Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) said Friday night after spending part of the day with President Trump that the president is "more determined than ever" to stick by his demand for bigger stimulus payments for Americans than approved by Congress in a bill passed this week.

Graham's remarks come as Trump and Congress are locked in a standoff over the size of payments to millions of Americans as part of the latest COVID-19 relief bill, after the House and Senate overwhelmingly passed legislation that Trump has criticized and not signed, putting it in limbo.

After spending some time with President @realDonaldTrump today, I am convinced he is more determined than ever to increase stimulus payments to $2000 per person and challenge Section 230 big tech liability protection," Graham tweeted on Friday night.

"Both are reasonable demands, and I hope Congress is listening. The biggest winner would be the American people," he added.

Graham, a top ally of Trump's in Congress, weighed in after spending time golfing with the president at his club in West Palm Beach, Fla., on Friday. The president is staying at his nearby Mar-a-Lago resort for the holidays.

The $2.3 trillion government funding and coronavirus relief package arrived at Mar-a-Lago this week though its fate is unclear. While he has not threatened to veto the bill, the president has also not said if he'll sign it.


Trump has been at odds with Congress this week over the latest coronavirus deal, with his surprise opposition to the legislation throwing the latest relief bill and government funding package into uncertainty.

The president has criticized the $900 billion COVID-19 deal, which came after months of slow-moving negotiations between both parties as well as his administration, by focusing on the size of the payments to Americans. He has called for $2,000 payments instead of the $600 payments that lawmakers approved along with a number of other provisions to provide economic relief amid the pandemic.




The coronavirus deal was passed along with a $1.4 trillion package to fund the federal government through October. Republicans have urged Trump to sign the legislation, with unemployment benefits set to expire Saturday and a shutdown looming starting Tuesday unless the president signs the bill or Congress passes a new measure and the president signs it.

The president indicated in tweets on Christmas Day and on Saturday that he was still pushing for bigger payments for Americans.

"Made many calls and had meetings at Trump International in Palm Beach, Florida. Why would politicians not want to give people $2000, rather than only $600? It wasn’t their fault, it was China. Give our people the money!" he tweeted earlier Friday.




"I simply wan [sic] to get our great people $2000, rather than $600. Also, Congress should cut the 'pork,'" he added in another tweet Saturday.

Trump has separately criticized an annual defense policy bill, referenced by Graham, and vetoed the legislation this week. The president blasted the 2021 National Defense Authorization Act for failing to repeal a key liability shield for social media companies, known as Section 230.

Congress will hold an unusual holiday session in the coming week to vote to potentially override the president's veto of the mammoth defense bill, which has been passed each of the last 59 years. The bill authorizes special pay and bonuses for troops, training programs, military projects and other operations.

Those that I know who voted against Trump have started lamenting even before he leaves office.

Here is a country that wants to help its citizens with mere $600 but wants to give billions to already rich foreign countries and you say they have sense.

First year after Trump's exit, many Americans brains will be returned to default settings.

Lie. Lies from the pit of hell. It’s all about him. Selfish f00l. Expunging names of racist figures from military facilities is great for national cohesion. Democrats and republicans agree. 2k for each American extends the national debt. The GOP, his party are against it.

The id10t wants to remove protection for social media, as payback for not letting him propagate lies via twitter. As payback for tech giants deploying high tech AI that blockRd Russian bots from influencing the elections in his favour. Bloody looser needs to be tied to a stake

What a plunker. He gone, and he’s going to jail! F00l

But his country and his people don't love him, it means he wasn't really relating and influencing his people, that's bad leadership.
