Trump has the veto pen so in this case he does have a “dictatorial” move. The fact that he is accepting this hugh win for Pelosi and Schumer is my snap point. Stop using the “he is only one guy” excuse. Veto this budget and let Congress override. That is a win.
Is it really that easy? What about all of the ensuing sound bites blaming the President for the fact that we still don’t have a budget, despite the constitutional mandate to do so? And then if the Congress continues to send poison pill budgets, knowing that he will veto them and give them more fodder to attack him, knowing the media will amplify their message and suppress anything he has to say?
The Congresscritters are purposely putting him into a no win situation. Don’t blame him for it. Or do you think you could do better? If so, how would *you* force congresscritters to adhere to the Constitution and do the will of the people?
The Swamp is not going to be easy to drain, nor will the process be fast. And it will fight tooth and nail every step of the way. I truly see Trump as our best chance to prevail; if too many give up on him, it’s hello socialist dictatorship and the end of the US. We will not see freedom again in our lifetimes if he fails—which he will, if too many people take your attitude.
Yep, it’s a big win for Democrats and RINO’s, and a loss for conservatives and those who care about the future health and survival of their country. All budget caps busted, and full steam ahead on giveaways. Line up to the trough and get your billions and billions of American dollars for whatever your little hearts desire!
2,232 pages?! Really? Did any lawmaker pause to read even a single page of this monstrosity? $1.3 TRILLION just to get us through to September?! Unbelievable. And to think, the deficit this year will ‘only’ be $1 Trillion. It’s only printed money, what could possibly go wrong?
