In a major victory for Trump and House GOP leaders, however, several House Republicans who professed to never have voted for a CR supported the current bill.
Among them was Rep. Eric Burlison, R-Mo., who fully credited Trump with his decision to "barely" support the bill.
"The ‘barely’ is Donald Trump," Burlison said. "He is the difference maker. I would never support this language, but I do trust Donald Trump."
Rep. Greg Steube, R-Fla., was in a similar boat. He told reporters, "I'll be the first guy to tell you I don't like CRs. I've never voted for one."

The White House has requested additional spending in areas that were not present in the last government funding extension, known as "anomalies."
Among the anomalies are some added funding for the Women, Infants and Children (WIC) federal benefits program, and nearly $1 billion to aid with Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) deportations.
There is also some added funding for defense in a bid to ease national security hawks' concerns, and about $13 billion in cuts to non-defense spending.
