It reminds me of the statement by those 50 senior officials from the admins of Reagan, Bush-41 & Bush-43. These sentences stood out,  
"He is unable or unwilling to separate truth from falsehood. He does not
encourage conflicting views. He lacks self-control and acts impetuously."

If the election had gone the other direction we would now be debating on how much to double down on the failed ACA, how much to RAISE taxes for all the giveaways promised by HRS, and with the absence of any consumer confidence in yet another "business unfriendly" environment, the Dow would most likely be in the 17,000 range.

and leaves the US citizen holding the bag on the next terrorist incident in the US. Why did he rule? In part because it will ruin the Muslim travels to visit Hawaii.....lol....

So easy to just blabber "well it'd be worse if the 'other' guy was in office"  

presidential erection.

"Free" college, doubling down on Obama Care, more regulations on business, not less. The list goes on and on.

I would hope the R Congress would have blocked most of her ideas.  I actually agreed with her on the ultra short term capital gains tax idea.  But the one thing I really feared is what the Supreme Court would look like after 4 years years, and what power they would extend to the POTUS.

At least her 33 years of tax returns are out in the public.     We can't say the same for the Con man and now the "conspirator in chief".   All he has accomplished so far are bring up fake controversies, conspiracy theories while his family is minting money from the Chinese Government.   Half of his cabinet members are under investigation for ties to the Kremlin and KGB.

And so it begins. The implosion of Red State America that voted for Trump. Blue states like MA, RI, CT, NY, NJ, DE and MD all get to keep their Amtrak routes. The Red State heartland with Senators that have to beg every year to keep their cross-country Amtrak routes? Cut. The Red states with the highest opioid addiction rates like WV and KY? Sorry. Addiction programs cut. Red states with lower household incomes? Sorry. Your assistance programs and economic development programs cut. Great Lakes States that turned Red like MI, IN, PA, OH and WI? Sorry, but the federal government no longer wants to help clean up the pollution in the Lakes. You are on your own. Good luck funding those efforts. Trump visited lots of economically suffering Red states during the campaign and told you that you were being left behind and disenfranchised. He promised that he would look after you. What is he doing instead? Cutting off your federal funding and leaving your already stretched state governments to look after you. If this budget were to ever pass, Red State America would start to look like the third world. Head Start programs will suffer. After school programs will disappear. Agricultural support will be minimal. If you folks in KY, WV, MS, AL, LA, etc. think that you have state funding to fill these gaps, think again. Trump has now surrendered in the war against poverty. But don't worry. The Northeast and the West Coast will make out just fine in all of this. I'd like to think that none of us saw this coming. But that would be a lie. People have been saying this all along and the only retort is "Sore loser snowflake!!" Well, take some time to read this budget and ask yourself if President Trump is really fulfilling his promise to take care of those left behind or if he is passing that off to states that are ill-equipped for the task.

Well, so much for not being for a stacked government!

I can remember how you told us that you didn't want a government stacked with one party. That if Congress was stacked with one party you would vote for a presidential candidate of the opposite party. Why, for government gridlock, right? How much of what Hillary might have pushed do you really think would have passed in a Republican Congress?

There are more terrorist attacks committed by second amendment lunatics with mass shootings than by any Muslim born in 6 countries.    9/11 happened under a Republican President, the worst terrorist attack on our soil since Pearl Harbor, one of the sites a short distance from the White House!   LMAO.

will not roll over and play dead on these cuts.

If you remember however the consensus was that the Dems would seize control of at least the Senate.

He's used to running his own show and NOT answering to anyone.  Now, he's gotta deal w/P.Ryan and Mitch M and the Dems.

Then neither of those two incompetent morons (DJT/HRC) matter.  I will stipulate that DJT is much more entertaining than HRC is/was.  It's forced me to actually have to watch a reality show that I otherwise wouldn't have given the time of day.  I really do enjoy the spin faction.  Hope they finally catch that spy who tapped Trump Tower.

Better off with Trump. I would like to see that fantastic tax cut for the middle class he is talking about.  Also, I would like to see the screeners at the airports replaced by super models, who gives a fuck if they can't screen for shit, they can squeeze my balls any day.  My healthcare and retirement have been taken care of so I don't give a fuck about that other shit.  If he really wants to make an impact then de-criminalize drugs and tax the shit out of it.  End welfare and give the best looking dreamer women citizenship.  That's it for now. I am serious about most of this shit.

and remember about a year and a half ago I was resigned to the fact that an HRC Presidency looked inevitable and that with "split power" not only was I ok with it, but that I might even vote for it.  

Do you run your household like that? Are your bills WAY higher than your monthly income?

I'd forgotten about the prospects regarding the Senate, since I didn't hold out much hope for that. I thought it was tenuous at best. So, I will no longer hound you on this point, though I suspect you still would have voted for Trump if you'd known the Republicans would take the House and Senate.

Oh, and he wants a few billion more to build his useless wall.  And don't tell me our defense spending under Obama has been scant.  The US defense budget is as large as the next seven biggest defense budgets combined.

So what is the solution?   Massive tax cuts and dry up the US treasury?    That is what Dubiya did and ended up with unpaid tax cuts, unpaid Iraq war financed by increasing national debt.
   
Trumpanazee and Paul Lying Ryan are taking the same route with massive tax cuts.    At the end of the day US Treasury will be getting less money and writing more checks than it can afford.

But lets get real. The money for the wall is not going to make or break the country. It is basically a one time fixed cost.  

And toss your parents onto an ice flow.

But, you're forgetting the other side of the equation!  HighWay has it right!   Massive tax cuts = less revenue = bigger deficit

Cut everything basically that doesn't kill someone. Ok a bit draconian for sure, but we are headed for bankruptcy. You don't think what is happening in Spain and Italy and Greece can happen here?

Too bad you couldn't help Obama.  With your wisdom he might not have doubled the national debt.

1. This is only a small portion of the budget. Which he didn't decrease or increase.  They reallocated the spending to their priorities.  
2. Bush? Obama added 9 trillion to the debt. More then all other presidents combined.. Where was you concern while he was racking that up?
3. You don't know that the government will take less in based on his tax cuts. That's rank speculation. Did they put out the tax bill?  
4. Shocked face, that when a R gets in office all of the sudden D's discover that the debt matters.  

Egomania and Paranoia personified..

In this case it's taxing carried interest that lets hedge fund managers have their income taxed at capital gains rates instead of as ordinary income.
I'm glad you and I agree on defense spending.

"It'll be fun watching the Repubs fight amongst themselves and NOT be able to blame the Dems!" That, and it will be fun to see the still try to blame the Democrats. Stock up on your supply of popcorn.

and you can lump in ultra short (6 month) capital gains with that as well.  That is not investing, it is trading.

You must have taken the RedPill...

He said it months ago.  Maybe even a year ago.  Duh.

The reason our defense budget has been capped was an agreement between the Republicans and Democrats in Congress to control the budget deficit.  The Republicans own the size of the defense budget as much as Obama.
As for Russia, their military is no match for ours.  They are 4th largest in spending after China and Saudi Arabia. Our defense budget in 2015 was $596 billion.  Russia's was $66 billion.  So I assume you were kidding.  At least I hope so.
As the late Sen. Moynihan once said, "You are entitled to your own opinion, but not your own facts."
