Auntie Maxine: People Could Think Stimulus Checks ‘Bogus’ After Seeing Trump’s Name

Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) on Tuesday evening ripped President Donald Trump for insisting that his name appear on the stimulus checks, even suggesting that people “may think it’s a BOGUS check from a BOGUS president!”

The Washington Post, citing several “senior IRS officials,” reported on Tuesday that The Treasury Department “has ordered” Trump’s name be printed on stimulus checks the Internal Revenue Service is rushing to send to tens of millions of Americans, a process that could slow their delivery by a few days.”

According to the report, “Trump had privately suggested to Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, who oversees the IRS, to allow the president to formally sign the checks.” But since “the president is not an authorized signer for legal disbursements by the U.S. Treasury,” the stimulus checks will reportedly “instead bear Trump’s name in the memo line, below a line that reads, ‘Economic Impact Payment.’”

Did he really want his name printed on the checks? Surely this must be fake news? Can someone reliable actually validate this?

Anyone that stupid and gullible doesn’t deserve it anyway. They can just throw it out without cashing it.

Maxine Waters is a miserable crone who probably buys her votes upon reelection. Her district is most of south L.A. which I again suspect is not top of the line when it comes to voter honesty. None the less she, IMO, could play the part of the wicked witch of the west if Nancy would allow her to borrow the broom.
