29. Sure it did

It's easy to say "nope", but it looks like the answer is really, "yep". You're highlighting items that will make good PR, and dismissing the disastrous one. Nothing you posted there supported your argument.

House Republicans don't want to own the vote on the "massive, negative one" and Senate Democrats do not support it.

It will be rejected. They will pass a spending bill based on the President's request, tweaking it to within range of the budget request. If they pull a proposal, they'll either substitute the cuts or leave them out.

It's a simple concept: They'll debate, tweak and pass the something close to the President's budget.
