A quick Google search indicates that, so far, the IRS has distributed $218.4 billion in

stimulus payments.

Supposedly, 2.5 million jobs were "created" in the past month.

Unless my math is wrong, that comes ton $87,360 per job.

The payments end in July.

And, Trump just made a $10 million ad buy to brag about how he has "saved" us and how the economy will now "take off like a rocket ship".

Carry on.
