Trump does not care what is in the bill.

All of these draconian things dumped in it are either his sycophants trying to please him (again, HE DOES NOT CARE) or the opportunist Republicans grinding their own bigoted hateful axes.

All they really need to do is pass a simple bill which basically does nothing except give Glutenous Maximus a win he can sign with plenty of pompous ass kissing and maybe another squeaky parade. Dust their hands off and head out for a long weekend on the people’s dollar.
