It was conceptualized and pushed into legislation by Democrats.
PERIOD.
You're the one who's lying, M E M.
In order to get Democrats to cooperate in providing funds to rebuild the military, Trump had to accept a 1.6 trillion budget his first year, in which Dems extorted a lot of wet-dream liberal spending that neither Trump or anyone in the Republican party wanted, as the condition of rebuilding our military. Urgently necessary because the military was so disastrously unprepared. That is how badly Obama and the America-hating Democrats had destroyed our military during 8 years of Obama. Only 40% of our military planes were combat-ready when Trump took office.
republicans have majority control of both the house and senate. They used it to give the very wealthy a big tax cut that will increase the deficit. Back when Obama was President you know dang well they used the budget as a bargaining chip when they won the House. If you really honestly felt the sequester was that bad than shouldn't the GOP of have been willing to make a deal back than? They chose not to. Whenever republicans get in power though deficit spending is okay. You're trying to have it both ways but I remember all to well the GOP that took us to the brink with the budget.
