WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell said on Tuesday he does not think the Republican-led Senate can reach a budget agreement with the Democrat-dominated House of Representatives this year.

"I can't imagine that we could reach an agreement on a budget with this particular House of Representatives," he said, adding that a spending deal put in place last year would continue to guide the government this year.

WHY reach a agreement now when they always Threatened them ?
After November election, Trump will have more flexibility
Mitch should just pitch the TRUMP package and explain why he cuts social security, medicare, and all social programs.  The GOP, with the help of FOX NEWS surely can get their constituents to agree.  I mean the windfall tax break came to the middle class?  Didn't it?  PUMP IT UP!  Like the unprecedented global temperature rise they can explain to YOU why you should ignore One Million years of data.  Surely they can make the cuts palatable. Wait till they abolish Obamacare.
