With Trump, one just has to watch him speak and twitter - no smear machine needed - to know what he is all about.
Sean Hannity, of Fox News, is criticizing Trump quite a lot on his radio show. He even said it's "not a good for me today." There goes the "Democratic party smear machine" claim.

Yes.

Trump could have vetoed it just as Bush, Obama, etc could have with past pathetic bills. We must hold presidents accountable for signing spending bills into law.

I thought Trump would have a bigger backbone or he doesn't care.

Also, Congress members didn't get enough time to read this irresponsible deficit monstrosity.

There's nothing lucky about it. There's no evidence that Clinton committed a crime because if there were, Sessions would be all over it. That whole "lock her up" business was just Trump getting his base riled up.

And let's check the economy in a couple of years and see what's going on.

What’s he done anyway?
Can’t see a damn thing getting better-my 401(K) had better overall growth before he came in and this year it is already going down. Now we have deficit payments and higher interest rates coming on.
(Please not Supreme Court:he didn’t do that, it only happened because the Senate refused to move on Obama’s pick.)

Maybe but she's been running for President since 1992 (or longer) so there is a major relief factor that she's finally (hopefully) retired. It would help if she would disappear from the talk show circuit and stop blaming the world for her loss.

I don't even care anymore if Trump is impeached...
Me neither because then Pence would be president. But I would love to see Trump, Junior, and Jared do the perp walk.

No one knows what's in that bill.
Including those who voted for it and the POTUS who signed it.

Still looking for the roll call vote on it.

Yes they will, but the Trump base is about to find out what a warmonger really is, and Bolton/Pompeo/Trump will make Obama/Hillary look like peace loving hippies.

I am not angry at Trump, I am furious with the $#@%& Republicans. We have to start replacing them with Republicans who actually want to work for their constituents instead of their lobbyists and donors. There are a few good ones. Target the ones at the top like Ryan and McConnell. Bannon, for all of his faults was right about those two.

You Dems should do the same for Pelosi and Schumer. Otherwise nothing will change for anyone. This goes beyond party.
Trump had the power to veto it. He chose not to do so.

The GOP always needs a bogeyman...blacks, gays, muslims , mexicans or just plain Hillary.

Something to keep the base focused !
