    Mitch claimed the tax cut on the rich would produce more revenue. Now that the first round of tax cuts are in and the deficit has ballooned with no end in sight, their response is...” let’s cut entitlements.”
    That wasn’t their claim before the tax cuts to get them passed. Since Reagan started tax cuts for the rich, with Bush now Trump, it’s been the same old story
    Get ready for another recession.

    Republican definition of trickle down - "I'm going to piss on your back and convince you it's raining ...".

    Once again “Deficits don’t matter”. Fiscal conservatives should be cringing right now!

    Yup
    yup, and all of a sudden, cuts to Medicare, SS and Medicaid are on the table.
    Btw, this is why we don’t have a long term infrastructure plan.

    Good to hear you’re self insured and can pay all your own medical bills.
