Are the ones grifting off of this pandemic and who refuse to provide funds to actual small businesses and individuals who are hurting. We are one of the few "industrialized" countries in the world who haven't provided for their people during this tragedy. But I'm sure, the Queen Ivanka has sacrificed just as much as any other American 🙄🙄

...or the "American Dream" alive of being born rich without a fucking clue.

Maybe if "daddy" hadn't fucked up so bad trying to get re-elected old Nick wouldn't be faced with ruin.

Or maybe if Moscow Mitch passed the Heroes Act months ago Nick would have rent relief.

Or maybe if massive amounts of PPP money hadn't gone to big oil, Boeing, Wall Street, mega churches, and Jared's buddies, small businesses and restaurants wouldn't be hurting for money.

Just go away Griftarella. Get a good lawyer. You're going to need it.

didn’t turn his base into anti-mask, anti-science, it’s-a-liberal-conspiracy-hoax believers, we wouldn’t be in the position of having to lock things down to the degree we have to now.

Have been infected with this virus and she’s posting this? The money allocated for relief did not get to those in need..she could lobby for accountability for those funds and get relief where it’s needed. Or..she could just stfu and go away.

for "small business" seems to be the newest rightie argument. Perhaps someone should have mandated mask wearing to stop the spread and enabled businesses to stay open?

But not really. The agent serving the closure citation is only doing HER job because she has to pay HER rent. She has NOTHING to do with the order itself.

Everyone in the world is going broke. Small countries are struggling with closures and going broke too.

Civility is something we all need to think about. Everyone has frustration, money trouble and fear of tomorrow. Screaming at people in the same boat gets us nowhere.

Losing your business is not as bad as losing your life or killing your friends and relatives.
