I'm watching the Donald Trump live news conference because I hate myself and want to suffer He's putting in some kind of temporary tax relief. He says he'll make it permanent if he wins

He's blaming Democrats for the failure to expand relief programs, obviously. Luckily, our lord and savior is going to executive order benefits into existence. $400 per week unemployment benefits to replace the $600. "And we're doing that without the Democrats"

Boy he is hammering the China Virus thing hard. Called it the China Virus in the first sentence of this conference, keeps emphasizing that this is all their fault

He spent about ten minutes ranting about voter fraud at the beginning. Claimed that Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer want to release violent felons and "tear down the wall" It turns out you can just say whatever the fuck you want

He's bragging about the stock market now. Says he hoped everyone had confidence in their president and didn't sell I will concede that the stock market recovery is an astounding feat of human hubris in the face of obvious ruin

Trump just said that the Democrats are the ones pushing to reopen schools, and that his priority is protecting the most vulnerable He's pivoting

Somehow the Democrats are both irresponsibly pushing to open the economy AND trying to ruin the economy by keeping it closed Everything is shit but I'm not going to lie: as someone who's studied fascism for years it is cool as shit to see it happening in real time

I just caught the tail end of this broadcast what executive action is he signing? Tax relief?
