Go back and read the article. There was no funding provided TO UPGRADE THE SOFTWARE to implement the changes, hence nothing was done.

That still falls under now 8 years of REPUBLICAN Congresses and close to 2 years of a republican president.

You can take everything back to Obama if it makes you happy (and I'm sure it does - you'll spend the next 20 years blaming everything back on him).

The CURRENT situation still comes down to a man who sits there tweeting and NOT DOING THE JOB.

That's here and now. What happened under Obama is about putting the milk back in the bottle. Trump has a puddle on the floor and has done nothing about it.

LOL you are just going to continue your lie to the last breath aren't ya? The article did NOT say the software upgrade was not funded, it said the legislation did not upgrade the VA's technical capabilities to account for those changes. The OP asserted that the legislation or "Trump" failed to fund the program.....a bald face lie. LOL you will also deflect from the fact that Obama and the Dems did NOTHING to combat the issues this legislation addresses for 2 FULL years of Democratic control you fool. LOL I love how to you liars always lay the blame on Reps and they have both failed in this area and other areas. Is lying hereditary for you or was it onset later in life? Trump signed into law this legislation and now Vets can got help outside the VA because of Trump which Obama and the Dems refuse to do.

To quote the article:
"There are many veterans, like Roundtree, across the country who are still waiting for VA to catch up with a backlog created after President Donald Trump signed the Forever GI Bill in 2017. The landmark piece of legislation greatly expanded benefits for veterans and their families, but it did not upgrade the VA's technical capabilities to account for those changes."

Let's get it straight. 2017 Legislation and its implementation is 100% REPUBLICAN.

The legislation "expanded benefits for veterans and their families".

The legislation "did not upgrade the VA's technical capabilities to account for those changes".

Since the bill was passed/signed in 2017 and to quote the article, "as of Nov. 8 [2018], more than 82,000 were still waiting for their housing payments with only weeks remaining in the school semester, according to the VA. Hundreds of thousands are believed to have been affected" how is this NOT a Republican failure?

Now that's 22 months in...

Allowing for the initial failings of the Obamacare website, which were corrected in an expedited effort (which since it was "Obama", I'm sure you will say wasn't fast enough), progress was reasonably fast considering the broad scope.

If the problem here was limited to early 2017, ok, s**t happens with software. I know, I designed/programmed full 50 state accounting and payroll systems for over 20 years.

But now 22 months in we have evidence of NOT DOING THE JOB coz it's still not done.

Now to quote you, since you profess too be an expert, "The article did NOT say the software upgrade was not funded, it said the legislation did not upgrade the VA's technical capabilities to account for those changes."

If the "legislation did not upgrade the VA's technical capabilities", that means that the LEGISLATION (Republican) did not provide for, SPECIFICALLY FUND, the upgrade.

That 'splain it for you yet, or is your English comprehension the same as your Math?

As for us liars, we can't hold a candle to your Donald's record. "I tell the t***h when I can." Hell, the man can't even tell the t***h about where his father was born. [Hint - it was NYC, not Germany.]

LOL again you get caught in yet another bald face lie, lying is in your DNA I see. "Without a single v**e in opposition, the U.S. House of Representatives passed a bill Monday night to expand the post-9/11 GI Bill and eliminate the 15-year time limit on the use of education benefits for new recruits."

"The v**e was 405-0 in a rare display of bipartisanship in Congress on behalf of veterans seeking higher education after active duty service.

Anyway, I will not argue with such a pathological liar as yourself, can't come to any agreement with a liar.

You're like the Donald... Get caught in the fallacy of what you say, call the other person a liar or F**E, change the subject and claim a victory when you've been caught walking in your own s**t.

Your response has NOTHING to do with what you responded to.

My response was specific to the original article. You got it wrong. PERIOD.

Your logic matches your English comprehension.

You might not want to argue with me as what you claim to be a "pathological liar". (Only because you keep losing.)

YOU JUST V**E FOR A PROVEN PATHOLOGICAL LIAR. Hey, you'll never change. I don't expect you to. Neither will your Lying Leader.

EyeSawYou

I rest my case, I just proved what a pathological liar you are.....I WIN!!! 😀

btw... Without examining the final legislation which doesn't exist yet, "for new recruits", taken at face value, DOES NOT ADDRESS VETERANS.

Bill sounds pretty limiting based on your quote. LEARN THE LANGUAGE.

This is the same type of legal language technicality that didn't fund the necessary software upgrade in 2017. AGAIN - LEARN THE LANGUAGE!

I hope it isn't just more smoke and mirrors. Really do hope so because it would be more pathetic treatment of those who have SERVED.
