indeed, the bill needs to be gone over with a fine tooth comb. demfags wordsmith fuckery in all their brain dead bills.

 

Trump team needs to pull out the landmines then expose to public. asswipes are enemy of the people.

-How Trump can get the rest of his wall money — without a shutdown or emergency-

 

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/how-trump-can-get-the-rest-of-his-wall-money–without-a-shutdown-or-emergency/2019/02/12/96a86c82-2ef4-11e9-813a-0ab2f17e305b_story.html?utm_term=.7ba908abecb8

 

'That looming deadline gives Trump leverage he needs to get his wall. Democrats may not fear another shutdown, but will they really sacrifice $55 billion for domestic priorities next year just to deny Trump a measly $5.7 billion for a physical border barrier? Unlikely. If anything, Democrats want to use their new House majority to demand significant increases to domestic spending. Denying Trump his wall in December would lead to severe cuts. And Democrats would hardly have grounds on which to complain, since Trump would simply be following the terms of a budget deal that a Democratic-controlled Senate passed and Obama signed into law.'

 

'Of course, the defense cuts were intended as a deterrent to conservatives, who know they would be potentially disastrous for U.S. national security. But Trump may not care. He wants his wall and may be willing to swallow temporary defense cuts to inflict sufficient pain on the Democrats to get it.'

 

'Trump can’t win a shutdown fight today. But he can win a sequester fight at the end of the year. He should take the deal on the table today, resist the temptation to invoke a national emergency and then get the rest of his wall money in December when he finally has the upper hand.'
