President Trump signed the 1.2 trillion dollar Omnibus bill today with open frustration over both the process and the product of that bill. Meanwhile, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer heaped praise on Republican House Speaker Paul Ryan and Republican Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell for their help in what Pelosi called a great bill for the American worker.
What wasnt said was how the Republican and Democrat leadership worked together to force POTUS Trumps hand and create a voter backlash they hope will fracture Mr. Trumps base of support among millions of Americans.

How could he sign this bill? said one Trump supporter on Twitter.
WTF??? This was the opposite of MAGA, said another.
Trump just gave 1.2 trillion to the swamp, was another comment.
If the above reactions represent the feelings of a majority of Trump supporters it might very well be the first real crisis of support for the President an outcome that is exactly what Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer were hoping for.
DEVELOPING
Ditch has built a YUGE coalition of NeverTrumpers in the Senate. Anti GOPeer Senate candidates have been throttled. Ditch is Large and in Charge in the Senate. Trouble for Trump (and America), bigly.
So have you gone #NeverTrump, or do you still support this President? It's a very simple question...
I have zero trouble believing this.
Covfefe.
I suspect that much of the way that Mitch and Ryan jammed this on Trump was due to their globalist patrons being very, very pissed about the Chinese tariffs. Congress has gotten filthy rich by selling us out to China. Their paymasters are very unhappy with Trump.
Ive been a long trump supporter, but I am becoming deeply disappointed.
Trump lost his nerve on Friday. He even knew better, that’s why he teased us with the veto threat on Friday before caving.
The buck stops with Trump. He should act as the leader of the party and should have threatened those who did not cooperate. Hes had plenty of time to consolidate and to neuter both Ryan and McConnell.
I am still waiting for charges be brought up on Hillary, Obama and their Minions? Why is Session and the DOJ/FBI lackeys still there? Sorry this a turning point. Lots of promises were made and its past time to deliver (or at least fight).
We have more pressing matters to worry about than what’s going on the Middle east or how flame throwers work.
Is Wictor still on his idiot “trust sessions” shtick? When I was on twitter I had to block him because idiots kept RT him.
“Trump lost his nerve on Friday. He even knew better, thats why he teased us with the veto threat on Friday before caving.”
The fact is no one here knows what variables went into making that decision. What went on behind the scenes. Judging how corrupt are fed govt is, there may have been threats involved.
They all would have done the best they could to shut down military pay and social security and would continue the shut down until Trump reversed it and accepted their bill...
Trump had no choice but to sign the thing...Trump has beat them on most every thing on everything they throw at him...I'm going to give him the benefit of the doubt...
In what bizarro immoral world is it ever okay to sign funding to stop thousands of innocent human lives and sell body parts. In what bizarro world is it ever okay to send money to states that violate federal laws. In what bizarro world is it okay to fund nonsense projects in countries that hate us? I can go on but maybe you get the point. It’s time to stand up and say stop the killing. Stop the excess spending and stop sending money to those who despise our very existence.
Well, I for one will not give them what they want. Why the frack should we play right into their hands? I support our president. Not going to be a fair weather friend. He did not sign this thing willingly.
Those two should be "sunshined." Have their business deals investigated, their associates and relatives scrutinized... IOW, give them the same treatment they are either actively or passively putting DJT through. Let's have some FBI/CIA/NSA files "accidentally leaked." Use a book (Schweitzer's is probably too factual) or some made-up "Russian" dossier - though given The Wattle's and The Weasel's proclivities, more likely Chi-Com and US Chamber of Commerce dossiers, respectively - to start the ball rolling. After all, it is not the facts but the seriousness of the charge that matters, right? Get a special counsel up and running. The Ministry of Propaganda won't replace ALL the flipped-over rocks like they did/do for Obama and Clinton (as in "Rodham").
Looks like Trump can now plan some more road trip rallies and go after his own party and leaders thru this bill.
Both Parties are against Trump and he knows it.
You people are a bunch of spoiled brats who deserve Hillary as your President!
Like I said, they gladly would have let Trump shut the gov't down...And they likely wouldn't have allowed Trump to start it back up without gutting the military provisions out of the bill...And they ALL would have called for his impeachment...What choice did Trump have???
Trump is the only President who has actually tried to shut down the abortion clinics and defund sanctuary cities...
Trump won't give up...He'll try to work around this bill to accomplish what he said he would...
Everyone should watch this...Ignore the messenger...Listen to the message...
