Basically he want's a "parity" budget, addressing all kinds of budget issues that haven't even been discussed or negotiated yet. In the history of the United States, there has never been a government shutdown because of funding while the same party is in control of the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. If you are looking for someone to blame, blame Trump and his incompetency. Nope.* This one is squarely on the Democrats and in particular their Senate leader Schumer.* You can try to spin it all you want but even the NYTimes has stated that the Democrats blocked passage of the budget. You've really swallowed the Trump pill. Once again, your party controls the White House, the House, and the Senate. It would have been a no-brainer for them to get behind and pass DACA that TRUMP alone killed last September, and to extend CHIP. Schumer offered funding for the wall and more bucks for the military, but Trump turned him down. The Dems do not trust Trump to negotiate in good faith and work hard to make his word mean something with his party in Congress. Why should the Dems trust Trump to deliver DACA or CHIP? Answer? No reason at all. It's the Trump Shutdown. Spin as you may. |
