Showdown?

Last edited Mon Feb 10, 2025, 03:32 PM - Edit history (1)

The current spending agreement lasts through March 14.

My charts strongly support a very hard time for tRump (March 13, 14, 15); but with a slight chance he could pull a weakened budget approval off at the last minute Read the entire thing and pay attention to what you read!!!

Democrats look to government funding as their leverage against Trump

Schumer Is from the time before evil t
That you worked together to get things done.
That is kinda how it was
But evil t never worked in gov
It was always his way so now he tells his minions that is how it is and they follow

The Dems need to say enough
They have to give before us
Or if we work with them
It had better be huge consessions on their part
But so far when ever Schumer
Or another say work together they make a bargain and the last second the repubs change it

So I guess Schumer etc has to figure out how many times does he want to
Be played by Lucy and get the football pulled out from under him / Dems ( us)

Bottom line is desperate times call for desperate measures. A fucking lunatic is literally dismantling our govt & Schumer wants to play the collaboration game?

He should, imo, be saying stop your ridiculous appointees & stop terrorizing publ8c servants or we will shut it all down!
