President-elect Musk kills CR to keep government funded
Like Frankie Five Angels I don’t have your head for “big deals,” so someone explain to me exactly why the Democrats should bail Mike Johnson & Company out of this mess. And if the answer is, because the Democrats will get blamed, I don’t think that’s how this kind of thing works. As fas as the moron public is concerned, Donald Trump is already president.
Remember that you are mortal.
“Republicans must GET SMART and TOUGH. If Democrats threaten to shut down the government unless we give them everything they want, then CALL THEIR BLUFF,” Trump and Vance said. “It is [Senate Majority Leader Chuck] Schumer and [President Joe] Biden who are holding up aid to our farmers and disaster relief.”
In a shocking twist, Trump also demanded that the legislation include a debt ceiling increase, which neither party had even been considering. It’s expected to come up in the middle of next year, and Trump made it clear he wanted it to happen on Biden’s watch.
“You don’t know anybody as stupid as Donald Trump. You just don’t.”
