross inequity between what most get as opposed to what a few get.
The con here is give a few bucks to the masses, while steathily cutting services and removing health care subsidies, and maybe they won't notice by Nov. 2018.
This is why we must stay alert, strong, and Rise Up against this sham!

[RKP5637]

8. That extra money is for donations to your local GOP critter as Thanks! It's un-American to spend it

on yourself!

[safeinOhio]

9. That 50 cents/gallon for gas

from Jan. when trump took over, will wipe that out for me.

[cilla4progress]

10. Let them eat

Cake....

[n2doc]

12. I am sure they will spend it all on Lobster

[livetohike]

15. Maybe buy one draught beer per day with all that extra money

Such a scam.

16. After their health insurance premiums go up they'll be in the hole.
