Speaker Paul Ryan Will Fund Planned Parenthood but NOT the Trump Border Wall
Gateway Pundit ^ | April 26, 2017 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 04/26/2017 8:46:05 AM PDT by HarleyLady27

Republican leadership is looking to fund Planned Parenthood in their latest spending bill but not the Trump border wall.

Could these lawmakers be any more out of touch with their base? CNS News reported:

“ When Donald Trump stood in the lobby of Trump Tower on June 16, 2015 and announced he was running for president, he told all who listened to “mark” his words.

“I would do various things very quickly,” Trump said.

“I would repeal and replace the big lie, Obamacare,” he said.

“I will build a great, great wall on our southern border,” he said. “And I will have Mexico pay for that wall…

…Congress faces an April 28 deadline to pass a new government funding bill.

There is currently no talk that it will include language to prohibit funding of Planned Parenthood.

But there is talk that it will not include the language that President Trump has requested to provide $1.4 billion to begin his project to build “a great, great wall on our southern border.”

The Republican House can pass and send to the Republican Senate a bill that funds the border wall but not Planned Parenthood. Or they can pass one that funds Planned Parenthood but not the border wall.

The former course of action would fulfill the campaign promises that got their president elected. The latter would appease congressional Democrats and the liberal press.

So, which will it be?

The McArthur amendment exempts lawmakers from their new healthcare law. Another NJ republican to bow down to. What a bunch of swamp filling crap.

RE:”I don’t see where President Trump is at fault in any of this....To have anything done, you have to first go through the House of Representatives, then on to the Senate”

Regarding building the Wall he did make a campaign promise to get that $$$ from Mexico NOT the US.

After the election he started talking about congress funding it.

If he just keeps that promise there wont be an issue.

NOPE! Trump needs to show both houses of congress he is serious about his veto power/budget. Give us the wall in whole or part, give us tax relief, give us repeal/replace or non essentials will be shutdown.

Hardball.

What about this is surprising?

They-Are-The-Establishment

Right and Left has become irrelevant. There is the Establishment Left (made up of all Democrats and most Congressional Republicans). And there are the nationalist rebels. That’s the world we have now.

“This isn’t about ideology. It’s about function.”

It’s about blackmail.

The democrats are holding the republicans hostage threatening to filibuster the CR. And the republicans are caving.

If they want to filibuster and shut down the government because of a wall, I say let them do it. It will rally the republican base and make them look like fools. I don’t see the downside.

He’s not THEIR president. If he wants to fulfill his promises he’s going to have to start running against his enemies. Find someone to primary them right now and get started. Let them piss and moan all they want for the next two years then they can become lobbyists with no one to lobby.

I really wouldn’t expect the feckless GOP to do anything other than that.

These guys are pure crap.

We have no confidence Ryan, the RINOS or anyone in power is in favor of funding a wall-EVER.

No wall, no vote, no majority for the Republicans. The only problem with that is the WANT to be the minority party.

Is there any indication that the Republican like being the majority? I see none. They would be happy if Hillary had won and they were in the minoroity. The are weasel dicks. All.

I think Trump will be able to find the money from other sources, he is determined to build the wall.

I agree, We the American Voters are the ‘term limits’ law...if they don’t do what they told us they would do, replace them...been saying this for years...

We in Utah are going to replacing Chaffetz another RINO, hopefully we can find a good conservative that isn’t a Romneybot, or Egg McMuffin to fill his seat...

We are working on it...

You’re wrong.

This is the last chance I am going to give the GOP to deliver.

If the GOP fails to deliver, I will never vote GOP again.

That includes 2020 particularly.

I mean business, I’ve had it with their crap.

I am beginning to believe that Mark Levin is right.

The only solution left, short of violence, is article 5 convention of states...................

Yes indeed...I fully disgusted with them and then some. They could be doing so much and instead of supporting the people they’re only concerned about welding their own power where they determine best serves their own interests.

They have now surpassed there former failures and become the enemy of the people IMO.

“You are the only one projecting that nonsense onto us. “

Who’s “projecting”?

Read all of the “if they don’t do xyz by abc, them in staying home” posts all over FR.

If you cats think it’s nonsense then why the hell do you all keep posting it?
