and?

how does that change the fact Biden promised Georgia voters 2k then screwed them? Why promise $2,000 when Trump had already given $600(he has asked for $2,000 per adult and $4,000 per married couple)?

After Georgia elected two Democratic senators who promised to support $2,000 pandemic relief checks for the public, some voters in the Peach State say they feel 'betrayed' that only $1,400 of additional funds are likely to come their way.

Senators-elect Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock both used the phrase '$2,000 relief checks' during their campaigns, with Warnock even sharing a mocked-up image of what a $2,000 check would look like.

But Joe Biden's relief plan foresees the checks as a mere $1,400 supplement to the $600 payments that have already been signed off by Donald Trump, bringing the total to $2,000 rather than sending out a new $2,000.



Some Georgia voters have been left unimpressed by what they see as semantic trickery, with one person who canvassed for Democrats saying he felt he had 'lied to people' when he promised them $2,000 payments.

'I'm a man of principle and morals and I feel like s**t. I lied to them,' Rogelio Linares told Mediaite.
