Trump signs $1.3 trillion spending bill, despite earlier threat to veto
Trump signed the mammoth legislation reluctantly, saying in a press availability with other members of the administration that, in order to secure a necessary increase in military spending, he had to give money to Democratic projects that he derided as a "wasted sum of money."

"It's not right and it's very bad for our country," he said.

Tired of #winning yet?

Has nobody told Trump he doesn't HAVE to sign things that he thinks are very bad for the country? Maybe he just doesn't know what a veto is.

Our "National Security" was at stake. Without the largest military budget in history ($700B), we'd surely be overrun within the fortnight.

Smart play by Trump & Co, taking the punch bowl away is ever Red Team's downfall, if the GOP can be profligate spenders that fill the pig trough with alacrity, Blue Team literally has nothing left to run on.

Well, on the other hand... are now all the Goldman Sachs people gone from the White House?

Not happy that they are replaced by neocons, but still.

Damn, you liked your new job too.
Hope something else comes up soon.
For legal reasons, we are not threatening to destroy U.S. government property with our glorious medieval siege engine. But if we wanted to, we could. But we won’t. But we could.
