So, who took Trump’s threat to veto this monstrosity as a serious threat to end government overspending?

Suckers.

He’s not draining the swamp. He IS the swamp.

I can sense the quivering lips of pouty Trumpidian devotees, torn between condemning this horrible, big government spending bill, and remaining faithful to their liege, no matter what . . .

. . . With a flourish, Trump touted the defense spending included in the bill as reason enough to sign off on a bill that nobody has had an opportunity to read . . . After today’s press conference, I expect to see a lot of praise for the defense spending (which was needed), as if the defense spending is the bulk of the bill.

It’s not.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
I guess they had to pass the bill and Donaldus Minimus had to sign it so we could figure out what was in it.

Sound familiar?

Maybe he figures that if he got this one right he might have a bead on who's going to be in the World Series, Berra's Law
notwithstanding . . .  :laugh:

There it is.

Don't worry.  DCP, RIV, Tom C, and the others in the  orange faction will spin and conjure this thing into a major Trump triumph in no time.

Is anyone keeping score of busted campaign promises yet?  He's got to be pushing the Mendoza line.

I dunno... I don't see any amount of trumpsplainin' sweeping this one under the rug. Most of the orange brigade is more concerned by financials than any other thing...

Give them a day or two. I've been pretty impressed at what they've come up with in the past after given a little time.

How do you defend the indefensible?

"He's better than Hillary" seems to be the most popular retort... The lesser of two evils and all...
