Donald Trump can make a splash with new programs at NASA — only if he gets a budget authorization from a majority of 435 House members and 100 Senate members.

The same goes for his infrastructure program, just like Obama's proposed infrastructure program, and Trump's replacement for ObamaCare, and every other delight Trump wants.

So far Congress has not been more inclined to approve these expenditures for Trump than they were for Obama. Many Republicans in the House and Mitch McConnell in the Senate have specifically said they would be seen as hypocrites if they suddenly agreed to spending for Trump they had declined under Obama.

Many have told me Trump with solve the problem of Congress refusing to allocate money for his programs by using Twitter to Tweet out nasty-grams about various Republican leaders in Congress. People call this "going over their heads." I'll be amazed if that works!

It's a war of wills and different agendas between the Tea Party and the Trump supporters.

Charles Koch, who founded and funded the Tea Party, is on the warpath against Trump's spending plans and against Trump's reluctance to cutting Medicare, Social Security, the VA and military pensions.

Trump has taken away all of the gains Koch hoped his Tea Party elected representatives would achieve when a Republican took the White House. It's why he shifted virtually all of his contributions in this last political race to state races and refused to back Trump or the Republicans nationally.
