I always told my Republican friends that I knew DJT wasn't a conservative but I was going to vote for him anyway because he WAS a patriot who loved this country. Turns out I was wrong. He really is a patriot but this 'non-conservative' has delivered the most conservative budget proposals in my lifetime!

We should have known by the enemies that assembled to fight Trump’s election, especially the talking heads in the old media and Homowood. His enemies list was an enormous clue and some of us failed to give it the weight it deserved.

Senator Lindsey Graham calls Trump’s plan “dead on arrival” — and he’s a Republican.

That's HIGHLY questionable!!

And now we will get to see which Republicans in the House and Senate are real conservatives and which Republicans are slaves to the special interest lobbies.

GREAT START
cut cut cut
drain the swamp

a government job is NOTHING MORE THAN “GLORIFIED WELFARE”
nothing productive just paper shuffling and roaming the halls looking for snacks....

look at DC and N Va and Maryland ..... infested with overpaid govt workers and beltway bandits and lobbyists..... TOTALLY USELESS PEOPLE

We already know that most are geldings, guislings, capons and castratos. That is clear.

I hope President Trump is prepared to veto a bloated budget and the government shut down the Democrats wish for.

In the past Republicans gave in to the blackmail - We have seen that the world does not end when there is a shutdown, if anything it shows a lot of what the government does is not essential.

They aren’t slaves. They are willing participants in feeding at the government trough. People don’t run for Congress to do public good. They run for Congress to enrich themselves, families and supporters. So the President’s budget proposal gores a lot of oxes. This is why he is hated by so many not only on the Left, but on the Right as well.

For our RINOs, like the rats, a budget ‘cut’ is a reduction of increase; if a program budget increase changed from +6% to +5%, they would say it’s getting ‘cut’ 17%. Old game.

I’ll assume Trump means actual decreases from last year’s budget amounts, true cuts.

We don’t have to wait. We are already seeing Republicans getting elected once again on the promise of repeal and replace. And what we’re seeing is Obamacare Lite. So, here we are again after the broken promises of 2012 and 2014. Why can’t we learn?

He's just the object of their hate, a convenient target to rail against, someone upon whom they can spew their venom. They really hate US. We the people who had the audacity to elect an outsider who we expect to change the power structure in our capital. we're the ones they really, really hate.

Trump’s Terrible Swift Sword

Cutting some of these programs will hurt the people that have bought and paid for our politicians. There isn’t one person that would think that these money hungry parasites would be looking out for the American people.

He’s like Shakespeare’s Henry V, who never acted like a king until he became one.

Agree. Most Critters look down at us, laugh at us, have zero respect for us. But, look at the bulk of us, at our behaviors and tastes and media picks and tolerations and general intellects. As people in other countries see us. Kinda can’t blame them, actually.

Politicians are fanboys/fangirls. They are always opposed to any real change, at least a loud vocal segment will oppose and try to destroy someone who challenges or tries to really get done what they promise.
