We would be better of if we got rid of Congress....
Send everything back to the states
except defense....that way The swamp would drain with no money to steal
The Republican’s weakness and willingness to betray their platform is going to cost them greatly in this.
Sorry but I stopped reading when I saw Washington Post.
The Left plays the GOP like a drum.
I love Trump but I hate the GOP.
Trump gets it. The GOP never will. The GOP are the Left’s useful idiots.
I reject the WaPo’s premise. Pelosi is the one with a problem.
I read the headline, and before I even checked to see which paper it was from, I already new it was the Washington Compost. Recognizing their style of headline, without actually knowing who published it, is so easy, even a caveman could do it.
I read somewhere the Obamacare website alone cost MORE than president Trump’s entire border wall.
I wish DJT despised the GOP as much as I do.
Happens every budget cycle .... the republicans take the blame for what democrats do
FAKE, FAKe, FAke, Fake, fake story. Then there was Papa Bear, and Momma Bear and Baby Bear...Then it was too hot.....
Someone remind me. How long did we go with NO BUDGET AGREEMENT
When Obama was flailing around playing president?
Interesting article here

THIS IS THE DEMOS RESPONSIBILITY.
DOES WASHPO THINK WE ARE STUPID OOOR ARE THEY STUPID.
How are the Republicans in “disarray” when the dems own the House??
Thanks republicans for screwing Trump and America last year. But that was your mission all along, wasn’t it? Disable and impede Trump until the democrat part took over the house.
Now you can go back to telling us how important is it for us to vote in Republican majorities again.
Not a reason in the world to raise those austere budget caps!
I don’t see any way of negotiating with the House. “they’re not nuts they’re crazy”
Perhaps they will just live with an indefinite shutdown. Nothing Trump tries to do will be enough for these dems. The dems will blame the shutdown on Trump and think it will help them in 2020.
Remember, we started out as a one party system.
The House controls the purse strings and it’s in the democRats hands.
I guess it’s asking too much for the Washington Post to grasp such a nuanced point, such as this one.
“GOP in disarray as budget impasse threatens shutdown, deep cuts — and default”
GOP? How about the Leftists instead? Do they ever take responsibility for anything?
“ Failure to do so would force the government to make difficult decisions about which obligations to pay”
No, not “which obligations to pay”; “which programs to cut.”
It’s WAPO, so likely BS. But it does strike me that GOP and “disarray” have become largely synonymous.
