That’s what the CCP media want you to think. He outsmarted them. He invoked the 1974 Impoundment Control Act to hold back the pork up to 45 days. But when this Congress adjourns in a week, the funds are no longer authorized. Use it or Lose it! Everyone in government knows this. Funds have to be used in the congressional session when they were appropriated. Trump got Americans $600, averted Shutdown, suspended pork, and $2000 direct to Americans in standalone bill tomorrow. Pass this around b/c some folks don’t understand the details.

I don’t think this is true at all. The funds authorized will be used—giving taxpayer money to illegal aliens, etc. Plus, restricting border wall construction along parts of the Mexican border will definitely still stand. Trump gave away everything he said was important, the very things we voted for him to accomplish. You can put lipstick on this but it is a sell out.
