If Trump just takes money appropriated by Congress for a specific purpose & seizes it to use it for an entirely different purpose, what is the point of having a Congress or appropriating money for anything? I’m sure the Senate Appropriations Chair Susan Collins must be concerned.

An American and a Russian are walking down a street. The American tells the Russian: "You know, I have to admit, your country's propaganda is really effective!" The Russian replies: "Thank you, but not as much as American propaganda". "What propaganda?" the American asks.
