    Who cares? I am sure you would have cared had Obama sent you a check from your tax dollars with his signature on it!

    P.S: We got our direct deposit yesterday.

    I'm not getting a Trumpbux check, early, late, or ever.

    So I'll just sit back and laugh at the people who are are crying over the bad Orange Man's name on their Trumpbux.

    That's as hilarious as it is awesome. Man, nobody knows how to make a liberal tear their hair out at the root faster or better than Trump. And he knows it.

    Too funny. I guess "abuse of office" will be the excuse for the next impeachment. How dare the leader of the government, who is issuing these checks, have his name on them. Lol, you sound so silly.

    His name is going to be on the checks. No president has had his name on IRS checks before so someone took that decision, and if you don't think that decision was either made by Trump personally or by someone very close to him in order to pump up his ego and with his consent, you have not been watching this administration at all.

    Ummmmm...REPUBLICANS coined the term "Obamacare" as a dig to the POTUS (which failed). They ALSO coined the term Obama Phones.

    It'll be funny if this becomes the latest "abuse of power" hill they decide to die on.

    I didn't piss and moan when I got a paper honoring my grandfather for serving in WWII, and it was signed by obama. That honor meant more to me than a stimulus check. Try again, Nerd.

    If you don't think this decision was made in order to make liberal heads explode, then you've been watching nothing but Trump's laser dot while your head explodes.

    He isn't issuing them. The IRS is issuing them and has a process for someone signing them. He is doing something no other president has done. It's pathetic.

    To keep the masses quiet and compliant a lot of buying off is going to be upcoming. Government, full spectrum, is off the rails.

    What's pathetic is how easily you hand Trump exactly the reaction he was going for. You're just too easy.

    Do you think it is a wise use of a president's resources to make political opponents' "heads explode"?

    Because I think a president should make every effort to bring the country together. Unite the country in a time of crisis. Not drive a wedge deeper. It looks like you (and Trump) prefer a divided country rather than a united one. United we stand, divided ... is what you want.

    The government owns the IRS, that's why obama was able to use them against Republicans in 2012.

    More pathetic than anything is the lengths you people will go to, to say anything negative about Trump. This doesn't look good for your party, at all. Everything y'all cry about ends up backfiring in your faces. The boy who cried wolf got eaten at the end. Write that down.

    Trump is much smarter than you give him credit for. While you guys scream for unity, the rest of the country knows that there's nothing Trump could ever do while he's the president that will unite the die hard haters. I mean, he's giving you money and you're crying from the mountain tops about it.

    NO. The only people who support this are Republicans.

    We all understand the purpose of this, and it's ridiculous. Trump putting his name on a check is overtly, "Trump wrote you a check, now vote for Trump"

    And all due respect but your conflating the 2 issues here. They are completely separate. The money/legislation is a whole separate issue from the "advertisement" on the check.

    The money part fascinates me from the republican side of the isle. They voted for 2 trillion dollars, and are trying to pass yet another 2 trillion in "relief", yet are literally in court right now fighting against Obamacare because, well, SOCIALISM. But then again, I'm pretty sure that republicans will not cash their checks because they are true to the ideals........yeah...right.

    The name on the check is nothing more than political advertising. Trumps name should not be on it and you know it. But because it serves their political agenda, republicans will support it. But remember, that money is TAXPAYER money, not a check from DOnald J Trump. If Obama did this the right would be marching in the streets.

    Nope, not true. The Obama administration, and Obama himself, had no problem with "Obamacare" when it was proposed, and when it was first rolled out. It was going to be Obama's legacy, so of course he wanted to stamp his name on it.

    It was only after the Obamacare disaster started unfolding that Obama tried to walk away from it and scrub his name off the turd. Obamacare was such a debacle that the left even decided that "Obamacare" was some sort of alt-right perpetuated racist slur. It was an utterly ridiculous attempt to rewrite history, and all it did was reveal just how epic of a trainwreck Obamacare truly was, and is.

    "Obamaphone" was cemented into history when the Obamaphone lady video went viral.Trying(again) to rewrite history and turn it into a right-wing conspiracy is just laughable.

    Their problem is that the liberal playbook was used against them, but Trump put a Republican twist on it.

    Liberal playbook rule #6,432: Take from the taxpayers and give free money to minorities and illegals.

    Same rule with (R) twist: Take from the taxpayers and give free money to minorities and illegals taxpayers. Put name on checks for added flailing and anger.

    You know how bad the left hates it when you use their double standards against them.

    I knew their was a video but I always assumed it was from the republicans coining the term that she used.

    If I am wrong I retract that the "coined" the term but do stand by their attempted "weaponizing" of the term

    Apologies

    Well he bought votes with it, and the same people who had no problem with it are complaining that Trump is buying votes simply by having his name on a check issued by the government.

    Yes, making the left's collective head explode is a very shrewd political strategy. It reveals how insane and irrational leftists are, weakens their credibility, and causes them to make foolish political mistakes(see: Joe Biden for President)

    As far as being united- okay you first. Go ahead and temper your all-consuming hatred of Trump just a bit, and I'll believe that your pleas for unity are genuine.

    Tell us what you like about Trump. Give us a little unifying positivity.

    Aaaand go.

    I'll be over here not holding my breath.
