Yes, if they don't reach a deal then he will vote no. That is a procedural thing that has to happen so he can bring up later on for another vote.

They are officially in recess but were told to stay in town and that they would be given 1 hr notice before a vote.

This shite is such a cluster. So half of them are asleep, drunk, or in their underwear watching HGTV reruns and they’ve now got 40 minutes?

No wonder trump went to bed. They can’t grt anything done within a reasonable time frame.

You are mostly right. However, this ridiculous theater has already cost the taxpayers millions as agencies scrambled around today to prepare for a shutdown. It is an incredibly wasteful process.

Trump on gov't shutdowns

"The problems start from the top and have to get solved from the top. The President is the leader, and he's got to get everyone in a room and he's got to lead. When they talk about the government shutdown they're going to be talking about the President of the United States. I really think the pressure is on the President."
