More like a Trump moment. I'm pretty sure that Ocasio understands that funds are appropriated to various departments for specific purposes, it's not like one big piggy bank that Trump can shake some money out of when the mood strikes him

Nope, she probably doesn't. And neither does Trump.

THIS is why we have separation of powers. So idiots like Trump can't just raid one agency to fund something Congress has expressly denied funding.

Sanders is the perfect idiot for this idiotic administration.

Are you never happy unless you're b*tching about Trump?

Trump is getting Mexico to pay for the wall like trump promised?!?

If Trump backs down on this again he is risking some serious blowback.
