    Ha! Ha! Ha!   With a $22 trillion national debt and $900 billion deficit the traditional budget process ....as you call it ..makes a mockery of it's self not the Trump administration..

    The President doesn’t "pass" a budget..... That’s Congress’ job. President's only put forward a proposal..

    That's why it's called a budget request ........

    Top house republican Cheney criticizes Trump's proposal to charge countries full costs plus extra for hosting US troops. US benefits by stationing its military in other countries.  But this proposal could jeopardize national security and relations with allies who already resent the presence of US troops.   State department and defense department are also alarmed.

    So you enjoyed yourself and flourished during the Bush years?  How about that Great Recession?

    Pelosi is so petty...VP Pence didn't use that office..the room was superfluous.. since the Vice President has long had an office in the Capital Building just outside the Senate chamber..

    That office in the House was awarded to VP Pence as a suck up gesture..by Paul Ryan ...

    So in other words, it was a waste of space.

    Do you believe Trump is petty?

    So in other words, it was a waste of space.

    Do you believe Trump is petty?

    Trump by definition is a petty person.  No one will argue otherwise and if they do they are simply idiots.  Trump supporters argue he gets results, they don't really try to say he's flawless.  Atleast, that's my experience with some of his sophisticated supporters.

    Asked if Canada's grounding was a factor, Trump said, "We're doing it almost as a simultaneous - we were coordinating with Canada. We were coordinating with Canada. We were giving them information, they were giving us information. We very much worked in conjunction with Canada."

    Saving time & words again, huh? Pure gibberish from a babbling fool.

    There's pictures of Trump signing bibles when he visited Alabama after the recent tornadoes. 

    Turns out he used the same pen to sign hush money checks when cheating on his wife.

    You Can't Make This Stuff Up!

    For the eighth time, Trump falsely claimed today that the European Union was "unwilling to negotiate" with Obama on trade, "but they are willing to talk to us." The EU took part in three years of negotiations with the Obama administration on a proposed trade agreement, TTIP.

    Lies, lies and more lies from the lying Liar in the WH.

    Meeting with Ireland's PM, Trump told his usual vivid story about standing at his golf course in Scotland the day before Brexit and surprising everyone by predicting Leave would win. He was at the golf course the day *after* the vote. He did not issue a prediction the day before.

    What he actually said the day before Brexit, to Maria Bartiromo of Fox Business, was that his "inclination" was to 'get out," but "I don't think anybody should listen to me...I haven't really focused on it very much."

    He's working on getting to 10,000 lies. He can't help himself. I blame his shrooms for allowing him to get away with his lies.

    Of the 22 Republicans up for re-election in 2020, all but one (fence sitter Susan Collins) voted with Trump on his phony emergency declaration.

    Of the 12 Pubs who voted against Trump, they either just got elected, are safe until 2022 or are retiring.  

    Absolutely gutless & willing to go down with the ship. Good riddance.

    Trump to Breitbart on how the left plays tough: "I have the support of the police, the support of the military, the support of the Bikers for Trump — I have the tough people, but they don’t play it tough — until they go to a certain point and then it would be very bad, very bad." What a dope!

    The police & military are law based institutions sworn to the Constitution & rule of law not to an individual. This rhetoric is exactly what incites unstable supporters to act out in violence.

    European union has voted to reject reopening US trade talks amid fears over bullying Trump policies.  Entering negotiations would be a mockery of environmental or social justice and fair free trade for all.  US is the world's second biggest polluter and reneges on its climate commitments at every opportunity.  By repeatedly abandoning international deals, Trump shows he is without honor and cannot be trusted.

    Just because the EU voted to reject reopening US trade talks doesn't mean the resolution is against opening talks with the United States..They will eventually have to come to the table with President Trump..and President Juncker knows it..he does not want President Trump to impose US auto tariffs..on top of the  steel and aluminum tariffs..

    Republicans join democrats in senate to reject Trump's sham emergency declaration in embarassing blow.  Legislation is obviously bad when both republicans and democrats agree. Despite political risks, some republicans bravely choose principle over politics.  Whereas Trump and others are violating their oath to US constitution.  

    Dangerous precedence to allow presidents to defy right of congress to control spending.  Separation of powers is supposed to be a check on overreach of executive power.  Dictatorship is where one man can override the will of many elected.  Also at least 16 states and others are challenging by lawsuits.

    Dangerous precedent  !!!

    The precedent was already set ...

    Obama had a pen and a phone .....President Trump has a veto pen and a twitter...

    You say :
    "Separation of powers is supposed to be a check on overreach of executive power"..   that is incorrect  ...maybe in your country, that's the way it goes ,,but over here in America ..the check of overreach goes both ways ..

    That's why the Framers of the Constitution gave the President the power to veto acts of Congress..to prevent the legislative branch from becoming too powerful,,, Congress can than override the Presidents veto by a super-majority vote...however although some Republican came together with the Democrats on a bipartisan basis to get it through the Senate ...there will not be enough Republicans to reach two/thirds vote needed to override the Presidents legislative rejection.

    Only in America.
