Since January, Trump has known a deadly virus was loose on the world. He did nothing but accuse Democrats of creating a hoax, calling the pandemic a Chinese virus. After much pressure, he is planning aid from the federal government. 

Now that everybody is realizing the seriousness of this virus, late Sunday evening the Republicans and Democrats are working on a stimulus bill. The one problem is that the Republicans want people who make under $75,000 to get only $600 while those over $75,000 to get $1200.

How many workers in Eureka make over $75,000? Isn’t this backwards? Or, Republicans have learned from their leader Trump that words can mean whatever you make them mean?
