Yeah, the GOP controls all three branches, but they don't have a super majority so it is only trivia.
As I said earlier, putting themselves in a position so that they appeared to be cutting off pay for the military and denying health care to children so they can keep illegal aliens here was an incredibly stupid thing to do. It doesn't matter if that is true or not as the spin-scumbags are going to make it the perception. If it was a GOP trap then well done, but it seems to be just incompetence on the D side. I'm surprised the GOP didn't bring grandma out in a wheelchair and say she wasn't going to get her social security checks. I guess they didn't want to rub it in.
I disagree ROb. They blew reconciliation for the tax scam rather than pass a budget. That's a failure of governance at the highest level, and it was done for campaign donations. This congress has had a year to pass a budget. They've punted because they don't want to do the work we sent them to do. They are playing the reality TV game set up by trump and it's hurting every American.
They need to stop playing politics and get stuff done. We've had an obstructionist majority for over 7 years now. They don't pass budgets. They don't pass easy legislation. They just act like fools with our money. It's time for a change. It's time to vote in your primary's for moderates on both sides rather than letting the party choose for you.
