'Poor little Tumpy.... he can't help it' is a poor excuse for a president.

And the president SIGNS THEM.


 This has been explained to him several several times

Plus presidents do submit budgets.

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

He bobs,he weaves,he does ANYTHING he CAN do to not admit DeSanctimonious is a loser and a poser!

Well, he has been able to do something Trump is unable to do and that is win elections.

This is about Trump’s record. The debt, deficits, economic issues, and inflation that we are experiencing today have its roots under his term. Deny, lash out, attack  do whatever you have to do to make you feel better, but those are the facts. And he’s promising more.

Why should we vote for more of that? Just so he can sit and throw verbal bombs at people you don’t like?

Gee,and here *I* was thinking it was Congress that created and voted for budgets!

Well, you thought wrong

Presidents submit budgets. And presidents can sign  or veto them.

I suppose you "think" that if it had been DeSanctimonious  dealing  with  a Dim and RINO Congress,that he would have jumped up in the air,clicked his heels 3 times,and they would have all agreed to give him what he wanted?



Nobody ever made that argument

Friendly reminder... for context:

Ten states will hold their primaries and caucuses before Texas does... and Texas is a Super Tuesday state, meaning it will share its primary with 14 other states.

In other words, the dynamics of the race will likely change quite a bit by the time that primary comes around... and this is all another entry in the Great Trump Psyop.

Veto is a word Trump is completely unacquainted with, which is why I have no faith in him doing the right thing a second time around, rather than take a stand and veto Pelosi and the democrats obscene spending he just smiled and rubber stamped it **nononono*

Trump won't do that because as we have been told, he doesn't want to get attacked by the left.  That's why he pushed through all that COVID stuff, right?  Because if he didn't, the Democrats would have been really mad at him.

But, haven’t you heard, he’s still going to take on the left because he cares how he’s written in the history books :rolling:

   Instead of bringing up Trump this year @ Thanksgiving Dinner I brought up kneegrows. I felt ostracized as usual.
   My plan for not being invited to their get togethers is moving along as planned. 
No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

In that case, what good is Trump?  You are basically admitting that Trump doesn't have what it takes to stand up to Congressional Democrats.

There is nothing remotely dictatorial about vetoing legislation.  Its a power expressly granted to the President by the Constitution and has been used hundreds of times.

The problem is that Trump was worried about getting re-elected and didn't want to risk alienating swing voters.

So then...WTH is your point?

Veto the legislation and get thrown out of office on your ass??

Why?   So that you can chisel the words "At least he stood on his principles..." on his gravesite?   *****rollingeyes*****

The Left advanced MORE during Tumpy's administration. They got MORE money. They got MORE power.

No doubt about it, Trump not utilizing his full majority when he had it left the door open and disgruntled voters opted to give the DEMS control of the House.  They absolutely got more money and grabbed more power.

It is amazing that the GOP has a slight majority in the House right now, but whether or not they can maintain it or increase it is yet to be seen -- if they can seize the Senate it will be a sweet victory.

If socialist Argentina can elect someone running on slashing government, there’s no reason America can’t. The people of Argentina got tired of the poverty, inflation, and the size of their government and the accompanied loss of freedoms

BTW, is anyone in the GOP running on cutting the cost and size of government, Milei style?

Why?

Why?? Are you serious?  You veto left-wing to stop it from becoming law.  That's what a conservative President is supposed to do when facing a Democrat Congress.  Then again, Trump is a populist and not a conservative, so expecting him to veto leftist bills is probably expecting too much.  His own image is all that matters to him.

Oh, and what did not stopping the Democrats' legislation get him?  He lost the election anyway.

Classic.  You examine what Trump should do by how it impacts what is written on his gravestone, not by its impact on the country.  The perfect distillation of Trumpism.

You'd expect the left to advance when there is a Democrat in the White House.  What is much worse is when the Republican in the White House refuses to stop them because he's more worried about his own political future and legacy than he is about doing the right thing.

@Maj. Bill Martin

HorseHillary!

First of all,he HAS NO POLITICAL FUTURE. One more 4 year term is ALL he is going to get.

Secondly,the "legacy" he dreams of is going into the history  books as "The President that saved America from being overran with  illegal aliens,and the President that saved America from socialism/communism."

AND.....,he only has 4 years to do it,and he knows this. Anybody that thinks he is going to be worried about stepping on someone's toes needs to consider that. NOTHING is more important to him than his ego and how he gets written about in the history  books.

AND......,to top it off,he COULDN'T do worse than any of his opponents would do,even if  he tried.
