I think snippy got some well deserved responses. It's not saving money. It's not helping the military and it's not even a mediocre result for that kind of money.

If Trump had only ended catch and release and built the wall then his presidency would have been a success. Unfortunately for all you Stalinists, Marxists, and Maoists out there, he also decided to go ahead and oversee record-low unemployment, trade deals that benefit all of us, record-high stock market records, an economy in which the bottom 50% are improving at a much higher rate than the top 1%, making strides in the opioid crisis, and energy independence.

Democrats bitching about cutting military spending is like a dog bitching at its owner for beating the cat.

Just because I triggered some of you freaks doesn't mean the responses amounted to more than temper tantrums.

Military spending isn't being cut.

Trump's jobs numbers are less than the last three years of Obama.

There are still billions in tariffs.

Trump's spent $1.7 trillion to get Obama's growth average.

Energy independence was well under way in the Obama years.

Some of the increase at the bottom is due to the increase in minimum wage in the Blue states.

All of these are verifiable if you care too look.

And take a gander at Trump's trade balance numbers. Tariffs work?

I was right.

And the debt is taking off like a rocket ship in low gravity. $250 billion in a couple of months?
