This is for every poor bubba driving that 18 year old pick-up truck stickered with MAGA slogans down the dusty backroads of America who were somehow duped into thinking Er Trump was their savior: "Donald Trump, whose populist message and promises to help American workers propelled him to the White House, is set to issue a budget proposal on Tuesday that instead takes aim at the social safety net on which many of his supporters rely. Rather than breaking with Washington precedent, Trump’s spending blueprint follows established conservative orthodoxy, cutting taxes on the wealthy, boosting defense spending and taking a hatchet to programs for the poor and disabled – potentially hurting many of the rural and low-income Americans that voted him into office. The budget proposal underscores the wide gulf between campaigning and governing, even for a president who promised to rewrite the presidential rule book.
Watched the briefing of reporters by Budget Director Mick Mulvaney...pretty impressive. Right or wrong...he was big on specifics and analysis unlike the innuendo and political speech of the budget critics... Much like you just spewed.
Can't ruin my day. I'm still basking in all that "hope and change" that we enjoyed for the past 8 years. My IRA has been growing. Illegal border crossings are down. Projects like the Keystone pipeline will be creating jobs. Carrier, Ford and a number of other companies are reinvesting in America. Saudi Arabia is buying millions of new weapons from our companies. consumer sentiment soaring. And all this in less than 5 months. I can see why the left is so depressed.
Lol, see crypto Currency at 200% increase in 30 days, no MAGA sticker, 401k breaking the bank and a $65k Mercedes engine driven diesel 1\2 ton truck wheeling around. If you insist on labeling folks Bubba who oppose your viewpoint you might as well go ahead and break out a swastika and make plans for the night of long knives to achieve your goal and hope your not offed in the process.... Really there are many more important things to be addressed.....
I thought I could keep my Dr....duh I thought my med. premiums would drop $2500...duh I thought that the Benghazi attack was caused by an online video....duh I thought there wasn't a scintilla of corruption in the Lerner IRS...duh I thought that Assad gave up all his chemical weapons....duh Well, I'm no bubba. No sir, I'm an embarrassingly sophisticated, highly educated pseudo intellectual who has a diploma that shows I've mastered child psychology, sociology, art history, or black, urban or gender studies hanging on the basement wall of my parents home where I live. I'm not only intellectually superior but I'm a hard worker, so much so that my boss at Wendy's told me he was compelled to give me a raise to $15 an hour. But I'll have to reduce my hours, I wouldn't want to lose my Medicaid, food stamps, Obamacare subsidy, rent subsidy, utility subsidy, free Obama phone and all those other government giveaways that make me a proud self-sufficient American Democratic voter.
