      Yeah if i only think I’m simple terms about the direct impact on my material circumstances under Trump, where i got checks deposited in my account automagically vs biden where i had to fill out a form and then never got my check at all?

      Gotta give that one to the cheeto.

      As an aside, i remember being surprised when those first checks got direct deposited into my account I never gave them the info. If they can do that, doesn’t that prove quite soundly that the whole performative bullshit paperwork ive done throughout the times of my life, dilligently proving i meet the requirements for aid, were just that? Performative, deliberate roadblocks?

      Dems policy points are like pharma commercials. The only truth in them is written in the fine print.

        Huh, maybe its because I’m on social security but I actually had the opposite experience? I never got Trump’s (first??? idr the timeline) check but Biden’s came into my account automatically.

        Yeah, must be a social security thing. Because I didnt have to fill out a form either.
