Would like to hear how you will spend your $1k/$2k stimulus? ($1000 in April and I think another $1000 in the summer?)

For me, I haven't decided yet but maybe some used or new lenses perhaps to round out my GAS collection (Nikon DSLR user).

I would like to know where he is going to get the money to pay for his trillion-dollar outlay of funds. Perhaps this is a sneak attack on welfare, Social Security, and other checks that he calls handouts

Then you don’t need the check.

Please show us where Trump ever said Social Security payments were handouts. As for the money I would think it would come from the same money tree in China where every recent President got their money to be wasted on supporting i*****l a***ns and people on welfare for generations who are perfectly capable of working except for their own laziness.

We’ll just borrow it. One of every four doLars in our budget is borrowed already...

I suspect I’ll get far less than $1000 because it will be in one based, as it should be.

Trump got the money from Congress, where else?

My wife and I are living on a "fixed income" {Social Security}

Unless we need the money {to make up what has been lost from our 401K accounts}, we will probably give the money to our daughters, who will need all the help they can get.

You can hope or not hope - that is your choice.

There are other people who have lost their jobs, or simply have fewer hours, who were living ‘on a string’ even before this happened. Having mortgage providers and utilities provide mercy will help .... and a little extra money would help if Congress and the President can get together, but in the meantime even some hope is good.
