But Trump has cost about 14 million Americans a week of federal unemployment aid because he waited until after that aid expired on Saturday to sign the new legislation. President Donald Trump's last-minute threat to reject Congress' $900 billion COVID-19 relief bill backfired after he caved andThe president failed to win a single concession from Congress, which sent the bill to him early last week after passing it with large majorities.

Trump claimed on Sunday that he's putting pressure on Congress to remove billions of dollars in "pork" from the bill, but he has no leverage to enforce this demand after signing the legislation, which he called a "disgrace." Trump is also dividing his own party in the process, as Republicans have overwhelmingly rejected the larger stimulus checks he's calling for. Democrats are pressuring the GOP to follow the president's lead, and the House will hold a vote on Monday on increasing the direct payments to $2,000.
