Millions upon millions of Americans have been struggling, trying to figure out how they're
[4]
going to pay their rent or pay their mortgage. Every month, since this pandemic began more
[10]
than 40 million Americans have already lost their jobs as a result of the pandemic. And
[16]
even in the areas where things are reopening, people are able to go back to work. We're
[21]
now seeing a resurgence of the virus. And a lot of those places that had reopened are
[25]
having to re shut back down the bottom line is that the American people still need relief.
[32]
And the federal government isn't giving them anything. They got a one time check, two months
[38]
ago of 1200 bucks, assuming they made less than 75 grand a year. That's what they got.
[46]
And that was supposed to last them 10 weeks. You know, the Trump administration defended
[51]
it. Democrats defended it. It was crap.
[54]
It was absolute crap, no mortgage relief, no rent relief, nothing to actually help these
[64]
people not lose their homes or their businesses that they have to pay these monthly fees for
[70]
outs. They lose the building, but you know, who is out there fighting for rent relief
[76]
and mortgage relief? Oh, not, not for the public, but, but for themselves, uh, Donald
[81]
Trump and his kids reports this week show that Donald Trump's organization, which is
[87]
run by his two idiot sons, Don jr. And Eric are begging the County of Palm beach here
[96]
in the state of Florida to suspend their monthly rent payments, lease payments of $88,000 per
[104]
month during the pandemic, because that's just too much money. They can't afford their
[109]
monthly lease payment to Palm beach County. And for those who aren't familiar, this is
[114]
for a Donald Trump's Trump international golf club in Palm beach County.
[119]
The property that they sit on was leased from Palm beach County for a period of 99 years.
[127]
And the current lease payment is $88,000 per month. Uh, the state of Florida has closed
[133]
down their golf courses. They are not yet, uh, reopened. And so Trump international says,
[140]
we don't want to pay $88,000 a month. Can you please do something for us? We're not
[144]
pulling in money. So how in God's name, can you expect us to pay out money? That's just
[149]
crazy talk, isn't it? You know what? I hope you don't get relief from this. I honestly
[158]
truly do not for so many reasons, but the most important of which is the fact that you,
[166]
the Trump administration, the man who owns this golf course, that is begging begging
[175]
Palm beach County to forgive their lease payments. Each month, you could have done something.
[180]
You could have issued an executive order that immediately suspended rent and mortgage payments
[184]
coast to coast, border, to border and Alaska and Hawaii, not a single rent or mortgage
[190]
payment during the pandemic, you could assign an executive order.
[193]
You could have told Steve Mnuchin at the treasury department to enact that policy. You could
[198]
have done so many things to give us the same kind of relief that you yourself are now seeking,
[206]
but you didn't. So I hope you fail. I hope they slip a slap you with those $88,000 payments.
[215]
And if you're even a minute late on it, I hope they foreclose. And I hope you lose your
[221]
golf course. And I hope they kick your ass out of Florida. That's what I hope for you.
[228]
Not for me, but on behalf of every single person who doesn't know how they're going
[233]
to pay their bills tomorrow, or when July 1st comes around, or even when June 1st and
[238]
May 1st came around, Americans are suffering and the suffering is getting worse. And your
[246]
part of the reason the suffering is getting worse. And you have the audacity to think
[251]
that we're not going to find out that you're down there with Palm beach County officials
[255]
on your knees, begging them. Please don't make me pay $88,000. I can't afford my rent
[260]
this month. You take care of the people in this country first. And if you do that for
[266]
them, then yeah, I'm okay with you getting your rent payments suspended for the rest
[272]
of this pandemic, but not, not if a single person in this country loses their residents
[281]
because they couldn't pay their rent or mortgage due to the pandemic. If that happens, you
[287]
should get nothing.
