    One drop more, I reckon, than you would have ever gotten out of a Republican President.

      “You criticized Biden, therefore you must be a trumpist!” is the only defense centrists have anymore.

        I am too lazy to argue that the OP argument makes no sense in an ongoing program, or that it is not justifiable to say too little when there was zero in the first place, or go over the history of this issue which was stopped by various government organizations (checking notes) three times…but no, I’m not claiming anyone is a Trumpist.

          If you’re not claiming anyone is a trumpist, there’s no reason to bring up trump as a whatabout to criticism of Biden.

      You reckon wrong. Did you forget Trump gave out stimulus checks? He even wanted his name on them.

      In 2008, George W Bush, to counter the financial crisis, signed the Economic Stimulus Act, which provided tax rebates to Americans.

      There you go. Two recent examples where we got drops from Republican Presidents.

          You used a blanket statement to try and illustrate a point that you wouldn’t ‘ever’ get money like that from a Republican President. Now you want to make it seem like you’re ONLY talking about Education. Man, you just move the goalposts because you’re lazy and don’t actually have anything of value to add here. I’m done wasting my time on you.
