Ordinarily, to pass a budget bill for the next fiscal year requires a series of votes in both House & Senate on spending, taxes, the debt limit and countless amendments which creates delays, compromises etc. Trump suggested to Speaker Johnson to just combine it all into one bill and one vote. The one vote leaves much Democrat [[corrupt]] spending embalmed into the blueprint without debate & delays so that Trump can move unto other priorities and projects. Essentially, it kicks much conservative budget reform down the road past the midterms. The priority is winning the Midterms (which incumbent presidents historically lose) and not immediate budget reform. | Ordinarily, to pass a budget bill for the next fiscal year requires a series of votes in both House & Senate on spending, taxes, the debt limit and countless amendments which creates delays, compromises etc. Trump suggested to Speaker Johnson to just combine it all into one bill and one vote.
