To DOD, maybe. The cuts to the other three wouldn’t pay for anything.

Medicare, Medicaid, Social Security and Defense. That’s where the money is spent. That’s where the cuts have to come. Trump has promised not to touch the first three and increase spending on the fourth.

So....there you go.

Nah, go look at the Trump proposed budget. If he were allowed to implement his vision you wouldn’t have to gut some of the more beloved programs. One of the major things also is the fact that under a Trump vision you wouldn’t be paying for 10 of millions of Illegals to get those social programs (and a vastly reduced amount of immigrants). Sure, if you grow exponentially forever in terms of population there is not going to be a sustainable path no matter what is done. You have to slow the rate of immigration, kill some of the programs and dramatically limit some of departments. Moreover, cutting the EPA has more impact on the economy than just a dollar amount, it will allow the economy to grow and more money would thus come into the government.
