It happens because the Deep State single-party in charge is interested primarily in funding the growth of itself, while most members can claim something to brag about to the voters every 2 years. Reelection is the lifeblood of politics. I guess they eventually tired of funding through "continuing resolutions".

Before there's too much Hysterical Rhetoric regarding the signing off of the Spending Bill, one should take note of Donald Trump's most recent public statement on signing off the Omnibus Spending Bill. He stated quite clearly that he was very critical of much of its contents and WOULD NOT SIGN another such bill again. In fact he initially considered Vetoing the whole thing .... He signed it, primarily, because of what he got for the Military spend and what that meant for National Security and what he was able to get, at this stage, for The Wall. He was also critical of much of what the DemoCraps obtained and said that much of that spend was a real waste of money .... Therefore I imagine that sensible Voters will understand and appreciate the CONSTRAINTS under which the President of the United States of America has to operate at times. That is why it is so important that the House and Senate get populated by far more Trump-orientated politicians so that greater benefits for the American peoples can emanate from them.
