Well as I considered with measure his words, we need a strong military for our national defense as the previous administration gutted our military and he wasn’t going to get it any other way because he didn’t have enough republican votes and needed democrat votes, I surmise that he made his best deal under the circumstances.

Signing this bill was a foregone conclusion as soon as congress raised the spending caps in early February and Trump approved them.

Yeah, I get the military thing but it sounded to me like that too was a compromise.

Ever notice that all these gov’t shutdown/pass the budget, pass the CR happen just before a holiday or scheduled break when these folks in WDC are all looking to get out of town? Have to get it done and then fly out of there.

It was this kind of Washington swamp activity that I thought DJT was going to put an end to. He got schooled big time today. So disappointed here.
