No, #BrokenTimes, Trump tries to buy votes with voters' money.

@nomdeb @jeffjarvis they’re convinced their checks got lost in the mail but their neighbors down the road got one and their pastor’s nephew’s son did, too.

@jeffjarvis It is infuriating that this man just breaks the law willy nilly and every single circuit breaker for this behavior is ignored or thwarted.

@jeffjarvis It’s our money. He’s trying to bribe us with our own money.

Go figure.

@jeffjarvis The fucked up thing is that this worked for Musk in 2024. It's literally how we got trump again, capitalism makes people suffer them dangles carrots to convince y'all to do what's against your best interests.

@jeffjarvis Also, HE DOESN'T PAY PEOPLE he promises to pay.

@jeffjarvis

Reminds me of all those times have republicans complained that democrats were socialists who just wanted free money?

I think I'd rather have anti-trust laws, an independent FCC that doesn't threaten press freedoms, a post office that can deliver mail, and a CDC and FDA that stops food born illnesses more than $5,000.

@michaelgemar @jeffjarvis we will get those $5k checks after the Doge checks and Tariff checks.

@jeffjarvis Fuckin magats expecting a handout. Bunch of closet commies.

@jeffjarvis

You correctly stated it: Trump is not trying to buy votes with the money from voters. There is no money.

Instead, Trump will increase the debt to pay for this.

He tries to buy votes with money that the voters' children will have to pay off.

@NO_PULSE_XBL @jeffjarvis Boy, we’ll be rich!

[labspokane@mas.to]

@jeffjarvis Is “bribery” that fucking tough to utter?
