The president-elect successfully pushed House Republicans to jettison some spending, but he failed to achieve his central goal of raising the debt limit.

It demonstrated that despite his decisive election victory and frequent promises of retribution, many members of his party are still willing to openly defy him.

Trump's decision to inject himself into the budget debate a month before his inauguration also showed that he remains more adept at blowing up deals than making them, and it foreshadowed that his second term will likely be marked by the same infighting, chaos and brinksmanship that characterized his first.

"Stay tuned. Buckle up. Strap in," said Rep. Steve Womack, R-Ark., a senior appropriator.
