When millions are out of a job because of a pandemic that closed their place of work you need to pay them so more businesses don't go under. Do you know what a depression is?

...unless Trump is re-elected. Per his signing statement, he seems to be bribing the citizens for votes now.

He was a Republican Nazi. The Party has many. The only good thing about Joe is that he died at 48...from being a drunk and a drug addict.

It would require legislation to eliminate the deferment...

This is the GOP's legislative nuclear option that mcconnell wouldn't employ in the senate. No difference. R's will rue this day.
A Democratic President can now make legislation by executive order on anything, including sacred amendments to the constitution.

Yep. And Congress will step aside (via McConnel), leaving the courts the sole arbitrater.

Joe McCarthy goes with the 1930 Republican Nazis.

Seems the Right would work to eliminate Congress from the equation, making it nothing more than a Politburo rubber stamp or whatever the German body was that pretended to be Hitler's check and balance.

Trump cut Congress out is more accurate and he made sure no deal was made. He sees no reason for anyone but him to make all the decisions. He has no idea what a U.S. President is. That is news to you?

Trump placing Meadows in the negotiations pretty much assured something like this would happen. Trump wanted a political showdown, because his administerial actions & abilities will leave him short of re-election.

Is English your first language? I assume not, evictions are covered in the EO language.

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump signed executive orders Saturday for coronavirus economic relief, upending negotiations with Congress after lawmakers failed to reach a deal on Friday.

The executive orders establish a payroll tax holiday through the end of the year for Americans earning less than $100,000 a year.

They also defer student loan payments through the end of the year; continue eviction moratoriums; and extend enhanced unemployment benefits that expired last week, but at a reduced level of $400 instead of the prior $600.

"If I'm victorious on November 3rd, I plan to forgive these taxes and make permanent cuts to the payroll tax," Trump said. "Joe Biden and the Democrats may not want that, they don't want that."

Looks like Trump got tired of Congress not getting anything done....he bypassed them

He also said he would cut the taxes that fund SS and Medicare if re-elected, good grief the guy is a complete idiot.

Legal battle to follow, too much stepping over his authority. Not allowed with him and not with any President.

Yes they are ,and several other items the Dems wanted, I wonder why that does not bother some of the idiots here. Anyway, most are nothing more than an attempt to get some support to his losing re-election bid.
