I Democratic cities? I thought they were American cities? America has always helped cities rebuild after wars we have helped destroy (Berlin, for one). I think we can help rebuild our own cities. you’re equating rioting by punks to Past wars were soldiers were killed and injured?? Are you freaking kidding me ? No. I do think BLM could kick in to help-lots of black businesses have been destroyed. Seems to me not helping the innocent victims of a riot is NOT a step in the right direction. holidayhusker, are you okay with Republican cities receiving funds to rebuild?

Trump orders a $400/week unemployment extension.
“We’re doing that without the Democrats,” Trump said. “We should have been able to do it very easily with them, but they want all these additional things that have nothing to do with helping people.”
For the new $400 per week benefit, states would be on the hook for funding 25 percent to the millions of jobless Americans, while the federal government would pick up 75 percent of the benefit, Trump said. Asked when the jobless would see the money, Trump said it would be “rapidly distributed.”

I believe in common sense government. If it’s a national disaster then all cities deserve some funding. If it’s self caused whether it’s Republican or Democrat, that city should be responsible for its own costs. Because of the poor decisions of leader ship, why should the rest of the country be responsible for the cost?

Trump orders a $400/week unemployment extension. He can't. I mean, sure, he can order anything he likes, but all spending authorization has to come from Congress. That's a rule in the Constitution. Presidents do not have the authority to order spending.

Presidents do not have the authority to order spending. So, for people with little to no money right now, they shouldn't get too excited over hearing the money will be "rapidly dispersed"? Sounds like an irresponsible statement for him to make!

Sounds like an irresponsible statement for him to make! Well, he might order checks to be sent out anyway, but it could easily precipitate a Constitutional crisis. In any event, his Executive Order for a $400 bonus is an unfunded mandate on the states. The order states that $100 of the $400 must be paid by the states.

Massive federal spending, if every other crash in history is to be our benchmark. And guess which party is promoting more spending? Hello, is anyone home? Which of the two parties is for fiscal responsibility? I'll wait.

The Dems aren't perfect. Far from it. But at least they aren't actively working against dealing with COVID.

I don’t disagree with that but the problem is, they hold each other hostage constantly getting what they want, no one is fiscally responsible or even tries, have you seen Nancy Pelosi willing to try to balance the budget? Hell no she isn’t
