What's this?

I'm gonna ignore the TDS-infused final paragraph and...

...just point that, while the president can veto anything he likes, had Trump vetoed this bill (not that he wanted to), he would have been accused of mass murder, etc., by every Dem you support, and their Fake News propaganda organ would have blasted that message 24/7 just as they blamed Trump for everyone who died from COVID. Joe Biden -- the guy you voted for -- would have run on how mean old Donald Trump destroyed the economy by not passing the bill. Just as Dems do EVERY SINGLE TIME that Republicans try to push back on spending. The other thing that would have happened is that his veto would have been overridden before the ink dried, so it's a moot point.

As for your claim that the economy wasn't wrecked, we borrowed somewhere between $5T-$10T in less than three years to keep it from utterly collapsing thanks to the COVIDiots. More than 10 million people lost their jobs and tens of millions were underemployed. Thousands of businesses went under. If that's not wrecked, then I don't know what is.

To repeat a final time, Trump and DC Republicans spend too much. But the Dems you support spend more. Hence, your criticism of Trump is simply not credible.
