1. The new spending bill-veto it!

If you do not veto this bill and take the veto to the country, you will have forfeited any chance to accomplish any other listed objective or even any conservative objective requiring legislative approval except spending and pork during your one term. No conservative with any discernment can remain convinced of your good intentions if you fail to veto this bill.

That is because you allied yourself with rinos in support of that outrageous Ryan care reform bill and even threatened to purge the very conservatives who saved us from that terrible legislation, which not surprisingly is not listed here.

You must either cross this Rubicon and veto the continuing resolution or make camp with rinos and Democrats for the next four years.

I think saying veto or die is a narrative the media would be all too willing to push. It seems like bait to me. Trump would be forced into a veto, else admit defeat. This is NOT a narrative that needs pushed NOR is it true.

If Trump were left hanging by the GOP Congress with an override, it would finish Trump. At that point, Trump could just as well resign and give the Presidency to Pence.

Trump instead should claim victory about how with him as President, we are getting a true bi-partisan effort in Congress now. Something like that.

But in no wise can Trump survive with "resist" from both the Judicial Branch and Congress. That would just be surrender.
