About Those Executive Orders
Three of the four ‘Executive Orders’ Trump signed weren’t actually Executive Orders. Read the whole thing at Crooks & Liars, but basically this was another con during his break from playing golf.
As for the boost in unemployment payments, he is using FEMA emergency funds which means the states have to come up with $100 to get $300 more from FEMA. States and local governments are going broke dealing with the pandemic and and economic slow down.
He is suspending collection of withholding taxes, but you still owe them and have to pay them by the end of the year. This is an attack on Medicare and Social Security, and he flat stated he wants to stop funding those programs if he gets reelected.
