“I don’t think that there will be any curtailing of Donald Trump as president,” he said. "He controls the media, he controls the sentiment [and] he controls everybody. He’s the one who will resort to executive orders more so than [President] Obama ever used them." - Ron Paul
Total spending proposed is about what it was last year. Just shifts money around. And doesn't include tax cuts or his infrastructure spending.

the overall proposed spending is about on par with last year, at $4.1 trillion

"Government ... does not exist of necessity, but rather by virtue of a tragic, almost comical combination of klutzy, opportunistic terrorism against sitting ducks whom it pretends to shelter, plus our childish phobia of responsibility, praying to be exempted from the hard reality of life on life's terms." Wolf DeVoon
"...Make America Great Again. I'm interested in making American FREE again. Then the greatness will come automatically."Ron Paul
Let's review the options:
A) Argue about the meaning of words like "cut", "spending", "military", "entitlement", "increase", and "budget"
B) Tell us that their authoritarian idol really didn't mean what he said
C) Tell us that this is a brilliant move in a game of 3-D chess that only trumpettes are capable of understanding
D) Tell us that it's ok because obomba did it first
E) Tell us that it's ok because it would have been horrible if clinton had done the very same thing
F) Tell us that this is what Liberty and Freedom really mean
G) Call CPUd names
Just like every politician, not spending as much as was requested is the same as a 'cut'....
It doesn't matter which parties clown is at the helm the vernacular is identical....
Knowledge is Liberty!
Cut Taxes and Cut spending, when Reagan cut the taxes revenue increased the debt went up also though because spending wasn't cut. Cut the military spending not defense spending. March the troops back home, and stop intervening in the middle east, and funding terrorism.
@nikcers @r3volution 3.0 Stop feeding the Trolileo Trolilei. Just set it to ignore and say something interesting and insightful for real members to respond to instead of wasting your time. We gotta take the oxygen out of the dumpster fire that is the RPF troll brigade.

When the debt started to soar following the tax cuts he signed, Reagan then also signed what was at the time the biggest tax INCREASE in US history (under the guise of not raising tax rated but closing "loopholes" (deductions).
With Trump's plan, total spending is not being reduced either. Increases in military spending are off-setting cuts in other programs. The "$1.3 trillion in cuts" is a reduction from potential increases taken over a decade- no actual, numeric reductions from where we are right now.
I like reading the fake news and troll-stream media because it gives me a good idea of what other people think. I remember how long before I joined this forum I was a lurker and just read those comments and they infuriated me enough to join this forum to refute them. I thought about all of the potential people reading this forum. Plus sometimes old-timers members will correct me when I am wrong on things, unless i piss them off too bad -I am always open to new ideas.
Home from where when? Based on what?
No idea what you're talking about.
I think this is more selective (mis)interpretation of Trump's ravings. The man is a political Ouija board - His supporters always seem to find the things that they want to hear in amongst all of the nonsense that pours out of the man's mouth.
Someplace, sometime, based on his long history of keeping his word.
"the supply side tactic never works" = attempt to justify Trump's huge increase in military spendingNo idea what you're talking about.
"Trump is using the demand side strategy" = speculation that Trump will end wars to reduce the need for military spending
...after first increasing military spending, of course.
I hear you, but they'll be fed regardless (by each other, if necessary), so I figure it's best to refute them for the sake of the lurkers.
Or maybe I'm just a masochist.

I hear y'all, but no reasonable person reading this thread will be swayed by Trolileo Trolilei's claim that 4,094 or 5,708 is smaller 4,062. And you aren't going to change anyone who when being shown Trump's own proposal direct from the White House website several times by several members is simply pretending it isn't so and trying to gaslight people. If you stop giving trolls like them attention they will either move on, or have severely reduced power.
