Not really a political thing, more of a douchebag thing. Plenty more like him out there, I'm sure.

Agree on the douchebag comment, but it’s been reported there isn’t really good oversight, which makes this type of fraud too easy.

Isn’t the government in charge of giving out my money?

Aaaaah, Butchie...
What about the wall? Did Congress appropriate that money, or did POSTUS appropriate it on his own.
Don’t trust your government...they lie to you.

OOPS . . . missed this post by you earlier. I think it deserves a reply. Yes, Congress did appropriate that money. They appropriated it for defense spending. The Pentagon approved it for wall construction. The Supreme Court OK'd it.
I agree with you about lacking trust in the government. Politicians lie. That's why we voters should be far more concerned about protecting and defending our constitutional system of government than about the supposed "character" of political candidates.

Probably a guy Tweety hardly knew, just brought covfefe.
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin told Congress last week that the names of loan recipients and the amounts disbursed as part of the $600 billion-plus Paycheck Protection Program are “proprietary information” and do not have to be made public. Democrats and some Republicans say there is nothing proprietary or confidential about businesses receiving millions of taxpayer dollars. Questions have arisen whether any Trump businesses profited from the tax dollars.

Trump said he's personally providing oversight, I'm satisfied with that
