Americans Disgusted by $600 COVID Checks Push ‘#LetThemEatCake’ into Twitter Trends
If these public servants are keeping their finger on the pulse of the nation, they won’t dare gloat about the bill later the afternoon.
For members of the US Congress, Monday was not a good morning to be looking through their Twitter feed.
That’s because the internet was very unhappy with the elected officials of America, who spent month after month arguing about how best to keep the people from being financially harmed by the coronavirus pandemic, only to issue a neutered stimulus bill with only $600 direct payments.
Social media users spent much of the day explaining why the sum was completely unacceptable, and their rhetoric reeked of revolution.
Remember when @SecretaryRoss wore $525 slippers back in 2017? Yeah, thanks for the $600 Congress. ??♀️ #LetThemEatCake https://t.co/C99bxFcBtK

Plutocrat Pelosi who is worth $120 million because she has used our government for decades to enrich herself and her corporate donors just called the $600 checks “significant.” This is her #LetThemEatCake moment.

With $600 in COVID relief, you can almost buy a door panel for one of Nancy Antoinette's Sub-Zero freezers.

Alexa, is $600 enough money to buy a guillotine?
