I’m sort of expecting the budget thing to be the camel that breaks straws, or something like that.

When the Republicans in Congress find that Trump is going to make a mess of their carefully laid plans, I suspect that a lot of frustration is going to come to the surface.

And the complexities of the budgeting process is just beyond Trump. As such, he’ll ignore it and go golfing, so he’s going to be AWOL when the Senators are trying to negotiate among themselves.

The mess will end in a continuing budget resolution, which will become bogged down in amendments.

This then will bring about the “shut down the government” move… but those things always backfire.
