Just hours after threatening a veto, President Trump said Friday afternoon that he had signed the sweeping $1.3 trillion spending bill passed by Congress early Friday and averted a government shutdown. In a morning tweet, Trump said he might veto the omnibus bill because it does nothing to address the fate of young undocumented immigrants known as “dreamers” and does not fully fund his border wall. But speaking to reporters at the White House about four hours later, Trump said he had decided to sign the bill despite his reservations, arguing that it provides much-needed funding for the military, including a pay increase for troops and new equipment.Just hours after threatening a veto, President Trump said Friday afternoon that he had signed the sweeping $1.3 trillion spending bill passed by Congress early Friday and averted a government shutdown.

ROFL. that’s all you have?? Ok go to Huffington Post then BWAHAHAHA Hillary is waiting for you.
Dont worry. I’ll post back to you on Monday when Trump has those bulldozers at the border. LOL.
Trump is a liberal, he has passed the biggest tax increase in CA state history and now he has passed the biggest spending bill in American history. Tax and spend liberal.
If you support him that’s fine, but recognize and admit what you are supporting — the most LIBERAL president in recent history.
WHEN EVER?
You’re childish; there’s a bigger war underway.
In about 60 days or less, the rule of law returns to America.
Much flows from there. You’ll see. Remember I told you.
Haha. I’ve only ever done it just this once I believe. Was in the mood. Sorry that it was you:)
People around here really need to lighten up. Just sayin’.
He had a choice, but he rolled everyone, including the weak hands here on FR.
He proved congress and the Democrats are an easy mark.
Trump rolled them but good.
Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act of 1985.
He just took control of the money.
“Trump is a liberal, he has passed the biggest tax increase in CA state history “
He did no such thing, liar. California is responsible for its State taxes, not Trump, the Tooth Fairy, Santa Clause, or any one else.
You mean the shell of a fence, which cannot use any of the prototypes being discussed last week? And, enforced with which new phantom border agents? There is NO WALL.
Pelosi is laughing at him, and those of us who voted for him.
Don’t give it another thought. We all have our moments.
Have at it. Only the insane and cultists are laughing after Trump’s unforced blunder. In which camp are you?
yes, very clueless. Thanks for the tip. Last week was shocking. On reflection, Congress owns that Bill. Trump is not a Dictator
Trump passed nothing, he signed it. Congress owns it.
see ya tomorrow when the fence is being built LOL. Denial right? Look, I’m not sorry that Hillary is not your president right now. Who dont you make your own Never Trumper blog? ROFL
What is hard to understand. Oh, everything is suppose to be ok because the bill was an Omnibus — time will tell.
Well, I didn’t say that our President considers his supporters sheep — I implied that some are sheep and some are not. Some people will turn against the President over his signing of this HHHUG Omnibus Bill because they are not sheep.
Yes...and they are idiots.
I would accurately refer to them as sheep for falling for the divide and conquer tactics of the DNC Media.
agree about that.
Don’t get any slivers while ROFL. Do wooden heads get slivers, BTW?
