If not for @realDonaldTrump would not get $2,000 @marwilliamson . Dems never fought for $2,000. It was @realDonaldTrump . Not for him get pennies from dumb Democrats.
#Democrats DID ask for 2,000 to begin with, months ago, you silly hack. In fact they wanted to make it 2k *per month*. Don't you even get around? thehill.com/homenews/house/4… BY SCOTT WONG - 05/09/20
