Trump wants congress to do it job and part of that job is putting together a budget. He just gave them three months to show they are capable of doing their job.
Oh that's clever.... to suggest Trump made a deal with Pelosi and Schumer's agenda to give the Republicans time to get their act together is priceless! Pure bovine scatology pap, but clever!
I don't fall for it.
Like every other typical liberal, self-identifying "Conservatives" now also believe money grows on trees, just like your average Leftist. They think Congress should appropriate whatever it can or the Executive should just make deals with whomever he can to print more money out of thin air to hand out to whomever the government has decreed are the beneficiaries of everyone else's hard-earned money.
Then go on camera and try to shame everyone opposed to what was done because it's "for disaster relief' and "we cannot play around with disaster aid" - ignoring the fact FEMA exists with an annual budget to handle and deal with disasters on a major scope already.
And if, disasters dwarf the existing 17 billions - a clean bill for relief should be drafted, passed and signed.
But no. DeeCee has to skim their cut of whatever funds there are for themselves first. Get rich off of a disaster because more funds are needed.
Trump got FEMA the money FEMA needs to deal with Harvey and Irma.
FEMA already has an annual budget to the tune of billions. The debt ceiling and all the bloated trillions to extend government's open-ended credit card has nothing to do with disaster relief.
But you knew that already.
This is just about making Trump out to be the Beneficial Dear Leader that can weed whack Congress that you want to make him out to be.
Trump is just filling the swamp with more stagnant water and money wrung from our pockets while calling it disaster relief.
