Radio host Rush Limbaugh isn’t happy about a continuing resolution to keep the government open that does not include funding for President Trump’s promised border wall.

“This is textbook, it’s a textbook example of what the drive-by media calls compromise,” Limbaugh said Wednesday. “Trump gets nothing and the Democrats get everything, including control of the House.”

The Senate passed a bill to keep the government funded through Feb. 8. The House is expected to follow suit, and Trump is likely to sign the measure.

    Rush might want to pace himself as 2019 is beginning to look like a year that Rump will not get much, if anything. Rushbo will send himself into heart attack country with all the ranting, raving and shouting at the wall.

    Maybe he’ll get ten to twenty.

    I wouldn’t call that nothing.

  5. “Trump gets nothing and the Democrats get everything, including control of the House.”

    The drugs have done a lot of damage (evidently continue to do so, or I miss my guess), and the teeth are loose and no longer functional so it’s hard to understand just what he’s saying, I know, but does this rancid old wazzock at least understand that this deal is not what gives the Democrats control of the House?

    Perhaps in some drugged reverie he is, as a lifelong servant of the Koch Machine, merely dreaming of the day when control of the House is conferred by the president, as part of his executive power, rather than by the people of this country, through the vote.

    With this putrid old gaffer who even knows?
