Ok,asshat,how about tell us what he COULD have done,facing a Dim congress.
Do NOT say "He could have held his breath until his face turned blue".
@sneakypete Foremost get his own ducks in a row... Republicans should have been four-square against spending to begin with. As leader of the Republicans it is his job to get them in line and on the same page.
He was incapable of doing that (right wrong or indifferent, it didn't happen).
Secondly, he could have turned his proven belligerence at Congress, using his Bully Pulpit to lever things his direction. He didn't do that either.
Thirdly, he could have taken his plea to the American People and told them flat out that we are on a train to hell if we don't turn the dollar around and stop spending. He didn't do that either.
Fourthly, he could have refused to sign the bills and force the Democrats to override the veto... Putting the blame directly on the Democrats instead of the bipartisanship he performed. But he didn't do that either.
and then Fifthly, he could have held his breath till he turned blue. But again, nope...
Instead, he meekly folded like a two dollar lawn chair and gave them everything they wanted, signing his name, and owning every bit of it himself.
THAT's what he did.
