(11,885 posts)And they both are at fault for the situation they now face in Texas. Trump and Abbott are getting their ass kicked by this virus now, and have made it worse , again. Both are failures from their policies , and have caused people to lose their lives because of their latest failure from trying to reopen prematurely. Soon they'll stop giving unemployment forcing people to return or lose getting helped. Trump and McConnell are stalling getting stimulus to the people, and I suspect trumps holding out for his cut or he won't give us anything , but when he does it will be again woefully too little (he'll claim its big when he was against giving anything) to late and we'll see the trump depression upon us soon.Trump doesn't want people to get any direct payments if he had his way, but he will claim he does, but he's a serial liar, and he wants more for himself in this next bill passed.
