Trump risked a last-minute government shutdown – but the game was already over


President Trump may never seek out Florida State basketball coach Leonard Hamilton for political advice. But perhaps Mr. Trump could have benefited from Hamilton’s counsel when he threatened to veto a major spending bill last week. A recess would buy time to write a temporary funding measure and determine if President Trump was showboating. This was the quintessence of the “swamp” which President Trump campaigned against. So in the words of philosopher-king Leonard Hamilton, “the game was over” when Mr. Trump issued his veto threat.
