Yeah...he literally put $1400 in your pocket, assuming you're American, at the beginning of his administration in response to the covid-19 virus.

I am American. He literally didn't do that. I'm not going to dox myself any further than I already have on 3 years of hexbear but I was disqualifies from claiming any money out of a thin pretext. I absolutely could have used that money and frankly I deserved it as much as any other American did. $1400 was already a point negotiated down from $2000, and this was in direct response to a century defining global catastrophe

Americans will not line up out the door out of the polling stations to vote for a guy who, in time of great crisis, did the absolute bare minimum

But they'll absolutely line up for a guy that did the most to exacerbate the time of great crisis.

Americans...gotta love 'em.

Oh, so they won't vote for neither Biden nor Trump!? Great time to push a third party into office!

Lol as opposed to the guy who said to ignore the crisis and the party that said let your grandparents die for the economy. And thought it would hurt blue cities more so he actively made it worse. How does someone even type that out without being a troll and be like "yeah, that's right!"?

Edit: oh hexbear, that makes sense hahahaha
