And more often than no DO win.

And it will be the same with his wildly unlawful threats to unleash hell on "Democrat" programs and fire federal workers in mass as a mob tactic get Senate Democrats to cave.

Motions to enjoin are already being filed by federal workers and the city of NY is fighting back on the blatantly illegal withholding of funds.
