From The Hill:
Dems: Trump budget is recipe for shutdown
House Democratic leaders are warning Republicans that President Trump’s 2018 budget is a recipe for a government shutdown.
Trump has yet to unveil his finalized budget blueprint for next year, but an initial outline released in March — dubbed a “skinny budget” — proposed a $54 billion increase in defense spending, accompanied by offsetting cuts to domestic programs favored by the Democrats.
Time to call their bluff - we need to curb spending. At least with President Trump in office, the shutdown will not be done selectivly to cause public pain like Obama's 2013 shutdown.
Not like we haven't had shutdowns before...
