“He sold us out on the budget agreement this morning.”
everyone sold us out on this ... as usual.
Trump has only so much political capital and has to pick his fights. If he shut the government down indefinitely because of this he’d be unable to achieve those things that are really important, like halting both legal and illegal immigration that are destroying this country and dozens of other specific promises.
If is fundamentally up to Congress, in this case a Congress dominated by the GOP, to produce a budget - the Constitution says so. There are hundreds of thousands of spending matters in a budget bill and Trump can only say yay or nay to them all, even if he doesn’t like a few or many items in the bill. The primary fault is with the fake conservative GOP Congress ...
I doubt you are, and I know I’m not saying to Trump never veto a budget bill if you don’t like it.
I’d like to see him veto some of the graft.
We’ll see how it goes.
