Many sources are reporting that Trump finally signed the pandemic relief bill:
- Trump signs stimulus and government spending bill into law, averting shutdown
- Trump Signs Pandemic Relief Bill After Unemployment Aid Lapses
- Trump signs stimulus bill ahead of government shutdown, releasing checks and aid
- Trump signs COVID relief bill amid pressure, but adds conditions
Not gonna summarize all the bits in it - it's some 5k pages of legalese gobbledygook, but I understand it continues augmented unemployment benefits, eviction suspension, funding to prevent government shutdown, and another direct cash payment.
I'm sure it also has a bunch of "porky pork", but the people are suffering, time is of essence, and it should have been done months ago.

You literally said in this thread "A president doesn't bow." Rather than the witty comeback you think this is by correcting "curtsy" to "bow," it just makes you look more of an idiot by admitting president's do bow, literally in this case.

No, you're the idiot. Trump was receiving an award from a midget. He had to squat down for the short man to drape the necklace thing around his neck. FFS, you're really digging hard to prove that the Trump is as ignorant of protocols as Obama.
The president doesn't bow or curtsey to any foreign power. Ever. In fact, no member of the US armed forces ever bows to anyone, especially not in uniform. It isn't done.

"It would be more accurate to call it a bow." or "The president doesn't bow." One or the other.

Have you ever had a class in reading comprehension?
1. Curtsey is totally inaccurate.
2. Bow would be more accurate
3. but neither 1 or 2 is accurate.
4. Trump squatted to allow a short guy put an award around his neck.
Please, visit your community college and take some remedial reading classes.
