I am considering a VETO of the Omnibus Spending Bill based on the fact that the 800,000 plus DACA recipients have been totally abandoned by the Democrats (not even mentioned in Bill) and the BORDER WALL, which is desperately needed for our National Defense, is not fully funded.

there are actually about SIXTY MILLION Americans who will throw out their math books, insist that 2 plus 2 is 5, and demand that their kid's school teach that.

We dont ultimately have a Rump problem, that would like saying the blithering, babbling, homeless mentally ill guy on the corner asking for a buck or two is the problem, he's not.

Bad analogy, that man on the corner is a better person than Rump and adds more to society than Rump but my point is Rump cant do all this tremendous damage to our country and the planet without the support of SIXTY MILLION assholes, aka deplorables.

Got $1.6 Billion to start Wall on Southern Border, rest will be forthcoming. Most importantly, got $700 Billion to rebuild our Military, $716 Billion next year...most ever. Had to waste money on Dem giveaways in order to take care of military pay increase and new equipment.
