Trump's new budget is calling for budget cuts to the tune of 10%.
Trump really does not want to cut spending, Especially not now. He just finished pumping 1.5 trillion over ten years into the economy to pump it up. All on the credit card. That is 150 billion a year.
A true 10% budget cut would run 350 to 450 billion a year. That is 350-450 billion a year being sucked out of the economy. This would not only put the breaks on any growth but plunge us into a recession. Killing Trump's election hopes.
But Trump said he would cut spending. What is a fat assed con man to do?
Create a budget that cuts spending. Cuts so outrageous that he knows that not even the Republicans will pass them. And It will not be Trump's fault when spending is not cut.
Cut Special Olympics? Medicare?? Social Security?? No way these get passed with the 2020 elections coming up.
This is Don's plan to dupe his supporters and the sad part is that they will believe it.
A true 10% budget cut would run 350 to 450 billion a year. That is 350-450 billion a year being sucked out of the economy.
How does leaving $350-$450 billion in the hands of the people "suck it out of the economy"?
cutting the budget does not leave the money in anyone's hands, we are still paying the same in taxes
cutting the budget does not leave the money in anyone's hands,
Where does the government get money, if they spend more than their tax revenues?
