Despite Mad King Donnie's repeated pushes to pass his “big, beautiful budget bill,” House Republicans abruptly postponed a vote late Wednesday when they were unable to convince conservative GOP holdouts who had raised grave misgivings over allowing trillions of dollars in tax breaks without deeper spending cuts.

Speaker Moses Johnson almost dared the Republican hardliners to defy Trump and risk his wrath.

BTW, Mad King Donnie also wants a $1 Trillion military budget -- need the extra money for those military parades, 'course.

S'okay, though, his tariffs are going to pay down the national debt.

Well, he said so.

Cha-ching -- money in the bank.
