[QUOTE="newfie, post: 3956664, member: 58700"] I think you're chasing semantics here . Obama tried to go around congress many times when he could not legislate. his daca provision that is being fought over in the courts is another example. but but but Obama never reappropriated funding is not true. there is specific flexibility in the budget for presidents to do exactly that. Trumps action is a bit of an escalation over previous presidents but well in line with a trend where presidents frustrated by partisan politics find ways to go around the congress. all presidents have enjoyed a wide latitude in how they spend the money in the budget.
