He never asked for $5.6B until December.

The whole thing is manufactured.
There is no way anyone should give into this. And for those of you supporting Trump on this sham, shame on you.

The majority of the Senate does not represent the majority of Americans. It’s a problem.
It’s a problem, to you, that each state has two United States Senators?
It's not consistent with the principles of One Man, One Vote to have California (population 39 million) have the same number of Senators as Wyoming (population 573,000). But then again DC (population 1.5 million) has no Senators at all, so....no one ever said the US democracy was set up in an optimal way.
"One man one vote" means that each person gets one vote when choosing their elected officials. It doesn't mean each person gets "one vote" on whatever legislation Congress is considering.
Actually, the premise of “One man one vote” was established by Reynolds v. Sims, which dealt with discrepancies in population sizes of state legislative districts.

someone isn’t familiar with the Connecticut compromise, apparently.
Not surprising, given the generally cartoonish level of knowledge on display.
I can be familiar with the Connecticut compromise and it can be also true that the majority of the Senate doesn’t represent the majority of Americans. Both statements are simultaneously true.
