How about every nickle?
$27 billion could be better spent elsewhere, like the VA for example.
Outrageous.
Another in-your-face example of how out of touch and how far removed from reality our ao-called leaders are and have been.
The US Cash Deficit for October 2016 came in at $45B for the month, bringing the year through 10 months to $526B.
Obama will leave Trump with a $20,000,000,000,000 dollar deficit and our government is peeing $27 billion of borrowed money away on this hoax every year.
The VA has enough money if the trash is thrown out
You could build a pretty nice wall for that sum. Then end all aid to Mexico till it’s paid off. Then still don’t aid Mexico, because screw Mexico.
$26.999 billion.

1 billion to skeptics. One billion to climate change enthusiasts
If you look at the NIH budget for research funding (a very interesting read...), there are global warming categories that are funded in the millions. Why are these part of the National Institute of Health budget?
https://report.nih.gov/categorical_spending.aspx
Climate Change $7
Climate-Related Exposures and Conditions $154
Global Warming Climate Change $6
I’m sure these are tucked into every single budget as ‘mandatory’. This would be a good place to start cutting....
RIGHT!
He should cut $50 billion. Have the slimy bastards who have been sucking at the government teat their entire careers pay back $23 billion that they flushed down the commode. $27 billion cut + $23 billion refund = $50 billion.
Let those whiny professors and their PhD grad students figure out how to get the money to pay it back.
Let believers pay for their Climate Change agenda.
$28 Billion works for me—
Make them pay back the amounts still in their bank accounts.
I’ll bet that NONE of their accounts are empty.
Spend that much money on building dams on the rivers to keep good fresh water from being lost to sea.
Green the West, restore the aquifers farmers have depleted, eliminate drought worries, and fight any sea level rise by reducing the rainfall that makes its way back out to sea. Maybe make the money back selling water rights to the captured water.
