Accountable for what?

95% of Republicans voted YEA to enact a budget CR.

95% of Dems voted NO.

Why did Dems vote No? Because they carried an ultimatum with their vote. DACA amnesty or no budget passed.

Did the Republicans have an ultimatum? NO

So you’re either an idiot Lib or an idiot Cuck.

Either way, you’re a fricking idiot.

The republicans tried a motion to pass a clean CR on a simple majority. Schumer blocked it and dared them to pass it using unanimous consent, which would be like wiping your arse with the American flag.

There's no spin for this. Dems own it.

Why are you guys just so slavishly devoted to your ‘team’?

Good grief man don’t you even remember just a few years ago when these same GOP members of Congress were yelling about how the Democrats wouldn’t pass a budget??

It is like some of you just forget everything that happened before your team or guy got into power

A CR is not a budget.

And the Senate doesn’t have to be held hostage over this. The majority can make the rules.

OP knows the Dems won this, thus the dishonest OP. Jim Acosta already tried this talking point.

For once the right is playing by Prog filth rules and they hate it bc they know the country is recognizing them for what they really are. I think it's glorious they are making it clear they care more for illegals than producers.

I'm so glad I no longer vote with these people.

This. Dems have been screeching #resist for a fricking year and now they are trying to make everyone believe that they were suddenly willing to compromise on things like the wall (which they all called unhinged and racist).

They pass CR after CR for nearly a decade, then yesterday they said they couldn't stomach another CR because "generals are tired of CRs". They are so deep in the echo chamber, that up is down and light is dark.

And they wonder why the narrative isn't sticking.

None of this is relevant. You’re clearly being one-sided and obtuse about it.

Simple fact, Reps presented a clean budget CR.

95% of Reps voted Yea.

95% of Dems vote No.

WTF part of this is not registering with you?

Most of us on here are Trump people, which in itself shows that we are not “simply devoted to our team”! Our team wanted him taken out and some of them still do, but the Dems here are saying give us a shite ton of welfare for a bunch of illegals aliens or frick you! If they wanna throw a temper tantrum and make themselves look worse, we’re not gonna stop that by going nuclear in the Senate. Even the MSM is blaming Schumer and the Dems for this!

The GOP and Democrats suck equally but in different ways. Better?

I don’t get as mad at the Dems because I learned who they are years ago. The GOP on the other hand betrayed me again and again.

We aren't talking about the G.O.P. my view is that all of Washington is a shite hole and they are all ripping off this country and should and will all be drug into the street and shot through the temple. Is that a break

No shite. I said budget CR.

It’s a “Continuing Resolution” of an existing budget bill.

Stop being a retard. You’re embarrassing yourself.

You know how I know you are not being honest? Because you are saying that the GOP needs to do what the dems did with the nuclear option..... something that conservatives did not like and agree with.

That is not an annual budget.

Has the GOP even attempted to pass a traditional, yearly budget since Trump?

Don’t you want them to do a budget instead of a CR? Because they seem content to just do CR after CR and not pursue and actual budget.

bullshite. Conservatives were eveywhere during the Bush years pushing for it to get judges confirmed. Rush was begging for it almost daily. It was crafted by a GOP senator for goodness sakes.

How daft can you be?

Every single Dem voted against the Obamacare Reconciliation bill attempts, and the tax bill, and they’ve vowed to obstruct and “#resist”, and now 95% of them just voted against a simple clean budget CR, and your dumbass thinks the Reps should try a full new budget bill???

Just goddamn, man.

You’re an imbecile. It’s very clear you’re full of shite and a total Lefty hack. GFY

There will always be a convenient excuse for the GOP not to do something.

Let me ask you, when do you think the GOP controlled government should attempt pass an actual budget? The Democrats will always oppose them. Should I assume you just want CRs from here on? When will the time be right in your opinion?
