Giveaways and disinfecting you if you’re one of the lucky 3,000 who will experience the Trump megachuch remarks. This happens after visiting the 3 new miles of wall and the 197 miles of replacement wall at the southern border. Likely more Leni Riefenstahl clips as the last time he visited the border. 84% of ICU beds are in use in AZ.

We learned tonight that the President may plan his next rally for #Phoenix. If confirmed I think that would be reckless, given the terrible acceleration of #covid19 cases and ICU admissions there

Arizona also set new records today for ventilators in use – 379; COVID cases in ICUs – 583; & suspected COVID cases showing up in emergency rooms – 1,228.
Arizona’s Sen. McNally offering tax payers a $4,000/person vacation credit, $8,000 per couple in the wake of Trump’s visit smells like a political bribe to get votes, should be exposed. Desperation move as she trails Dem candidate Kelly by 9.8% points in latest Real Clear poll.

McSally’s massive travel stimulus bill would require the travel to be within the United States but at least 50 miles from your principal residence.
You could use the money on travel to your vacation home, but not for vacation home lodging expenses.
The bill “will encourage Americans to safely get out of their homes and discover or rediscover Arizona along with the rest of the amazing destinations our country has to offer after a difficult several months stuck inside,” McSally said.
The bill would pay for your food, beverages, lodging, transportation and live entertainment events (including sporting events).
Note, were you to win a $4,000 vacay on, say, the Price is Right, you’d have to pay taxes on it, so this is a better deal.
Just some very rough arithmetic off top of my head, but if 100 million taxpayers took advantage of the $4,000 tax break that’d be $400 billion. And I think that many more would be want to do so.
I mean, who would want to turn down a free all expense paid vacation?
The bill doesn’t include an offset, so it would swell the deficit. I wonder what a dynamic score might look like though.
Also, the tax credit isn’t refundable. So if you don’t make enough to pay federal income taxes, you don’t get the free vacation.
It’s called the American TRIP Act:
American
Tax
Rebate and
Incentive
Program Act
As in, take A TRIP.
I find it interesting that Andrew Yang RT’ed this thread.
The program would end Dec. 31, 2021, and would be *retroactive* to Jan. 1, 2020. So I *think* that means you’d get two years of $4,000 tax credits?

The American people need to see this.
Donald Trump has mismanaged this crisis we're in so profoundly, that it's almost unfathomable.
There has *never* been mismanagement like this ever by the President of the United States. And we're all needlessly suffering because of it. pic.twitter.com/ul5XoQv9dQ

It wasn’t a rally. It was a symposium where he spaced attendants out by 6 feet so that they wouldn’t get sick and die. You know, the exact opposite of what you’re doing tomorrow, which is literally going to get hundreds of people killed to feed your pitifully fragile ego. https://t.co/ecT6ADQjMw
I never imagined that in my lifetime, a president from the United States committing crimes against humanity, but here we are with Trump#VoteBidenToSaveAmerica

As always I admire your efforts, especially in a segment where I talked about the hole the president is in, but given the amount of times Biden’s own supporters have joked about him staying in the basement, I’m missing where this is the scandal you’re trying to make it. https://t.co/mSZVKSB2hp
If people can go out and protest, riot, break into stores, and create all sorts of havoc, they can also go out and VOTE — and keep our Election Honest. With millions of mail-in ballots being sent out, who knows where they are going, and to whom?
