1. And that $200 will really help

a lot after medicare is cut off!

[Walleye]

2. I'll believe it when I see it.

[sprinkleeninow]

3. scrambling....

[Enterstageleft]

4. Works for us

That frees up $400 to send to the Biden/Harris campaign.

[spooky3]

5. Doesn't Nancy Pelosi have to get her team to support this first? nt

[Laura PourMeADrink]

8. Good question. Amazing what he can do by exec order. Also

His shifting money around on a whim. Or his COVID slush fund. Or his inauguration and campaign funds.

[soothsayer]

6. He already called them "nobodies" who die from Covid

Don’t think this will change hearts and minds

[Croney]

7. 33 million x $200 equals 6.6e9?

I'm too old to know what that means but I know it's not anything realistically possible.

10. Leaving out 11mm. Guess that's the richer recipients??

Currently, 44 million beneficiaries—some 15 percent of the U.S. population—are enrolled in the Medicare program. Enrollment is expected to rise to 79 million by 2030. Only one in 10 beneficiaries relies solely on the Medicare program for health care coverage.

11. Is e9 a trillion?

[Croney]

14. Hmm, google says it's a billion.

Math is not my thing. Still, I'd like to know where these billions are coming from.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

19. Exactly! It's like going through the legislative process is just too damn hard

for him. So he looks to places where he can rob money. Evidently congress can't/won't close those loopholes.

He always had access to his dad's fortune and never had to worry about paying it back. When he became president he sought out similar sources ( inauguration fund for starters).

9. What the hell good will $200 do

You can't even buy fungal toenail medicine for that

[Laura PourMeADrink]

12. Coupons

[Laura PourMeADrink]

13. Guess this is his super duper prescription drug plan?

[bedazzled]

27. You can tell he never had to pay for a prescription

What an asshole

[Deb]

15. Hey Kids, POTUS wants to save you a $200 in eldercare!

It'll be great, promise.

[Elwood P Dowd]

16. Medicare enrollment is over 60 million.

Just who are the 33 million that qualify for this?

[Laura PourMeADrink]

20. Bet it's below x income threshold? Just read 44 million..man that

was old info.

[liberaltrucker]

17. Could be $1 million and I still wouldn't vote for him

I'd gladly take the money, though.

[Vinca]

18. Whoop de doo. What's that? Half a months worth of insulin?

When's he going to cut the checks? After the election I imagine. Just like revealing his healthcare plan. "After the election."

[Laura PourMeADrink]

21. This IS his healthcare plan

[octoberlib]

22. Democrats got rid of the donut hole .It was supposed to go into effect in 2019 until the

Republicans got rid of it. If he was serious about helping , he'd push that.

[Thekaspervote]

23. Yet deathsantis is wanting an investigation into M Bloomberg paying felons fines

Saying he’s buying their votes

I think this just one of the dumbest things he’s done yet

[greatauntoftriplets]

24. $200 to try to buy my vote?

That fucker's such a cheapskate. It's not for sale.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

26. Well, if you asked my mom, she'd say it was a lot of money. Lol

[JDC]

25. "Under my plan" he has no plan. He has no money to do this either

He's a clown

[Laura PourMeADrink]

28. Think there's a whole book that could be written about

How he "finds" money. And without recourse. Still want to know about FEMA. Thought they got $45 b under Care Act. Yet trump told them not pay for covid burials despite it being in their mission when there's a national emergency. YET...didn't they run out of money to help with last hurricane? Something rotten in Denmark there.

[JDC]

29. You're right. They will rob Peter to pay Paul.

Probably cut seniors' SS by $200, move that $ to a debit card and take credit for giving them $200 on their "Trump Card," which will be a use it or lose it plan. Sucking up the unused surplus for his own nefarious coffers.

30. as seniors are the most at risk for COVID deaths

one would think they could see through that bullshit. They should just listen to the Woodward tapes again. Sort of a booster shot, if needed.
