It’s Wednesday aka Friday Eve-Eve.
For Friday Eve-Eve President Impeached has tweeted 9 times and retweeted once, so far.
No worries peeps suffering from that “Chinese Virus,” tax payer money is on the way!
For the people that are now out of work because of the important and necessary containment policies, for instance the shutting down of hotels, bars and restaurants, money will soon be coming to you. The onslaught of the Chinese Virus is not your fault! Will be stronger than ever!

At Tuesday’s daily press briefing on the coronavirus situation Secretary of Treasury Steven Mnuchin explained that President Impeached would like to get cash in the hands of American’s hurt financially by the social distancing and bar and restaurant closures [most restaurants across the nation are still open they are just half-full, or switching to take out only].

There are numbers floating around, both in terms of how much American’s will get, what the qualification income cut-off will be, and for how long American’s will receive the money.
The numbers in dollars, is 1,000 up to 4,000. In order to qualify for the cash payment, the annual household income must either be 100,000 and below, or maybe 75,000 and below.
Duration ranges from monthly until the crisis passes or it could possibly end up a one-time cash payment. Mnuchin believes the plan can be arranged quickly with payments sent out in two-weeks. Mnuchin does not mention numbers, just says, “I will be previewing that with the Republicans,” he adds, “there are some numbers out there they maybe a little bigger than what’s in the process.”
After the presser Mnuchin spoke with the press announcing a new stimulus package that is a “big number,” it would inject $1 trillion into the economy, he adds, “that’s on top of the $300 billion from the IRS deferrals.”

President Impeached: When these trade deals kick-in and when all–you know the economy is the best economy we’ve ever had, it’s nothing compared to what it’s going to be. When the trade deals kick in.
Martha MacCallum: If you don’t do something on entitlements you’ll never really deal with the debt.
President Impeached: Oh, will we be cutting, but we are also going to have growth like we’ve never had before.
He then announces he’ll be holding yet another presser aka mini-rally or my personal thoughts, ‘orgy.’
I will be having a news conference today to discuss very important news from the FDA concerning the Chinese Virus!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2020
To review the presser [note: I’m writing this from the future where it hasn’t happened just yet] @ the News Blender.
President Impeached moves on from his mini-rally announcement to focus on how he’s always known and taken seriously the threat of the coronavirus. Note he again calls it the “Chinese Virus,” which isn’t even accurate, in the early days of the virus it was called the Wuhan Virus, as that’s where the cases first appeared.
I always treated the Chinese Virus very seriously, and have done a very good job from the beginning, including my very early decision to close the “borders” from China – against the wishes of almost all. Many lives were saved. The Fake News new narrative is disgraceful & false!

I shamelessly stole this from the comment section of the Night Owl…
As Trump pivots to coronavirus crisis mode, let’s not forget the months of downplaying and denial. pic.twitter.com/gH1xZAHXm5

President Impeached aka the Liar-in-Chief moves on to focus on the primary election held on Tuesday, where voters voted for former Vice President Joe Biden, over Senator Bernie Sanders (D-VT).
The DNC will have gotten their fondest wish and defeated Bernie Sanders, far ahead of schedule. Now they are doing everything possible to be nice to him in order to keep his supporters. Bernie has given up, just like he did last time. He will be dropping out soon! MAGA/KAG
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2020
He deleted the first try at blaming the DNC for voters voting.
Fat =’s far…
As the News Blender covered on Tuesday, Biden won all three states, including Florida, that went ahead with their primary. But, yeah, it’s totally the DNC’s fault.
95% Approval Rating in the Republican Party, 53% overall. Not bad considering I get nothing but Fake & Corrupt News, day and night. “Russia, Russia, Russia”, then “the Ukraine Scam (where’s the Whistleblower?)”, the “Impeachment Hoax”, and more, more, more….
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2020
….Also, according to the Daily Caller, leading Sleepy Joe Biden in Florida, 48% to 42%.
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2020
53 percent overall; according to Rasmussen Reports for March 18th, the Presidential approval tracker has him at 46 percent approve, while 53 disapprove. It’s likely that President Impeached mixed up the approval and disapproval percentages.
As usual, neither of these numbers is true. Trump is at 46% approval even in Rasmussen, the pollster consistently friendliest to him. pic.twitter.com/4LXERW3Krg

Moving away from misunderstanding his poll numbers he focuses back on the coronavirus.
We will be, by mutual consent, temporarily closing our Northern Border with Canada to non-essential traffic. Trade will not be affected. Details to follow!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) March 18, 2020
As explained in the Presser news Blender Thread, Prime Minister of Canada Justin Trudeau has confirmed the “mutual consent,” between our country and his to close non-essential travel.
Moving away from Presidential business, sort of, he thanks Target.
Thank you to our great American businesses for going above and beyond to keep our most vulnerable citizens safe! https://t.co/BlV0E4r5IB

Target’s CEO Brain Cornell announced on Tuesday, that starting on Wednesday [today] two changes would into place and last until further notice:
We’ll reduce hours and close all stores by 9 p.m. daily. This will help us as we replenish and deeply clean our stores for our guests. And it builds on measures we shared earlier this month, including enhanced cleaning and more staffing for in-demand services that support social distancing, like Order Pickup and Drive Up.
We’ll also reserve the first hour of shopping each Wednesday to support vulnerable guests, including the elderly and those with underlying health concerns.
Target. 03/17/2020.
