Trump did not take a question about the House bill -- panning it -- until after the market closed for the week.

1. Because it has "goodies" for the "other"

Clearly that's not happening

[Girard442]

2. My money is still on the R's passing NO bill, cuz Vlad told them not to.

[lapfog_1]

3. hospital workers should walk off the job

Trump just condemned some of them to die... needlessly

[flamingdem]

4. They need to ask him about this at the Presser

That pig needs to answer to this.

[wnylib]

5. This whole presser today is

a total farce.

Trump gives out ridiculous disinformation, e.g. doctors told him "this whole thing will flow through and be gone."

"flow through?"

And saying hold ups in Congress on legislation to deal with the crisis are because "Democrats are not giving us what we need for this."

Maybe the worst part was turning it into a commercial for his various corporate pals, followed by praise from administration members for what a trmendous job has done to protect the nation.

And, of course the usual lies.

6. They had a deal, Mnuchin and Pelosi

but Trump wanted more. He will never agree to anything, he is so fucking scared that Pelosi will get the better of him. By him doing this, she just did. She will pass the deal on her own.

Hearing that one of the holdups in passing the coronavirus bill is Republicans wanting to add some kind of abortion restrictions & remove paid sick leave. If so, that’s a damned disgrace.

9. He said "the Democrats aren't giving enough." So what do the repubs want us to 'give' them?

[wishstar]

13. Tax cuts including payroll so he can brag and try to prop up market and his approval next week

and use politically by saying Dems were opposed to tax cuts.

[Maru Kitteh]

10. It's his useless fucking wall. Count on it.

[coti]

12. This was my first thought.

On the other hand, I think he's just a reflexive asshole and this probably isn't based on anything at all.

Pelosi and Mnuchin need to just ignore him.

11. The dealmakers need to just ignore him. nt
