Disconnect: Trump, GOP not on same page
I sure hope so. If so it means less damage they can do.
---------------------------------------------------------------
President Trump is on a different page than Republican leaders in Congress just days away from a possible government shutdown.
Trump and the White House are pressuring Congress to include funding to build the president’s signature wall on the U.S.-Mexico border as part of a bill to keep the government open past Friday.
GOP leaders, worried their party will be blamed for a shutdown and realizing they’ll need votes from Democrats to get a stopgap measure to Trump’s desk, have said funds for the wall should be dealt with in a supplemental spending bill or as part of next year’s appropriations process.
Speaker Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) last month even noted that construction on the wall couldn’t begin soon.
