GOP members say they have a plan to avoid a government shut down due to lack of funding ..

It’s a plan so cunning that you could put a tail on it a call it a Weasel…

But….they are keeping it a secret because b they don’t want to upset their cult leader because they fear he will scupper the plan once again.

Yes, the secret plan is to let Joe Biden sign what's on the table, then everyone take a break for Christmas, then let Donny deal with it on January 21, 2025 after Joe's gone.

Oh, I never said MAGA was smart enough to deal with it after January 20th, I just said to let Donny deal with it!

@swirlie Donny is the reason for the current mess. So you are saying you want a bigger mess in January?

@justanothername
What current mess are you referring to?

justanothername · 51-55, M

@swirlie The current mess that I linked to. It’s probably tricky getting news under your rock.

@justanothername
Yes, I know the current mess your speaking about is the one you're linked to and I'm totally familiar with the details of it, probably more so that you are actually, but know in your heart that Trump had nothing to do with any of this stuff that's playing out now.

Contrary to what you believe, Trump did not actually cause any of this that's playing out in the news because Trump is not the President. He is the President-Elect which means Joe isn't finished his term yet.

Those Staffers in Congress who created the budget which Trump totally rejected which is at the heart of this discussion, didn't create the budget for Trump, they created it for Biden. Just because Trump caught wind of it's 1000 page content doesn't mean Trump dictates what happens to that budget!

Joe will sign that budget, not Trump and Joe will sign a Bill to increase the Debt Ceiling by $5Trillion effective Friday December 20, 2024, not Trump.

None of that has anything whatsoever to do with Trump or Musk.

Not quite... Donny never scuppered the deal because he doesn't have the Presidential power to do anything yet!

Donny and Musk never entered the White House or the Congress building to do any of this stuff, but Elon Musk was leaked the contents of that 1000 page budget document which he then shared with Trump at Mara Largo where both of those clowns are hold up right now.

All this stuff coming from Trump is being done over the phone to Washington, not by him showing up in person to throw his weight around in Washington because he doesn't have a security clearance to enter those government buildings yet, nor does Musk.

It's all smoke and mirrors for the sole purpose of creating chaos and drama which Trump loves!

@swirlie Smoke and mirrors is still influencing. Its influence by intimidation.

@justanothername
No, not at all intimidation. Only in Donny's mind is he intimidating anyone.

justanothername · 51-55, M

@swirlie sycophants are easily intimidated.
