Disaster aid for who?

[dan on the right]

No Democrat, except maybe Joe Manchin will vote for the Republican bill. Can’t pass cloture vote.

A 3 week Continuing Resolution - Schumer’s bill - I have a sick feeling will bring over a dozen or so weak Republicans and get to a vote. House will then pass.

So much for McConnell not putting a bill on the floor that the President won’t sign.

I’m fearful the President might just sign a 3 week CR if the House passes a clean one as well. Heat is too much. Then we can negotiate... (sure.)

Kick the can 3 weeks....

Democrat “bipartisan” Bills? List the Traitors.

Any Democrats Voting for the Republican Bill so we can call it “bipartisan” as well?

It'll also include $12.7 billion in disaster aid.

Ahh, nothing like the obligatory, good old fashioned, pork. Let's see how much of that $12.7 Billion is unrelated to "disaster aid."

Trump knows that his base would be very unhappy if the government re-opened ad there was no funding for a wall. But can you imagine how the left core of the Democratic Party would react if Schumer and or Nancy the nut actually agreed to fund a wall. Its a stalemate. The only real solution is for Trump as Commander in Chief to order the Army Corp of Engineers to build the wall and use existing Pentagon funds for its construction. Withdraw from just some of the debilitating foreign entanglements and plenty of money will be avaiable.

New York Times reports a deal between Turtle and Chuck U that will include border wall funding and reopening the governmehg for eight weeks.

It puts Nancy in the akward position of torpedoing a bipartsan spending. bill.

Looks like Trump won the shutdown battle.

All spending begins in the House.... Att:Paul Ryan

Okay; it’s time to split the country up. Conservatives get everything between Canada and Mexico and the commies get L.A., The Bay Area, and NYC. We may consider moving out of DC so they can have that mess heap too. I think this is a very generous offer.

Alternatively we can deport all leftists to any country who will take their sorry miserable butts. Preferably communist countries since they seem to think it’s greener on that side.

All bills start in the House. If the Senate starts a bill and sends it to the house. Then the house has to vote on it as is. If the house changes anything, One word, one period, then it has to go back to the senate and voted on again. The house can take up the senate's bill but can't change a thing. That's how the ACA Obamacare got passed. That's why Nancy didn't won't anybody to read it. It's called reconciliation. Mitch and the president send this bill to Nancy, if she turns it down then the whole government shut down is now Nancy's fault.
