Biden looked happy to sign it in this article. And his happy handlers will make sure he does even if he forgets.

“Trump just doesn’t care all that much about political policy. Conservative policy in particular. Politics is just another reality show he can star in.”

Some truth to that. However he has been a warrior on several issues of interest to conservatives.

Trump is the only game in town ... until he isn’t.

Show me the link please

Here's the whole story. Find your own damn links.

Former President Donald Trump called Monday for Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and other GOP senators who voted with him to pass the $1.7 trillion spending bill last month to face primary challengers.

The 76-year-old Trump, writing on his Truth Social platform, first hailed Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) becoming House speaker and then blasted McConnell (R-Ky.) and the other GOP senators for caving on the spending bill before Republicans could take control of the House on Jan. 3.

“We must now stop Mitch McConnell,” Trump said before once again referring to McConnell’s wife, Elaine Chao, with a racial slur.

“It’s as though he just doesn’t care anymore, he pushes through anything the Democrats want. The $1.7 TRILLION quickly approved Bill of the week before was HORRIBLE. Zero for USA Border Security,” the former president said.

Biden will gloat about getting the best of McCarthy. And I guess he has every right to. This should be a learning experience for the House GOP. Any deal with a Democrat is a deal with the devil.

I figured by now that the Freedom Caucus would have move to pitch McCarthy from the leadership. Why hasn’t it happened?

That was in January.

Trump said Nothing about this debt ceiling negotiation after the details were publicized.

You are WRONG

Cite your sources of the 'details', since the possibility of a House bill and Senate bill exist, and you don't specify which 'negotiation'.

No, I'll be dead.

"..and that’s going to help??????"

Help's me, and at 75, that's all that matters to me now. I divorced a husband 42 years ago because he was a mental abuser. I divorced the RNC after 40+ years because they are mental abusers as well. Seems I have a right to choose not to be mentally abused by anyone.

Monday’s fast-approaching deadline to prevent a first-ever default.

I believe there is an article out there that call BS on this claim.
