We haven't forgotten how it's supposed to work, but since obummer, it hasn't worked that way.
The next President, Cruz or Trump, will have very few problems with the next congress critters.
When the congress critters see the true will of the American people, they will jump into line because they want to keep their little fiefdom in DC.
Congress critters are the least principled people on the planet, lower than just a plain ambulance chasing lawyer, lower than a street drug dealer, lower than a big city street hooker......
You are way more optimistic about our congress critters than I am.
I have no, zero, zilch, faith they will easily go along to get along.
The lobbyist will still have their vampire teeth and claws on the throat of congressman..
I don't see them throwing their hands in the air and saying Go Trump or Go Cruz...
No matter who is POTUS, Congress will still be bought and paid for via the corporate lobbyist...
Frankly, Trump or Cruz can't do a thing about it in any meaningful way...
The PEOPLE need to vote the scum out of office...
He would cut the budget by cutting the size of the department
If he simply eliminated the department of Education, for example, which he could do as it is a cabinet level entity created by a President and not under Congress then I would think that the budget for the department would go away too.
If Trump were to partially do this by eliminating certain programs and the associated staff the budget would, or should automatically disappear the next year.
Am I wrong?
“Congress critters are the least principled people on the planet, lower than just a plain ambulance chasing lawyer, lower than a street drug dealer, lower than a big city street hooker......”
But, as I recall from surveys, still ranked slightly above child molesters.
