Trump budget would cut $4.4T in spending, boosting defense while slashing safety nets, foreign aid

Probably timed to go in effect right before election so as to f*ck people over but not receive a backlash for it in the polls

 

Honestly, Russiagate is bullshit, impeachment was bullshit, his mean tweets, arrogance, stupidity, jokes, bullying, don't really care about any of that in the long run.

But things like this, are true betrayals to his base, and all Americans who are not in the club. Doing the bidding of the wealthy and corporate elite is a betrayal, fighting against the poor is a betrayal, cutting environmental protections is a betrayal, folding to the warmongers in his cabinet and propping up the establishment agenda that is the military-industrial complex is a betrayal.

They don't care about the budget, they don't care about you, they are making money. Don't vote for this, it's quite literally voting against you and your family's quality of life.

 

Russia and Impeachment was not bullshit. All of it is quite serious and has an effect on our democracy. But these measures are indeed a betrayal to his base.

 

His base will love him for this. They don't care if he cuts their benefits and makes them suffer, so long as he blames minorities for their problems they will be happy with him.

 

Spot on. And this is where the Democrats fail. The promise much of this, but at the end of the day, they do the same ****. Sure, they throw out a few freebies like gay rights, but CLinton and Obama were no different.

 

Nonsense. Your party only sends out the tea party when it's a Dem president.

 

whow. no need to get defensive. I didn't name anyone specifically. Its only you and @Sweet Lou 4 2 who take everything so personally.

 

For whatever abuse and insults I have aimed at you, I apologize. I don't have any more desire to take shots at you.

Mojo man on the other hand.

 

Clinton balanced the annual budget that Bush later cashed out and triple downed with tax cuts, stimulus and 2 wars.

Whereas Obama started the Tea Party movement when people complained about his trillion dollar budget. What was the main difference? Less tax receipts from the Great Recession and hundreds of billion in aid to the poor and unemployed. Tea Bagger assholes complained about the later (i-i-i-f-f ya give money to everyone and their lazy brown relatives, den it is Socialism!) but are now silent with Trump's trillion dollar budget.

They are NOT the same.

 

Always amazes me that trump defenders will look for anything to blame others...

 

Basically, taking from those who need it most to pay for tax cuts that most benefited corporations and the 1%...

 

What... trump lies?

 

Everyone not a trump worshipper saw this coming. It’s he next logical step. Tax cuts for the wealthy. Debt ballon. Cut social programs. At the end of the day, American that elected trump and those that supported the trump tax cut traded off social safety net for trillions in tax cut for the wealthy plus a symbol of greatness - the Great Wall.

The sad and funny thing is the Dem will be blamed for this by great propaganda and people that cant let go of their own view that the Dem is as bad as the Rep.

 

Isn't this Republican SOP?

 

Yes, very traditional Rep. Starve the beast started in the 70s or 80s... it's been a strategy for decades.

 

Are poor people supposed to stay poor? Government assistance is supposed to be temporary. I don't see anything wrong with this

 

Since Reagan designed the playbook...

 

Cut taxes for the rich and pay for it by taking money from the poor. Republicans are the ones engaging in class warfare

 

Jesus you can't be this dense. You are literally cultivating a system that keeps poor people from advancing and then blaming them for NOT advancing.
