yes, he has no clue how this works, where the president is supposed to know something about the bill way before it passes, and not search for mulligans later because of faux A.D.D.:

And in this upside down world, believe it or not, Anne Coulter is, temporarily at least, speaking truth: Trump is a ‘shallow, lazy ignoramus’

One thing I don't understand

One thing I don't understand is that he often goes out of his way to sneak in some kind of supposed support for the DACA kids and blame the Dems for blocking a solution, he wants to be on both sides on that for some reason. His base probably is against doing anything, let them all be deported. I don't get what he's trying to do with that. Neither have I seen Schumer honestly explain where he thinks Trump really is at, what games Trump is playing, but that I could have just missed.

Yeah I heard it on TV. They pointed out that this threat is usually done before the a bill is passed and some Congresscritters already gone home as White House spokespeople have said it's a done deal. So if he did it that would shut down the government.

He just realized he forgot to object to it in a Tweet for the record so he was just getting that in at the last minute in order to gaslight his base?

@realDonaldTrump this guy really has no clue how this works does he?

DJT just tweeted that he may veto it because it doesn’t deal with DACA or the wall. Shocked!

SHHHHHH: Congress Snuck New Russia Sanctions Into Spending Bill

Congress wants to be sure that the United States keeps the pressure on Russia, with or without the president’s help.

By Andrew Desiderio @ DailyBeast.com, March 22

Buried in the massive $1.3 trillion spending bill that Congress is considering this week are strict new punishments against Russia, in what lawmakers and aides say is a message to President Donald Trump to reconsider his relaxed posture toward Moscow.

The legislation, which Trump was always expected to sign, includes restrictions that bar many federal agencies from engaging financially or otherwise with the Kremlin and its backers on a number of fronts. Lawmakers from both parties viewed those provisions and others as an opportunity to enshrine new punishments against Vladimir Putin’s regime at a time whenthe Trump administration has taken heat for its refusal to immediately and fully implement mandatory sanctions and other punishments.[.....]

Every bill takes compromise &

Every bill takes compromise & there was plenty here, but at the end of the day Dems feel very good; so many of our priorities for the middle class are included. From opioid funding to rural broadband, from student loans to child care, this bill puts workers & families first.

Starting soon: @NancyPelosi joins @SenSchumer to talk about turning the tide & highlight a number of priorities Dems have long fought for, including infrastructure, education, fighting the opioid crisis and more, that were included in the omnibus. https://t.co/LRuWKO2hkx
