Wouldn't you want your state governor to fight to keep every penny they could get from central government?

Liberals believe in massive federal government, practice what you preach.

So now the left is in favor of states rights?

Does that apply to abortion too?

I notice neither of you actually answered the question but resorted to strawmanning into entirely unrelated points.

Some on here would call that deflection.

It's all they have.

No it’s why should the taxpayers pay for something that is never going to be built?

Aren't you for Trump's useless wall.

Your deflection has been noted as you didn’t answer the question.

Not a deflection as that question has already been answered: California could use that money elsewhere and it's the Governor's job to secure as much money for the state as he can. If he can't oh well, but he should try.

It wasn’t granted to go elsewhere

It is also not within executive authority to revoke legislative grants. For being strict Constitutionalists, conservatives do not seem to care about separation of powers.

I love this post, it's so lacking in self awareness it's hilarious.

Think it'd be cost prohibitive for the US to build railways to every country in Europe.

Jesus!

You don’t need a bachelor in English to know I was talking about the US lacks of train transportation to every states.

Maybe I read your post wrong, after all I am buzz at the moment.

Democrats are for policies that help people. If those policies reduce the size of government, great. If those policies expand the size of government, that is fine too. Only Republicans are preoccupied with the size of government.

They are the perfect example of post-policy policy-making: they do not care if the tax laws are fair, only if your entire return can fit on one side of a postcard. It is why they were unable to come up with a replacement for the PPACA; because there is not a way to solve a problem as big as health care without government intervention.

Trump, himself said his presidency should not be evaluated by how many bills he advances, but by how many he eliminates, without respect to whether the bills he eliminates actually help people, so long as there are now fewer laws. They start with a position, and try to work backwards to justify it.
