Trump Scores His First Win in Congress
:thumbup:
The president-elect wants an immediate say in how money is spent once he takes office, and Republicans are granting his wish. It didn’t take long for President-elect Donald Trump to make his mark on legislation in Congress. Republican leaders announced Thursday they would punt major spending decisions into 2017 in accordance with the incoming administration’s wishes. That means Congress plans to pass only a stopgap bill that will fund the federal government through March rather than an omnibus appropriations bill that would set spending priorities for the first eight months of Trump’s term. “I think the new incoming government would like to have say-so on how money is going to be spent going into 2017,” House Speaker Paul Ryan told reporters at a press conference. “We’ve got a lot of funding priorities that we would like to have changed relative to the Obama funding priorities. It’s as simple as that.” Had Hillary Clinton won the presidency, Congress in all likelihood would have pushed harder to strike a big spending agreement in its lame-duck session, a move that would have cleared the way for her to focus on other legislative priorities during her first weeks in office. But Republicans know they will get a better deal with Trump than under President Obama, so they will keep spending levels as they are for another few months by passing a continuing resolution in the next few weeks. |
Let the santuary cities lose all possible funding until they vote out their crazy liberals.

Trumps daughter said he does the impossible
Quote:
TRUMP'S daughter stated he does the impossible. WOW-can he bring our population, whose divisiveness was fostered by OBAMA and his surrogate HILLARY, BACK TOGETHER AGAIN?? Can he then get our industrial might back on line with a rising dollar making exports more and more difficult. TRUMP so far has already done the impossible and beat the CLINTON MACHINE. Bringing our people TOGETHER. Getting our manufacturing rolling again. IF, HE CAN DO THAT-I WILL HAVE WITNESSED A MIRACLE. c |
We don't know what the Trump presidency will be yet. We need to hold and let him doing his hiring take the oath of us and proceed for the first 100 days to even get a glimpse. Indeed this is a no nonsense guy who has always maintained tight control of his organization, very aggressive, very direct very much motivated. His transition from CEO to President is going to be a unique study in human nature in watching his readjustment.
In addition he has to divorce himself from his companies and do so without even the mere appearance of a conflict of interest Personal Best Regards: |
very true
