A bipartisan spending compromise reportedly reached by Republicans and Democrats proves one thing: One of the only times GOP lawmakers will defy Donald Trump is when their jobs are on the line—and their jobs are on the line.

If Trump vetoes it, he would force a shutdown — which would include a shuttering of some Pentagon operations. [...]

But negotiators said in a rare public meeting that the finalized package would largely strip out partisan language favored by House Republicans. That means lawmakers rejected attempts to defund Planned Parenthood or destabilize Obamacare, as well as a slew of other perennial conservative riders. I love this part so much it deserves repeating

I love this part so much it deserves repeating. And since the Democrats will be in charge of the money after the midterms, that means Republicans will never be able to defund Planned Parenthood, or kill Obamacare.

And guess who is going to get the blame for the 30% spike in premiums in October, thanks to the language in the Great Republican Tax Scam, passed last year?

This is where it all starts to come undone for dotard and the MAGAmites.

If just funding Planned Parenthood causes you that much anxiety, just wait until all f those state legislature seats start flipping from red to blue.

I know! There’s nothing more that you love than dead babies right? Good old lefty morals and all.
