No of course he can't but instead of working with them as he did with healthcare to produce an abomination or perhaps now supporting their versions of a Rino budget, he could veto it.

Monday on CNN’s “New Day,” Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH), the vice chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, said that he foresees some conservatives coming out against a proposed government spending bill set to come out later this week.
“I mean, look, money goes to Planned Parenthood as you said,” Jordan said to host Chris Cuomo. “Money continues to go to sanctuary cities but no money for the border wall. I think you’re going to see a lot of conservatives be against this plan this week.”

What on Earth are you talking about?
Something’s up. Why the dems get everything they want and Rs have house, senate, and excutive.
______________________________________________________-
Because many of the things that Dems want are also wanted by GOPe.
I’m hopeful this is going to turn ugly for dems with a shutdown.
If I could fit the following into a tagline - I would:
The Republicans have control of the House, the Senate, the White House and now even the Supreme Court.
The Democrats still have the power.
Correct.
I fail to understand why so many are blaming Trump on this.
As I understand things - a stopgap budget till September is already done.
I voted for him because he was a businessman and tough negotiator. He has been neither. This is the exact deal Obama would have given us. I am deeply disappointed.
He should veto this pile of garbage and make them override his veto.
Trump can’t just fire Ryan, McConnell, and most of the rest of the Swamp. He can’t hopelessly alienate them either. He’s got to work within the situation he inherited.
I don’t expect you to grasp that. You like Cruz, who doesn’t work with anyone. Hence, he never accomplishes anything.
To actually take care of the problem the swamp must not only be drained, the entire area must be dusted with a large dose of anti-establishment DDT as well.
Trump’s new book, “The Pussification Of The Deal.”

What a pile of horse manure! Utter nonsense.
Trump doesn’t write the legislation. Your buddy Lyin Paul Ryan owns that.
Yes, Trump should veto this garbage and force Lyin to override said veto.
Like LS mentioned, a few posts up...Trump + 40 against 495 are tough odds.
Doesn’t mean Trump isn’t playing Lyin Ryan for the absolute RINO/Dem/Commie that he is.
+100

You don’t get. This has nothing to do with Trump or Obama.
This is a deal between democrats and republicans in congress. Trump is probably finding out about it right now just as you are.
He has a choice. Veto it and have them override his veto, making him look weak. Or sign it and focus on the positive aspects like 1.5 billion for border security.
Jordan is criticising Congress and very possibly Paul Ryan, I hope.
The BLUE state Republicans are the problem, right?
ObamaCare is dead already, according to Trump. Let it disinitgrate in a few more blue States, if the House can not repackage a beautiful replacement before total collapse.
AMEN.
That’s what I would like to know!!!
Then you should leave and post elsewhere...just because the lobbyists and Super pacs write the bills and shop them around the House and Senate does NOT mean that it is President Trump’s fault!!!
If you can’t be a faithful Trump Supporter then get off the train!!!
1. For the first time in his life, he's really not the boss at all. He has to answer to a "board of directors" comprised of 435 House members and 100 Senators -- many of them among the dopiest people on the planet.
2. He can't get much done on his own at all.
3. He's about to sign a debt extension bill that is no different than what that jug-eared Kenyan exchange student would have signed.
I can't imagine someone like Donald Trump finds this job terribly fulfilling.
NSS!
NSS!
What does that mean?
However Trump handles it, you can be sure he will be focused more on long term success than short term gratification/virtue signaling.
