Really folks, he is going to go outside the box. What are you willing to accept from this creep?
We will be forced to make a choice.
He will threaten to shut down the government if Congress doesn’t send him a bill. Or, he will do it anyway and say he won’t ‘reopen’ until Congress sends him a bill.
Of course, this really means that +/-15% of government is actually on shut down mode, but they all get their back pay, so it’s trifling. But it’s grandstanding, which is about his only ploy. He’s using it like a ‘wait until I tell your father’ routine.
