President Donald Trump threatened Friday to veto the $1.3 trillion spending bill passed by Congress, citing concerns that the legislation does not include a solution for recipients of the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals program or sufficient funding for a border wall.

"I am considering a VETO of the Omnibus Spending Bill based on the fact that the 800,000 plus DACA recipients have been totally abandoned by the Democrats (not even mentioned in Bill) and the BORDER WALL, which is desperately needed for our National Defense, is not fully funded," Trump tweeted.

Trump was fuming about the spending bill, an official said, particularly the news coverage he watched Friday morning that said his immigration priorities won't be fully funded.

Frankly--I hope he does veto this wasteful boondoggle.

I thought Mexico was paying for the wall? Why does the budget have to have funding for it?

It has something to do with the way all our insurance rates were supposed to go down $2500 a year per family with Obamacare. When we get those insurance refunds, we will also get a big fat check from Mexico. Clearly, you just dont understand complicated financial deals.

Chickened out, just like we all knew a gutless coward would do.
