[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I think Trump/Musk are right[/b] but the timing and execution are terrible.  It's going to be a rough 4 years. [/quote]

I see a lot of this sentiment on Twitter.  Right about what?[/quote]

1500 pages of pork is unacceptable, and included nonsense like paying Egyptian college students $15m, a restriction on forcing a response to house subpoenas, a pay raise for congress, exempted them from Obamacare,  $850k funding for a single Pryde senior housing complex in Boston, 100 percent funding for rebuilding the Key bridge that is privately owned and insured, reauthorization of a state department agency that republicans have accused of stifling free speech especially Covid information etc. And frankly a lot of Republican supported payments to farmers that should be a standalone proposal. This nonsense of stuffing all this pork into a CR before the holidays needs to stop. [/quote]

Johnson should have passed a budget.

But he wasn’t capable of doing so. [/quote]

One person doesn’t pass a budget. Why didn’t the Dems vote to avoid this shutdown? Where is Biden? Presidents historically are in town rallying votes during this process as head of his party.[/quote]

The Republicans broke this, so they own it. There was a deal and Prez Elon blew it up. Oh well. That’s what they do. [/quote]

You seem to think that republicans don’t want to break this process of stuffing pork into 1500 pages of a bill. We do.

If democrats don’t want a shutdown they could have voted to stop it. [/quote]
