President Donald Trump threw a wrench into the stimulus package passed by both chambers of Congress when he tweeted a four-minute video on Tuesday night.
Trump was expected to sign the more than $2 trillion bill that was negotiated on his behalf by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin.
But after Mnuchin assured Congress that Trump would sign it, Trump implicitly threatened a veto. He also appeared to confuse the roughly $900 billion relief package with the more standard $1.4 trillion omnibus appropriations bill to keep the government running and avoid a shutdown.
Trump said he wanted direct payments to be bumped up to $2,000 per person from $600, but it s too late to redo the bill.
