GOPe gives Trump the finger in stopgap spending bill
Canada Free Press ^ | 05/02/17 | Matthew Vadum

The RINOs score yet another victory

The newly agreed upon $1 trillion-plus spending package that will keep the federal government operating through Sept. 30 contains no funding for President Trump’s desperately needed border wall or crackdown on lawless sanctuary cities that let MS-13 gang members run wild.

This is because House Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wisc.) has no interest whatsoever in ending the open-borders free-for-all that has been the status quo for decades. Ryan supports the lawlessness. He profits from it. He may as well cross the aisle and become a Democrat.

I think Trump is afraid of a veto.

President Trump should veto this.
I know he won’t but he should if he wants to preserve his Presidency.
The Uniparty is gutting his agenda and if he doesn’t take a stand he will be forfeiting his base.

The same kind of thing happens in the TX House under liberal Speaker Joe Straus.

He must demand a clean bill. This one is as dirty as they get.

Ryan supports the lawlessness.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Apparently so does the President.
He correctly described Obama’s illegal DACA program as illegal and unConstitutional and now he is running it, so he too is embracing lawlessness.
No elected official should be protecting illegal aliens from our laws.

President Schumer was prepared to veto it, so why shouldn’t President Trump?

Just as much as he was afraid of raining down cruise missiles on Syria.

Shut it down hard.

I heard on a radio call-in show that Mrs. Paul Ryan is not only a Democrat but was fundraiser for the popular Mrs. Bill in 2016. I don’t know if this is true.

Sadly, this appears to be Trump’s “read my lips” moment. What’s next, putting Merrick Garland on the Supreme Court to curry goodwill with the Democrats and the media? We need another two-faced Souter on the Court for the Bush/Trump circle to be complete.

Ryan's budget is an insult to the American people. I want him out. Who the hell does this beta butt boy think he is?

Call him at (202) 225-0600 and listen to his message. To leave a message you have to listen to a list of 5 topics. Press number 6 to leave a message.

Numbers 1-5 are topics this damn fool thinks we care what he thinks, i.e. what he thinks about national security, the constitution, the size of government, health care, etc. This bastard is delusional! Ryan thinks he is POTUS!

Veto it?

And when his veto is overrided, how strong and effective will Trump be then?

His failures at TrumpCare have been embarrassing enough, he does not need any more losses.

Wait till September and then he can step up to the plate in a real way.

(And lets just hope he does!)

c’mom. I thought he was the master of getting people to do things that they normally wouldn’t do. You know, 3D chess or whatever dimension. The Art of the Deal. Stuff like that. What you’re saying is he’s so weak he can’t get it done.
