CR has always been a key play in political establishments playbook. We all know it never reduce reckless spending. This CR will continue spending levels established under the Biden admin last year, which means the CR would automatically appropriate funds for USAID and even for Ukraine, but NO border security fund. Thomas Massie is principled fiscal conservative and support our border security. Of course he won't agree CR.
On the ther hand, if they pass CR, senate can start the reconciliation process which R is in control and border security funds can come from that process. So, I understand why Trump wants this CR to be passed. CR is key for his first year's agenda. If the argument between Trump and Massie is just about CR, I am fine with both of them. But now Trump wants to get rid of Massie through primary. No way! Fuck off, Trump.
