Trump 2024 & His Plan For A Triumphant Return

The Vox headline reads: “After days of needless anxiety, Trump signs the $900 billion stimulus package…”

​The anxiety was needless. However, in Trump’s mind creating the anxiety was necessary so he could use the stimulus bill as a 2024 campaign opportunity. Trump will claim he fought for working Americans. This is all about Trump 2024..

Vox reports: “In a statement issued upon signing, Trump touted his work on addressing the pandemic and economic fallout and said he would demand ‘many rescissions’ to the bill. He said he was sending a ‘strong message that makes clear to Congress that wasteful items need to be removed’ and would send to lawmakers a redlined version of the deal with his demands. It’s unlikely those demands are going anywhere.

In his statement, Trump also nodded to the House’s plan to vote to increase stimulus checks in the package from $600 to $2,000. He said that the Senate would “start the process” for a vote that increases checks but also repeals Section 230 — an internet speech law -- and starts an investigation into (unfounded) claims of voter fraud. Again, this seems like a nonstarter: In a statement regarding Trump’s decision to sign the relief bill, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell did not address those new asks.”

Everything Trump does is about Trump and his triumphant 2024 return to the White House.
