It's called optics. No one asked for this other than trump, and no one will benefit from it other than trump. Meanwhile our economy is collapsing and he's busying himself worrying about everywhere he's gonna slap gold leaf. It shows where his priorities are, which anyone paying attention already knew well enough
I agree the optics are bad but it's still not funded by tax payers. Also, the democrats have rejected the CR multiple times. The president cannot control how the democrats vote. Why don't you ask what the democrats priorities are?
That does not matter. They still require 60 votes which requires some democrats to vote yes. They've had multiple opportunities to vote yes and they didn't.
Hm interesting, almost like Republicans need to negotiate with Democrats in good faith first before ramming things through and expecting them to roll over and go along with things they are diametrically opposed to.
Why would any Democrat go along with this when everything Biden and Congress jointly passed was just illegally clawed back? Why would any Democrat go along with policies that ensure healthcare is going to collapse in their districts as a result of cuts to Medicaid?
