The '16 election is being replayed through this "omnibus spending" package. The establishment essentially threw a huge 'take that' into Trump's face, daring him to veto more spending in six months than in the history of the Republic!
No Wall...nothing to fix DACA...full funding for Planned Parenthood...essentially business-as-usual in the Swamp.
Trump voters and fiscal reformers were outraged. Less than an hour for lawmakers to read a massive two thousand page spending plan that does nothing...zero...to reign in profligate spending of money we simply do not have? It was an insult and a message to Trump voters from the swamp dwellers: "we're still in control and there isn't a damn thing you're going to do about it!"
Well Trump fired back this morning with a Tweet "I'm considering vetoing this spending bill"
Game on.
