President Donald Trump announced on twitter that he has halted negotiations on the next stimulus package until after elections as he predicts he will win the coming election. He said after he wins, he will “pass a major Stimulus Bill that focuses on hardworking Americans and Small Business.”

He then went on to tweet some more, adding: “Nancy Pelosi is asking for $2.4 Trillion Dollars to bailout poorly run, high crime, Democrat States, money that is in no way related to COVID-19,” Trump announced on Twitter. 

“We made a very generous offer of $1.6 Trillion Dollars and, as usual, she is not negotiating in good faith. I am rejecting their request, and looking to the future of our Country. I have instructed my representatives to stop negotiating until after the election when, immediately after I win, we will pass a major Stimulus Bill that focuses on hardworking Americans and Small Business.”

After his announcement, he explained up with more tweets, saying he has requested the Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell to focus on confirmation hearings for his Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett. 

Presidential Candidate Joe Biden said in a statement: “Make no mistake: if you are out of work, if your business is closed, if your child’s school is shut down, if you are seeing layoffs in your community, Donald Trump decided today that none of that — none of it — matters to him,” Biden said in a statement released by his campaign.

Hours later, Trump tweeted in an effort to calm voters after the distressing news, saying: If I am sent a Stand-Alone Bill for Stimulus Checks ($1,200), they will go out to our great people IMMEDIATELY. I am ready to sign right now. Are you listening Nancy?

Trump also called on Congress to immediately approve $25 billion for airlines and $135 billion the Paycheck Protection Program to help small businesses.

Is he trying to scare voters or show that he’s the President for the job? Leave your comments below!
