Trump Signs $855 Billion Spending Bill, Averts Gov't Shutdown

wonderingrover · 2018-09-28T21:35:37.835Z

Hey, anyone have a schedule of the Tea Party rallies happening in GA? I’m sure there are many with all this excessive spending occurring, but I can’t seem to find them on the internet for some reason…

Of course he did. The transformation is complete. He is a spineless coward of a man. I can’t believe I voted for him in the Primary.

Cruz is in a fight this Nov. He can’t afford a shutdown politically.

I can’t believe you just admitted that. Lol!

Sure. But he could’ve voted against it, like other self-professed conservatives did. But he is a coward. Gutless wonder.

I’ve been very open about that from the beginning. I’m never ashamed of my votes. Well, until after the fact sometimes.

Glad to see he voting his principles

Of course he did. Fiscal deficits were going to ruin us 5 years ago. Now they’re NBD.

It’s a pipe dream but I hope Beto wins. Cruz is the epitome of slimy politician.

Nothing really to worry about here folks. Remember, Trump is going to eliminate the debt in 8 years.

Cowardly tea partiers nowhere to be found

It’s a conservative ghost town in here…? Too busy making sure women know they better not speak up, I guess.

Yep, it’s the year of the man, so women need to shut the hell up.

This may be turn out to be the#YearoftheMan. Yes, women are assaulted every day, but men are also unjustly accused. But uncorroborated allegations alone cannot destroy a person’s life.

Cruz is a political opportunist. When he ran in 2012, the Tea Party was the big thing so he pandered to them and ran as a conservatives. Now that the GOP is the party of Trump and deficits don’t matter, Cruz is pandering to Trump. He has no principles.

Well me and @wonderingrover made an appearance. For what it is worth. To express our disgust for Cruz.

As for the spending. I’ve been lambasting the spending by Trump since the election. And by Congress for decades now. But I am clearly in the very small minority of people who actually cares about the debt, the deficit, and wanting to reign in spending. There were fellow posters who used to echo my concerns. But they have by and large proven themselves unprincipled hypocrites on this issue. Not all though. But the ranks are smaller and smaller all of the time.

So I can go to Yellowstone?

armycowboy · 2018-09-29T00:07:14.851Z

Sure, just make sure to go before Dec 7.

No, that’s when this bill is due to run out.

In another thread one of the die-hards was defending it, saying it was “short-term.”

Conservatives were already an endangered species 10 years ago. They went the way of the dodo in 2016.
