Americans rage against #GOPSlushFund and #TrumpSlushFund as stimulus bill fails for second time

For the second time in just 24 hours, the Republicans’ stimulus package failed to pass. The GOP members took to Twitter to attack those refusing to give them a blank check that contains, among other things, a $500 billion slush fund to use however Republicans want.

There is a Democratic bill that both parties have been working to negotiate out of the House, so it’s unclear why Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) can’t wait for both parties and chambers to negotiate the final bill.

Twitter responded to the vote failure with the hashtags #GOPSlushFund and #TrumpSlushFund. You can see people shaming Republican senators and other comments from Twitter below:

Can we please all agree that this experiment of having a dumb TV host and shady real estate developer with no government knowledge, 5 kids from 3 marriages, 6 bankruptcies, 46 charges of sexual assault, and 35,000 lawsuits as president is not going well at all? #TrumpSlushFund
