I think that is the plan to destroy the Trump presidency (and the GOP). Make him break so many of his promises that his voters become totally disillusion and stay home in 2018. Then the Rats take the House and Senate in 2018, Trump is then a lame duck for the next 2 years. He got to veto this CR or he is finished. This CR represents everything he ran against.
Fortunately it’s not 2018 yet. Trump still has a couple of months before the next election.
