Part of me wants President D***head to veto the budget bill

[scheming daemons]

The ensuing chaos, with Ryan and McConnell scrambling, will be joyous to watch. In addition, $700+ billion in military spending will get thwarted...albeit temporarily.

Maybe many of the Republicans in congress who stuck their neck out to vote for this bill will finally grow a set with respect to protecting Mueller. Maybe they'll realize they are better off with Pence's rubber stamp.

Having the ensuing shutdown be completely, unambiguously, 100% blamed on Trump would also be glorious.



For all of these reason, I think he's bluffing... and will sign it.

3. Yes and people like me will be out of work again .

Playing games with government funding is never good. You better have a real good reason before taking drastic steps like that. It affects people's lives.

4. The Dems got some good stuff in that bill.

The military got too much...but we got some serious money too.
