White House Unreasonable On Budget Deal

[Mr.Blonde]

Trump ist rying to run the executive branch like a business. What he doesn't understand is that Congress can go over and around him if 2/3rds of them vote against him. He doesn't have the last word... Congress does.

LMAO, they won't have the votes.


.

Because they won't be able to blame Trump if they go over his head

 

[DJT for Life]

Trump can pull an Obama, and go on national tv and whin because he isn't getting his way.

He doesn't need to do that.

He can just wait until the SOTU address and inform the country
that the empty seats are the folks who are pouting that they didn't
get their way by worrying more about illegal aliens than the American
people.

That will have a much greater impact.

They will go over his head when the people they all work for, that being you and me, get in their asses with both feet. Contact your congress person and use your vote as leverage ...

We the people can bring considerable pressure on our Congressional hired help to do their jobs...especially using the 2020 elections as leverage. A government shut down will bring people out of the wood work, most who live from paycheck to paycheck. When those paychecks stop coming in and government services stop...
we will see who really runs this country.

The vast majority of Americans are unaffected by a partial shut down. If you've been watching the news this morning, it looks less likely immigration will be included in the spending bill and members of the house are looking for a longer term bill.

What that would do, is Trump firmly holding on to his loyal base....and given that such a base hovers at the mid 30 percentile, that "win" is a hollow one.

 

[OKTexas]

So what you're saying is the commiecrats want to hold a whole nation of 320,000,000 citizens hostage to benefit 800,000 illegals, right? There's no reason DACA has to be included in the spending bill, they have till March to address it.

WRONG.......until the midterms, democrats' ONLY leverage to bring about a resolution on the DACA issue is the CR.......If democrats cave in, they will face exactly the same confrontation in mid February when yet another CR vote would be looming.

So you have no problem with the commiecrats holding the whole country hostage for 800,000 illegals. I guess you could give a shit about 320 million citizens. Also they are talking about a longer term bill.

I think in some ways everyone will be affected to some degree. If people don;'t get their social security checks and federal pension checks there could be far reaching consequences that go beyond the plight of beneficiaries.

Raj Shah when appearing on the CNN Chris Cuomo show last night really gave the impression that the White House is being completely unreasonable about the Budget negotiations. Everyone knows that the Democrats have conditioned their necessary support for such a bill on getting a DACA deal. Mr. Shah statements on this issue indicated the President needs to have a long list of issues satisfactorily addressed for him to sign the budget bill. Mr. Shah's indications are the bill has to have things like an increase in the number of border patrol agents, a new removal system that expedites the deportation of foreigners illegally found to be in the U.S. besides the wall, stopping chain migration and cessation of the diversity lottery program. This is completely unreasonable, it is too extensive of a bill. The Democrats are only looking for legalization and a path to citizenship for childhood arrivals and the White house in return wants an agreement to a long wish list of major concessions for Democrats. What the White House is talking about is a comprehensive immigration reform bill and then from the Democrat standpoint you're talking about legalization for the eleven million illegal immigrants in America many that have been here for decades. The White House is guaranteeing a government shut down with talk like this!



Raj on this program concisely gave President Trump's position on the legal immigration issue when he said the President wants only a merit based system a system that only takes the best and the brightest. This is not virtuous. This is not what great Presidents, great citizens and great Republicans like President Ronald Reagan would advocate. Most American citizens ancestors who emigrated to America only offered manual labor but they were good people who made citizens with good character and help make America an example for the world. Many countries throughout the world because of their economic predicament don't have a very good education system and because of those facts their citizens who want to emigrate to America don't have skills but those people often have more valuable assets the character to work hard and the courage to build businesses and they bring those assets to America and end up making a significant positive impact in America. President Trump's course wants to ignore this reality to America's great detriment from both a country character standpoint and a country practical benefit standpoint, I'd venture to guess the vast majority of the American people don't want this course because they see this loss and hope it is not put into law!

DACA has NOTHING to do with our budget. FUCK the democrats

Wanting to focus on THE BUDGET and not some unrelated bullshit is unreasonable?

What you don't understand is the president decides what essential services are during a shut down. He can spend every dime coming into the treasury to keep them going.

Um... The house holds the purse strings...They decide what comes in and out of the treasury. All the President can do is borrow from China or some other entity if the House refuses to fund anything...but I believe there is a congressional precedent that established minimal payments to keep essential services going...

You are half right. The Congress controls the purse strings, but doesn't micro-manage. Congress did separate essential and none essential, but the heads of each agency control who goes home.

The President can't borrow from China. Congress does that.

Well, he can do what Reagan did and allow Latin Drug pushers to operate unmolested in our country to raise money for his Wall.

SS might be mandatory spending but the funds have are reported to be approaching a state of insolvency due to heavy borrowing. The Tax cuts decease critical revenues needed repay the debt owed to the SS funds to keep them afloat at current payout levels. I don't want to make this about social security. thats another topic for another thread.

Not just Congress. The States and the Supreme Court as well. As it stands, look for the States to start talking about a Continental Congress if this continues. Yes, it hasn't happened since the 30s but it is a possibility unless Congress and POTUS start getting their act together.

That's not a deflection, It's a tradition established by America's conservative hero.
You want me to be accurate in recollecting our history don't you? Trump wants to be as popular as Reagan was among the RW moralists so he might be sleazy enough to do what Reagan did.
