2k can't replace the pay for federal workers who have been furloughed, or the upcoming ACA increases, and for some that's just a couple months of food for their families

He just likes sending checks with his name on it. I genuinely don't want a dividend from this tariff fraud

$2k isn't even enough to cover most people's expenses for one month. Meanwhile he pockets billions.
