President Trump used the “Barack Obama method” by extending federal unemployment benefits and introducing a tax holiday through a series of executive orders, “one of which extends the law in a way that a future progressive president will surely quote as president , “the editors of the Wall Street Journal complained on Monday.
The paper gave the president credit for defending what it called the “multi-trillion-dollar blackmail” of House member Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., And her “wingman,” Senate Minority Leader Charles Schumer, DN.Y.

Pelosi, the administration wrote, has offered Trump and Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin essentially “conditions of surrender” that included a $ 600-a-week federal unemployment benefit amid a handful of most-related actions, prioritized by liberals .
The Journal wrote that some of the claims included $ 800 billion in federal aid to states, despite the fact that Trump has maintained that he does not want such a program that could prove a backdoor for poor-run Democratic-majority states to systemic fiscal solve problems.
The paper went on to call Pelosi out for “partisan hypocrisy” after she accused Trump of acting in an “absurdly unconstitutional” manner by issuing orders while accusing Obama of “pin and phone” executive actions with ObamaCare and illegal immigration.

“These columns were against Mr. Obama’s orders, and one constitutional abuse does not justify the other,” the administration said. “Mr. Trump’s FEMA order is a bad legal move that a ‘President Kamala Harris’ could cite if a GOP congress blocked its agenda for, say, climate change.”
Despite her skepticism about the constitutionality of the orders, the Journal said that Trump had received significant levy on Congress Democrats.
