    we never had an actual budget - all they do is one CR after another

    He's trying to pretend like Trump is a liberal. Yes, Trump is seemingly liberal on a couple of issues, but liberals don't support tax cuts for billionaires, gutting environmental regulations and consumer protection regulations, mass deportations, ending Roe v Wade, drill baby drill over green energy, calling global warming a hoax, and a host of other issues. Even on issues like labor unions, Trump isn't liberal. It's just lip service.

    so here is a direct quote from your post- maybe you can explain it to me

    The United States federal budgetfor fiscal year 2023 ran from October 1, 2022, to September 30, 2023. The government was initially funded through a series of three temporary continuing resolutions. The final funding package was passed as an omnibus spending bill, the Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2023.

    GOPers should be careful about throwing stones and glass houses. Seems a Republican member of Congress has been missing since July. Someone found her in a dementia care home.

    Sure, there were 3 CRs last year that “kicked the can down the road” and final budget was then passed to fund the government through 30 sept.

    you want to call it a budget go ahead but everything I read says the final bill was an omnibus bill that funded the guvment but that is not a budget- it was a spending bill.
