Anonymous Coward User ID: 79534643 United States 12/28/2020 12:11 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | OP Gets it, Quoting: Chaz Aldrin Trump did a Line item Veto on the crap bill gutting all the PORK Priceless But it's Donald Trump's pork. He requested it. Confusingly, most of the spending measures Mr Trump singled out as his complaint with the COVID relief bill were nearly identical to ones he himself requested in his own budget proposal for FY2021 earlier this year. To run through a few examples, Mr Trump’s proposal asked for: $82.5 million in aid for Cambodia; $131.4 million for Burma; $1.3 billion for Egypt and it’s military; $25 million for democracy and gender programs in Pakistan; $520 million for Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Panama; $1.1 billion for the Smithsonian; $40.4 million for the Kennedy Centre; $162 million for the National Gallery. President Trump railed against the federal spending in the sweeping coronavirus relief package, arguing Congress was prioritizing foreign aid and funds for other programs over sending more generous direct payments to struggling Americans. But the list Trump rattled off during a surprise video announcement Tuesday night conflated the coronavirus stimulus measure with the year-end federal government omnibus spending bill passed in tandem by the Senate. Moreover, much of the spending allocations Trump criticized were the exact amounts he requested for those programs in his fiscal 2021 budget: • $1.3 billion for Egypt and the Egyptian military? Trump’s budget asked for $1.3 billion. • $134 million for Myanmar? Trump’s budget had sought $131,450,000. • $40 million for the Kennedy Center? Trump’s budget asked for $40,400,000. Trump’s gripes focused largely on foreign aid, arts and humanities, and fish. This was also in Trump's budget request: “$7 million for reef fish management, $25 million to combat Asian carp, $2.5 million to count the number of amberjack fish in the Gulf of Mexico. A provision to promote the breeding of fish in federal hatcheries,” but he also listed this among programs he didn’t think should be funded. Thread: Millions for Cambodia, Nepal, gender studies in Pakistan, the National Gallery, Kennedy Center-WHY DID TRUMP PUT ALL THIS PORK IN THE COVID BILL? ---- So yeah. Epic. He pulled off that $2000 to $600 bait and switch. Got all the billions of dollars of pork he wanted. And you got $600. Congratulations, suckers. |
