Goncalves: Calls for unity during pandemic

Posted


I have a question for those people who are very upset President Trump has signed four executive orders regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.

Were you upset with President Obama when he signed DACA, even though on many occasions he was asked to and replied that he had no constitutional authority to do so?

Because Congress has not done the job it should do, Obama, who said “I have a phone and a pen,” did it. There was no criticism from the media because they have always favored Obama and were afraid to criticize him because they would be called racist. That is a fact.

The Trump Administration has been negotiating in good faith, but Pelosi and Schumer who have constantly opposed anything Trump has proposed, refuse and insist on their insane $3 trillion package. It’s their way or the highway, as usual.

The president also proposed a “skinny bill” to give the unemployed the additional money till the end of the year — the Democrats said no!

President Trump had no other option than to sign the executive orders because he knows many people are hurting. The Democrats need to stop playing politics and work with Republicans to help the American people through this crisis.
