folks, dwaynes, gawking euroscum, lend me your ears.
There are two versions of events being presented here.
Version 1: joe biden, a senator for 36 years, vice president for 8 years, and finally president elect, genuinely wanted to give Americans checks immediately. Thats why he said it and why democrats won in Georgia. HOWEVER, after democrats won Georgia and Joe Biden took office he was STUNNED to learn that the president cannot fulfill this promise because Joe Manchin wouldn't agree. (turns out that his vote is important which mr. Biden didn't know until January 20th because he "didn't pay attention in high school civics") So now Joe is earnestly trying to fulfill his promise only to be stymied by the gosh dang senate
Version 2: a politician lied to get votes
