Not possible
Thread title is a contradiction in terms.
Trump is not capable of such a thing.
Now, he can be made to look good by someone else.
It's rare, but possible.
Only happens when someone marks his card.

exactly, Pelosi and Schumer overplayed their hand and ended up making Trump look good.
now anything the democratic party does about it will make them look even worse

The left should be happy. That is 400 a week going to keep there rioters in spray paint, projectiles, drugs. I sure hope they have enough left for some sort of birth control. Seriously do not want then reproducing. Oh wait, they are all gender neutral.

I am extremely unhappy over the additional $400. It’s really bad policy. That said, it’s about time the GOP uses the same tools the dems use every day. This is how Obama governed and it worked for him. Payback is a bit*h and Trump has finally learned politics.

Stopgap measures.
Won’t help anyone long term.
Short term fix.
We need at least 2,000,000,000 bucks and the presidents offer is peanuts

You are incapable of accepting President Trump is a winner and you are a loser.

The government is not supposed to help anyone long term unless they are disabled. I am assuming you are in favor of sending everyone $2000 a month forever. Don't lie!

Could you please give a specific example where Obama, or more broadly any president, authorized $36 billion/month* in domestic spending without legislation? There are probably some FEMA-related declarations, but those are underwritten by existing legislation and not recurring.
*$300/week in federal money * 4 * 30 mm (unemployed number under traditional state unemployment plans plus the special pandemic coverage)

On a related topic, what do you think of the executive order related to employee payroll taxes? The EO allows you, as an employer (that's why I'm asking you - I believe you run a home health business), to stop collecting the employee-portion of payroll taxes for the last few months of the year. However, the money is still owed. The EO does not cut/eliminate the tax obligation, rather it defers it. Given it's a deferral and not an outright cut,* the employee must repay the deferred amount at a later date (presumably 1Q21). Will the repayment become part of the invdidiual tax filing process? If not, you're on the hook, and you know the IRS takes payroll tax collection very seriously.
*The EO directs the Treasury Secretary to explore ways to forgive the obligation. Without legislation, this is very unlikely.
