I thought the House had the "power of the purse." No matter what he thinks he can do (apparently everything as long as the GOP controls Congress), he cannot spend taxpay money without congressional approval.

Trump's obsession with windmills -- and all the lies he tells about them -- has its genesis in Scotland, with that country's refusal to remove the windmills that block the beautiful from his golf course. If he can't bully them to do his will in that country, he'll force us to do his bidding.
