If anyone needed more evidence of why the American people are suffering at the hands of their own government, look no further than the budget deal announced by Speaker Ryan. In order to avoid a government shutdown, a cowardly threat from an incompetent President, the elected Republicans in Congress threw in the towel and showed absolutely no budget discipline.
The American people will have to absorb higher deficits, greater debt, less economic liberty and more corporate welfare. Congress cannot seem to help itself in bending to every whim of special interests. How can they face their constituents when they continue to burden our children and grandchildren with debts they will never be able to repay? Our government is failing us, so we must do something about it. Who knows how bad things will be when the next administration comes in and has to pick up the pieces?
The only special interest not being served by our government is the American people. It is time we imposed budget discipline by holding the line on spending, getting rid of waste, fraud and abuse, and by taking on our debt. To do these things, we need a President who can lead the fight to hold Congress and the rest of government accountable. Together, we can Make America Great Again." atDonald J. Trump

Well, The Donald is certainly no Constitutional scholar nor adherent. That he would kick DC GOPee butt big-time is the allure.

“Notice the silence from Jeb! And the rest of the establishment.”
I noticed.
I think the caving of the establishment increases the likelihood of a conservative victory in the next election, and to me winning the election has a higher priority than the budget deal itself. The next Congress if it’s conservative can get us back on the right path.
Let’s not give a scrap of ammunition to Hillary.

Hopefully just early campaign season entertainment and free publicity.

Fear of shutting down the Government is just a lying ploy by the elites from both parties when they know that more than 80% of the government will remain open.
Shut it down and let the chips fall where they may!
The last time that the liar Obama shut it down, we gained control of the Senate.

Everyone should be dissing this budget deal including and especially the front runner and likely nominee of the GOP for President of the United States.

Anyone who supports subsidizing wind and ethanol really shouldn't run their mouths about bad budget deals.You think this is bad? Just wait until the federal government starts paying the hospital bills of people without insurance.
