I mean-come on. How many times has this man sworn up and down he was not going to do something and then turned around and did it? Remember “I will never sign another bill like this again. I’m not going to do it again. Nobody read it.”??? Remember that?

But around here-that was “Omnibus GENIUS 5D chess!!! Gonna build the entire wall in 2018 with those funds!

Not! Stop being Lucy.

I like your tag line. I don’t understand why your post 8 got the ZOT.

Trump has gotten the Congress to take up the $2,000, however, that will never pass the Senate.

Trump has delayed some of the pork but it’s only a delay of 45 days maximum and Biden will revoke it.

All in all, it was a horrible political move to tell the Congress he agreed with the spending plan in the first place and then say to the world he objected after the Congress passed the bill. It gave the Rats Amo. And, in the end, all he has done is weakened him and the GOP.

This was handled so badly, I wondered if Sidney Powell was giving him advice.

There will be no President Biden. If there is this bill will be the least of our worries.

Time will tell if your very cynical view is correct. I am unimpressed.

There is NOTHING right now that will give PResident Trump another term. Not Powell, or Wood, or Pence or server raids in Germany, or affidavits from Fake 305 military intelligence analysts.

You have one possible hope.

You are a glass 1/2 empty entity. I think you have nothing other than an opinion like the rest of us.
I think you do yourself and America a disservice by buying into the negative but it’s your right.

Yes, I have an opinion

So far I have been right.

There is only one way I end up wrong.

And it hinges on Arizona....and I dont think they will come through..but it’s possible

graham was sent to deliver a message

maybe he is the one that came up with this

maybe he promised something to trump to get him to do this

and of course, any promise made to Trump will be a Lucy/Charlie Brown football situation....unless the promise was they will back Ivanka to run for office

Have you even read Trump's official statement?

Do you know that there will be a new Congress on 01/03?

How many times are people going to doubt Trump only to be proven wrong days later?

... stops the funds identified for 45 days whether Congress agrees or not...
__________________________________

THIS Congress ENDS in 6 days.

NEW Congress is NOT bound by anything done by current Congress.

Rs held seats in Senate, added seats in House, not considering any seats impacted by election do-overs of nullification.

These are not the actions of a lame duck, defeated incumbent.

Joe-Joe is under indictment in Ukraine, along with claims that the US State Department embezzled 100s of thousands of dollars from Ukraine. Indictment being referred to international courts. Ukraine has released audio tapes of Biden & Poroshenko.

New Congress is of no matter.
Once signed by the President it is law.

After 45 days the monies MUST be spent as the law directs, unless both Houses of Congress decree otherwise- which they won’t.

“NEW Congress is NOT bound by anything done by current Congress.”

Well, unless it is signed into law by the President.
Which this was.

I don’t understand why that is confusing to some.
