Statement from Trump and Vance on CR

A statement from President Donald J. Trump and Vice President-Elect JD Vance:
The most foolish and inept thing ever done by Congressional Republicans was allowing our country to hit the debt ceiling in 2025. It was a mistake and is now something that must be addressed.
Meanwhile, Congress is considering a spending bill that would give sweetheart provisions for government censors and for Liz Cheney. The bill would make it easier to hide the records of the corrupt January 6 committee—which accomplished nothing for the American people and hid security failures that happened that day. This bill would also give Congress a pay increase while many Americans are struggling this Christmas.
Increasing the debt ceiling is not great but we’d rather do it on Biden’s watch. If Democrats won’t cooperate on the debt ceiling now, what makes anyone think they would do it in June during our administration? Let’s have this debate now. And we should pass a streamlined spending bill that doesn’t give Chuck Schumer and the Democrats everything they want.
Republicans want to support our farmers, pay for disaster relief, and set our country up for success in 2025. The only way to do that is with a temporary funding bill WITHOUT DEMOCRAT GIVEAWAYS combined with an increase in the debt ceiling. Anything else is a betrayal of our country.
Republicans must GET SMART and TOUGH. If Democrats threaten to shut down the government unless we give them everything they want, then CALL THEIR BLUFF. It is Schumer and Biden who are holding up aid to our farmers and disaster relief.
THIS CHAOS WOULD NOT BE HAPPENING IF WE HAD A REAL PRESIDENT. WE WILL IN 32 DAYS!

Spineless statement.
Tell Johnson he's done for letting things get to this point, call for the Motion to Vacate, call him out for being a coward after throwing all of your weight and support behind him. Carry a big stick and use it. Stop being a pussy.

Which parts of the CR did Schumer out-guile Johnson?

Mr President,
There's nothing wrong with funding a portion of the money needed for farm relieve and for hurricane reparations but don't give all the money required in this CR along with all the BS the Dims are cramming into the CR. Mr President and don't allow the Rinos to screw the American people.

Nope. It's just your smugness and you've replaced Oweo as the downvote king

These bastards give themselves fat raises at least once a year.
Jub performance is what is supposed to merit wage increases. The primary job of Congress is, and always has been, to passed a balanced annual budget. Many members of Congress were just kids the last time an actual, balanced Congressional budget (that wasn't a CR/omnibus) was passed in the year of our Lord 1996.
I don't know any way to get them in line and force them to do their job. Well I mean, I do know a couple of ways, but nothing that is deemed "civilized" in modern times. Our forefathers would never have done this to their people and, if they had, their people would have refreshed the Tree of Liberty. Those roots, I fear, are only half fed- by the blood of patriots. The tyrants rule with utter absolution.

Look at this fricking shite that OUR REPUBLICAN SPEAKER was cool to pass?! He's gotta go.
It shouldn't take Elon fricking Musk having to weigh in to kill a bill that is the most anti-GOP legislation I've ever fricking seen.

I thought Popeye McCain said he hadn't received a raise since he entered Congress. I actually think they are a bit underpaid for having to live in a couple of different places.
