‘Bribing People With Their Own Money’: Crenshaw Attacks Dems On $1.9 Trillion Relief Bill

On Thursday, Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) slammed the $1.9 trillion relief bill passed by the Democrat-controlled House of Representatives on Wednesday, tweeting, “Bribing people with their own money is dishonest and unsustainable.” Crenshaw added, “Democrats just passed a $1.9 trillion bribery bill and they handed our children the bill (with some inflation too.)”

Appearing on Fox & Friends, Crenshaw stated, “Look, if you’re really happy about getting a $1,400 check — again, imagine that, giving free money to people is popular, I get that, but here’s the thing: it’s costing you $5,700, give or take, and if you’re not paying for it, your kids are. Look, if this is really as popular as the Democrats say it is, we’re in a lot of trouble as a country. It means that we have fully given in to this notion that we should be bribed by our government for false promises. And that is not an American thing to do. We have to stop collectively doing that. It’s going to destroy the next generation. It’s already threatening to cause massive inflation.”
