well then that would be a promise broken or not yet kept. But you said
no transparency, and perhaps not with the 5 days but the bills are online, so what exactly do you feel he has kept from us?
On the stimulus If you look at the link 100% posted in his pre election promise he said "non emergency" bills. Now
you may not agree that the stimulus bill is an emergency but he and many others do.
Other than that he's only been in office a few days and had more important things to deal with. Apparently they have people working on the program. If in say 3 months time it still isn't running as promised I will grant your point.

Now I realize you wouldn't recognize a pig if it bit you on the ass, but people who do found the parts they were allowed to examine absolutely loaded with the stuff.
I refer you to the video, it's a spending bill...that's the point, as long as it creates/keeps jobs in place the whole fucking thing is supposed to be one big pork feast.
I do enjoy watching people like Lindsey Graham going on the news decrying the spending going to states. Then when asked if their own state should refuse the money the 180 comes in. It's almost as if they secretly want this bill.

Wow thanks, I didn't know that, I must remember you have mind reading abilities and you know what people think more than they do
BTW now it's over, I was for Barr, but only because of the other choices.

Well, you won't be able to blame it on Republicans, anyway - this is gonna be the biggest tits-up in legislative history.
The dems and Obama were upfront about their agenda, as were the republicans. The voters made their choice.
Your
religious right socially conservative evangelical talking points are just sounding like bitter cry baby whining, not thoughtful, or even factual disagreement or debate.
I'll call the whaaaaambulance
