Passed a budget in the normal course, that is. Continuing resolutions and last minute funding of the government is not "a budget." Funny to see people who supported more spending year after year get upset at Trump doing so.
As for me, I have been upset at Dems & GOP spending more year after year, and I will be upset at Trump if he continues to do that. I've been nothing but consistent on spending.

        Dumb. US was downgraded under 2025 budget submitted by Biden admin. Sofar Trump hasn't spent 1 penny - Eli - 9:08pm 5/18/25
        It happened under Trump’s watch and yes, past administrations… - Domer From Hell - 10:50pm 5/18/25
        THis is the last major agency to downgrade. Others did it for other administrations. - NedoftheHill - 12:22pm 5/21/25
        
        And it’s deserved. Even without pandemic spending, he increased the deficit more than anyone else. - Frank L - 4:08pm 5/18/25
        Trump’s chaos has resulted in a loss of confidence in US. Hence, the downgrade. [NT] [LINK] - conorlarkin - 5:29am 5/19/25
        
        Only president from either party trying to stop spending; you oppose his efforts; criticize him... - NedoftheHill - 4:34pm 5/18/25
        Trying to stop spending? BS. He won’t touch the things that need to be done. Reform - Frank L - 5:06pm 5/18/25
        Then this is a non-issue if he is taking the Dem position. [NT] - NedoftheHill - 7:34pm 5/18/25

        So, you think he wants to spend as much as Dems? - NedoftheHill - 7:41pm 5/18/25
        He spends more. - Frank L - 8:37pm 5/18/25
        How do you think he does that? He doesn't have the power to do it. - NedoftheHill - 9:39pm 5/18/25
        He approves, agrees to and signs the budget dummy. - Frank L - 11:22am 5/19/25
