The overblown, expensive F35 program, all those new ships (some of which can't enter service because their new, high tech systems don't work, and sabre rattling at Venezuela, China, Russia, Yemen and so on are always safe from the budget ax. Every time they talk of cutting spending it is grandma's social security they put on the block. Meanwhile welfare for illegals, disability SSI for illegals and so on continue. Cut the waste out of social security and cut half the military budget. Neither will be missed. |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 77942740 United States 08/23/2019 05:17 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Several senators told the New York Times in a report published this week they spoke to the president about reducing the costs of the federal health care and retirement programs — a move that would likely stir controversy in a presidential election season. Republicans have said cutting both programs is crucial to reducing the nation’s deficit, which has ballooned under Mr Trump thanks, in part, to the GOP tax bill passed in 2017. Senator John Barrasso, a Republican from Wyoming, described the process of cutting the costs of social security and medicare to the New York Times as “best done during divided government”. “We’ve brought it up with President Trump,” he added, “who has talked about out it being a second-term project.” Senator John Thune, a Republican from South Dakota, also told the newspaper that reducing the costs of the federal programs would require “presidential leadership” and “courage by the Congress to make some hard votes”. “We can’t keep kicking the can down the road,” he said, adding: “I hope in a second term, [Mr Trump] is interested. With his leadership, I think we could start dealing with that crisis. And it is a crisis.” Mr Trump won in 2016 by claiming, among other things, that he would be able to entirely wipe away the US national debt of more than $19tn (£15.5tn) in an eight-year period. image He also repeatedly vowed not to make extensive cuts to the popular programs, even as other Republicans were saying reducing their costs would be crucial to lowering the debt. “I’m not going to cut Social Security like every other Republican and I’m not going to cut Medicare or Medicaid,” Mr Trump reportedly said at the time. Senator David Perdue, a Republican from Georgia, told the paper “it probably takes a second-term president” to begin working on the issue, adding: “It’s politically difficult to say you’re going to save Social Security, because most people think, well that means cutting benefits.” Democrats have also expressed concern over the mounting debt, including Senator Jon Tester, a Democrat from Montana who told the New York Times: “It’s just not financially sustainable at all.” <snip> [link to www.yahoo.com (secure)] Left of Mao Hate Trump communist (yahoo news) writes the smear. Right of David Duke Hate Trump Stormfags recycle left wing commie propaganda as right wing propaganda. Complete political coordination between Hate Trump political anarchists. Who would figure? I know this is wild, but lately I've been thinking maybe all these people claiming to be disgruntled former Trump supporters really are ROLCON. |

Ivanka has got his nuts in quite the bind. You're a moron. The democrats have been so busy giving taxpayer money to illegals, along with free healthcare and education while they literally voted against helping family members of fallen American soldiers money to earn a degree. Skid Row in CA is growing larger, and 30% of all living there are women and children. Many are drug addicts, thanks to open borders and a steady flow of drugs from the south. California taxes are so high that mass amounts of people are leaving that state, as well as NY. If a democrat wins in 2020, the border will be wide open. The outstanding economy that President Trump created will be destroyed, which will leave less taxpayers dollars that the dems will be sure to use to support their future voters, (illegals.) Don't hold your breath for: 1. Reparations. 2. Cancelled college debt. 3 Anything the dems promise at all. Everything they say they'll do is completely impossible for them to do as long as thier number 1 concern is to flood our nation with illegals. If the border is wide open people will flood here all at once, by the millions. They'll even take what you have worked hard for, and give it to them. That is the globalist New World Order system. Stupid democrat voters will destroy our nation in every way imaginable. I wish they'd just move to their fantasy socialistic nation instead of dragging our down. Most coming to the USA are fleeing socialistic nations...because it ALWAYS fails. |
