Re: U.S President: Donald Trump
Trump does a Hillary and sides with the Democrats.
Quote:
President Donald Trump ignored the concerns of Republican congressional leaders in forcing through a deal proposed by Democrats that will fund the US government until December 15 and provide a short-term increase in the debt ceiling to avoid a default.
In a meeting at the White House, the Republican leadership — House speaker Paul Ryan, House majority leader Kevin McCarthy and Senate majority leader Mitch McConnell — urged Mr Trump not to agree to a short-term solution to raise the debt limit. But one person familiar with the discussions said Mr Trump sided with the Democrats as he insisted that he wanted to secure a deal to avoid an immediate crisis.
