I assume Trump wants to sign the coronavirus checks because hes always thought writing a check is a way to shut someone up after he screws them.

(1,076 posts)That his MAGAts can read at all, never mind decipher his KKK hood signature. Or that 99% of people getting the checks ever look at who signs it. I know I was never bored enough to look. Most people will see "US Treasury" and the $$$$ amount, and say, "Good enough!"
Worse still for the idiot fatass, well over half of the recipients won't see any check at all. Only their own bank balance thanks to direct deposit.

But propagandists gotta propagand!

(1,076 posts)That is all win.
Besides, I won't see that Klan hoods sig, because I've done direct deposit for years now.
Thank goodness.

Trump started it and now he gets smacked back in kind. And many famous and well known people are doing it. Its like watching social behaviors evolving before our very eyes.

(63,221 posts)I honestly don't think I could bear to see that psychotic signature of his even if it was at the end of a check addressed to me. I hate everything about him, including his signature.
I'd rather see something like this...

(10,946 posts)their 2020 tax forms. It is a pre-payment of your tax refund. If you don't normally get a refund or if your refund is less than what you would get, you will owe money.
I will increase my Federal and State withholding to account for additional taxes that will be owed.

(I know, I know. I reduced amount is because income is above the limit. So, we're not really being stiffed, just couldn't help making the connection.)
