#1 Another one is the 2 large expensive military communications satellites that NOBODY in the military wanted added to the Military part of the omnibus bill.

#2 Well, the Inspector General was a little less than the FY18 request, but still more than the House and Senate wanted.

Strange, no?

#3 It's like the Republicans don't understand the forces that brought Trump to power and are just playing the same old game. Very sad, and now we have to hear the old blackmail nonsense about a shutdown.

Someone should put forth a law/constitutional amendment or whatever that divides the budget into parts. Essentials such as military spending and social security can be in one (just to show how massive that one is); and other crap in the other. That way politicians can't threaten seniors and defense every time they want to force some garbage into the budget.

#4 the 2 large expensive military communications satellites

Sometimes the R&D elements of products like this really don't get launched.

#5 The swamp just swallowed Trump.

Pelosi can’t remember yesterday but she just got her budget objectives funded.

#6 I was terribly disappointed to see President Trump sign this pig into law. Downright dispirited, actually.

But now I'm over it. When Mr. Trump won, I told an Obama-supporter friend that he, President Trump, would do things I did not like. And now he has.

Setbacks are time for reflection, not sorrow. Mr. Trump is our President. He will recover from this, or die trying (morbid as it may sound, if literally, we get President Pence. And a whole lot of exploding Prog heads.).

In for a penny, in for a pound. I'm still glad I voted for Mr. Trump and shall not let a piece of crap like this bill get in the way. Once.

Should something as unconservative as this offal reoccur, I'll be getting up 1/2 hour later this upcoming election day than I normally do.

If Mr. Trump can't get this done, let it burn. Having been shown that the Prog-way is, in reality, the only way, I'll have had enough.
