Two-time Oscar nominee James Woods blasted congressional Republicans as “RINO wimps” over the just-passed $1.3 trillion omnibus spending bill.
“I never imagined I could loathe the @GOP more than the I loathe @TheDemocrats, but they got me with this suck-ass budget,” Woods tweeted to his 1.36 million followers, adding that he hopes “they get what they asked for in November. When will these RINO wimps stop sticking their asses in the air for the Democrats to violate?”

That’s right.
Trump gets more support by bucking the establishment, not giving into them.
Needs to be said more often.
I’m pleased with Trump.
GOP not so much.
I’m with James. Trump should have vetoed.
This is what happens when Conservatives overlook their principles for political expediency. All too many of us put our trust in Trump, a man with a very flawed character. We trusted a man who betrayed each of his wives even after they gave birth to his child. When most of us come across such a person in our personal lives, we never would trust him in any matter of importance. He has disappointed mightily and we should not be surprised.
Jim, ad me as an unaffiliated author of what you said.
They wouldn’t have overridden his veto. They would have shut down government until he twisted in the wind for maximum damage.

“Anyone should, on balance, be thrilled with what Trump has accomplished in 14 months.”
Thank you for your post. I won’t even attempt to count how many times I’ve logged on to FR and read post after post describing how we’re “winning!!!” with President Trump.
Now people are quitting, giving up on the president because he didn’t do what they expected. I’m not happy at all about this bill, but I trust his instincts. Plus, I don’t give up that easily.
Anyone should, on balance, be thrilled with what Trump has accomplished in 14 months.
That goes without saying but is not relevant to what he did this morning.
...he needs more conservatives in Congress to get the rest of his agenda passed.
That is also a given; however, his action this morning creates a “read my lips” environment that may not only threaten his term in office, but whether he gets more conservatives.
As I argue elsewhere:
“Trump may build a world-class defense at the cost of his presidency; a defense the likes of Pelosi and Schumer will inherit to use or not use in the best interests of America. Arguably, the necessity of making up for lost time re defense wasn’t the critical hinge point at this specific point in time.”
Total horse crap they did this on purpose to suppress the vote
Hopefully there will be a lot of incumbents who lose during the primaries.
Crippled his presidency that was Obama POS who did that!!
POS, POS, POS repeat often!
OH!
We must stand with him NOT just because there is no one else because its God’s will.
This is a sad day for America! All this pork in the budget that should not be in there. They should all be in stand alone bills..
Thank you. People get so short sighted and play right into the enemies hands when they give up on Trump. That’s exactly what the enemy wants.
Trump is being consumed in the swamp he vowed to drain. He sold us out today. Maybe he’s drooling over all his ex girlfriends, lamenting that it is hard to play around now.
The GOP is the problem.
This is what happens when you elect a de facto independent as President of the United States. He has no leverage because he has no more than a handful of supporters in Congress.
Ryan/McConnell did this knowing...
1. Trump would be forced to sign to get the military increase.
2. It would destroy any base enthusiasm for 2018 midterms allowing Speaker Pelosi to lead the impeachment.
3. Considering the many RINO senators, Trump will be convicted.
