I was thinking it might be from just sitting on the couch too ****ing much so I think this is smart. Plus, stretching out has to be a winner no matter how you slice it.

I haven't had any other symptoms besides a few allergy related sniffles in the morning that go away as soon as I get up and active. The chest thing mostly happens at night when I am alone with my thoughts but today it has been pretty much all day.

You can stupidly attribute all to Trump if you want. Just wipe the **** stains off your cheeks when you're done.

Trump and Mnuchin do deserve credit for the bill though. They were the ones that pushed for direct payments to the vast majority of Americans, not the Democrats.

If the Democrats had introduced the original bill, you wouldn't have gotten jack anyway. I find it rather amusing Trump and Republicans got momentum behind an idea that all the other Democrats besides Yang balked at.

I will say that at least Pelosi and Sanders had the common sense to want to develop the bill into an even better form instead of wanting to kill it outright like AOC and others seemed intent on doing.

AOC and many others opposed it because most of it is focused on giving tons of money towards huge corporate bail outs while leaving the people that will actually struggle with jack ****. You're intentionally ignoring key bits of context to push a dishonest narrative. But that's life being Trump's personal ass wipe.

Lol bull****. The Democrats wanted to give hundreds of millions to the Kennedy Center, National Endowment for the Arts, National Endowment for the Humanities, and Corporation for Public Broadcasting with no oversight. How does any of that help "the people that will actually struggle"? At least the hotel industry and airlines have large enough workforces to justify "bailouts" to some extent.

If you want to talk about context, at least get all of the facts straight. I personally think a lot more money should have just gone to individual checks and Unemployment. But both the Republicans and Democrats agreed that certain industries need the bailouts and that a lot of small businesses need the money too.

Pelosi wanted to spend money on a lot of stupid **** that had nothing to do with the people, but IDK how many democrats are involved in that. But she did at least try to give the people more and expand who gets what.

They all can suck my balls. I'm team Bernie. I'm his toilet paper just as you're Trump's toilet paper but Bernie's ******* is cleaner which is miraculous because he's an old old man.
