If you're trying to pull some gotcha moment, I'm for UBI so why would I not support this and participate?

Just because Trump has signed off on an idea does not mean I fully hate the idea. Politics shouldn't be black and white. I think Trump's newest move today of defunding the WHO is a good one. Not for the reasons he said. He's extremely hypocritical and disingenuous by saying they downplayed it when they were almost two full months ahead of him. He should however be pressuring them into not bending to China's will. China is blatantly lying and causing massive worldwide death with their actions. The WHO bending to them makes it worse. I do wonder if that is Trump's true motive for defunding the WHO and he can't come out and say it so he's made up this other bs. That makes the most sense to me considering how blatantly dumb he sounds with his critique. But it is a move I support.
It is not a loan. It is an actual credit. It is called an advance because it is a credit for your 2020 taxes, but you get it right now. The only way it will be an "loan", maybe, is if you qualify for the credit based on your 2018 tax return (or 2019 tax return if it's already filed) but then you don't qualify based on your 2020 taxes. I assume if you end up not qualifying on your 2020 tax return it will make your 2020 taxes higher but I haven't been able to verify yet. I'm interested b/c had some one time issues make us eligible based on our 2018 tax return but won't be eligible based on 2020 unless we have some unfortunate surprises between now and the end of the year.
