The 2,232 page Omnibus bill includes a specific clause barring funding for a wall on the southern border that mirrors the new prototypes already there. The bill reads:
The amounts designated in subsection (a)(2) through (a)(4) shall only be available for operationally effective designs deployed as of the date of the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2017, (Public Law 11531), such as currently deployed steel bollard designs, that prioritize agent safety.

I don't think he does either, but there is a firestorm on Twitter over this bill so maybe his eyes will be opened.
There's a firestorm in my head over it. I'm pissed.
Deep down I know this is the reason for it: I know the GOP doesn't want to be in power. Really. They like being the minority. They are like some people I know that don't want a solution to a crisis...they just want the argument.
SO...once they are in the minority again...they can get on TV and complain about mean Nancy and MEAN Chuckie...and try to convince you and me to send them money so they can fight the evil left. Sorry idiots...daddy taught me: Fool me once...shame on you...fool me twice, shame on me.
They are going to get their wish. 2018 is going to be a slaughter. I know FReepers are crossing their fingers we hold the house...but really? Why? The tea-party gave them the house in 2010 and they immediately stabbed us in the back. I vote them all out and start over.
“Maybe the admin can take the money and re-purpose it.”

By Executive Order?
WTF ?
Trump is basically giving the democrats everything on there wish list for only one thing. Money for the military. That is the only thing that he really gets out of this. Sad.
Need details on this; see my post quoting billyv
If trump signs this monstrosity he is a two-year President and will be impeached in Jan 2019. I will put book on that!!
I think your analysis is exactly correct.
But while he pretty much has no choice, except to sign this, We shouldn’t give up hope.
He will figure something out later.
Yep.
Trump will sign because he is one of the rinos. He has screwed us beyond redemtion . He has lost 30 million supporters today. He is totally finished!
Term limits ala Vince Flynn.
Bull crap!! He is signing a bill thst prohibits him from using the fund to build any WALL!! My gawd . This is a disaster.
You almost got that right but the first letter should be F.
Trump is a wimp!!
Its over!! He is signing the bill. You got punked!!
Well he made a political fatal decision with millions in his base. He is now a lame duck son of a bitch! I hoping for Pence asap!!
I don’t believe for a moment that he has sold us out, as you seem to believe.
He’ll veto the bill!
Please hold your excitement, until President Trump actually signs the bill. Some of us still Praying he doesn’t...and I am believing he will NOT...it should go back for changes!
Friend ,i find your undieing hope so sad. It remind me of the musicians that payed chamber music on the titanic. They all died in the icey water playing sweat violin music. WAKE UP!! It over!!
Trump
Lied about the wall. He is now political history.
