Fact Checking Trump Is Exhausting

Why should the people and taxpayers of America be bailing out poorly run states (like Illinois, as example) and cities, in all cases Democrat run and managed, when most of the other states are not looking for bailout help? I am open to discussing anything, but just asking?

New York State puts $116 billion more into the federal pot. Kentucky takes $148 billion more from the federal pot than they put in.

Here is the Department of Labor page explaining why this is idiotic.

This is from the WH transcript:

THE PRESIDENT: Deborah, have you ever heard of that? The heat and the light, relative to certain viruses, yes, but relative to this virus?

DR. BIRX: That is *Not as a treatment. I mean, certainly fever --

THE PRESIDENT: Yeah. https://t.co/TQ8TdwtJA4

Trump: Postal Service must charge Amazon more, or no loan"President Donald Trump said Friday that he won’t approve a $10 billion loan for the U.S. Postal Service unless the agency raises charges for Amazon and other big shippers to four to five times current rates.

“The Postal Service is a joke because they’re handing out packages for Amazon and other internet companies and every time they bring a package, they lose money on it,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office....

... Amazon was founded by Jeff Bezos, who owns The Washington Post. Trump has often labeled the Post “fake news” after the newspaper has reported unfavorable developments during his campaign and presidency and highlighted the Bezos connection by calling it the “Amazon Washington Post.”"

'The Washington Post- "USPS, by its own calculation, says revenue from package deliveries far exceeds costs. With Amazon perhaps seeking to bypass USPS, the agency must be careful not to price itself out of the market — and thus face a bigger financial squeeze. Moreover, under the law, USPS is prohibited from losing money in the package-delivery sector."


I start out assuming everything Donald says has to be fact checked.
(That's my polite way of saying most of the time I think this guy is FOS.)
