Trump Increases Social Program Budgets – Top Democrats Say They Will “Kill Children”

Posted by Tina

Trumps budget actually increases spending on social programs. The increase is being called a cut because the budget “cuts” the amount programs will increase. Predictably, Democrats are making outrageous statements. They are demonizing Trump when they should be rejoicing. Consider:

The political Left struggled on Tuesday to find terminology sufficiently jarring to express their rage and disdain for President Trump’s just-released budget. That’s the price we pay for living in an age of political hyperbole.

Liberal journalists, activists and politicians denouced the president’s proposed cuts as “brutal!” “huge!” “shocking!” and “gutting the public sector!” House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi inventively suggested Trump was “assaulting the food we eat,” which, conjuring up a mental image of the Cookie Monster, is a new way of looking at the 45th president.

New York Mayor, Bill De Blasio actually said, “some children will die” if Trump’s budget passes. Please…how does he do this with a straight face? (He knows his following will believe the lie)

White House budget Director Mick Mulvaney defended the budget saying, “We look at spending differently. We are not going to measure compassion by the number of programs or people on them.”

Hurray! The budget was designed to give the dignity of work and self reliance back to the lower and middle classes.

Let’s see…what’s that old FDR song the Democrats always go back to? Oh yeah, a proposal that anticipates better days for Americans should have them singing, Happy Days Are Here Again!

Instead they demonize in a disingenuous power play.

Following the housing crash and recession measures were taken by our government to help people through the aftermath. Good! But that was eight years ago. There is no reason to make that level of assistance a new norm.

Instead, the budget proposal anticipates a stronger economy and an American public heading back to work. It anticipates a renewed spirit as people are given the opportunity to retrain and find a better, more fulfilling life as they are weened off the food stamp program and other federal assistance programs.

Saving to taxpayers from decreased demand for food stamps is estimated to be as high as $19 billion.

Democrats used to stand for the poor and middle classes rising. Now they seem to want them needy and dependent on Uncle Sam for their daily bread.

Back in 2014, Freedomworks pointed out the budget cut game Washington DC plays when wild claims were made about Obama pulling back increases in defense spending:

This is how it all works: the Congressional Budget Office (CBO) has a baseline that predicts what will happen over the next decade given current projections of taxation and spending. It shows that military spending will dramatically increase over the next ten years. President Obama’s $480 billion in military spending “cuts” are only from the bloated CBO baseline. This means that he is merely reducing projected military spending, as opposed to cutting current spending.

Congress Critters play to corporate interests and social justice voter blocks. Both represent money and votes. But this shameless rhetoric pits people against each other based on a lie. It entices them into a spit ball fighting match, and for what? Nothing that serves the citizens.

We have played with the budget according to the designs of a progressive liberal agenda for the last eight years. It hasn’t done much to uplift the people. It hasn’t given us needed good jobs and the prosperity to create a vibrant economy. It has resulted in sustained dependency at record highs in the population. We should have learned this lesson following the long Great Depression. 10 years of liberal policy after the crash of 29 left the country devastated. It’s time to try another approach. It’s time to “Make America Great Again.”

I’m fed up with congressional budget games and moronic phony outrage. I want a balanced budget, good jobs, more responsible management of our tax dollars, and a lot less dependency. Less dependency should be a top national goal!

    Saving to taxpayers?

    300 million Dollar Bomb for media Optics is just fine though right?

    Tina sorry you are so gullible.

    The budget is dead on arrival not to mention it has a major math mistake,

    They cut social services and give themselves big tax breaks.

    you really need to be deprogrammed.

    Wasted Spending? Wall? Military excess? Are there subsidies for rich oil companies?

    If that silly budget had a Chance we could dig in.

    it is so bad Republicans fear it.

    When you think food stamps do you see all the poor republicans in these southern red states who need it cause their jobs are gone?

    • Tina says:

      Dewey obviously did not read, or comprehend, what was written.

      The point of the budget is job creation, higher wages, and fewer people needing food stamps and other services. Is that difficult to understand?

      What in the world would be the horror behind people being able to support themselves…having the dignity that comes with supporting themselves and their families?

      In the last eight years liberal policy took more from working people, took more out of the economy, funneled more to big corporations, targeted and destroyed jobs in certain industries, decimated the middle class, and created the biggest dependency class since the Great Depression.

      So much for socialist caring!

      Dewey you wouldn’t know a budget, or how to spark a vibrant economy, if you tripped over it. But here’s your chance. STAY ON SUBJECT! What would YOU do to get the economy going and created better jobs? Tell us your plan and while you’re at it explain how it works.

      You and your ilk already had a shot. It stunk!

      Time to get the heck out of the way…that goes for the weenie republicans in Congress that are sitting on the gravy train instead of looking out for the people too.

      We can, and will, do better.

      • TruthToPower says:

        Tina giving these millionaires a “YUGE” Tax cut does not create Jobs. How many times do we have to try this.

        Trickle Down has failed us for decades. how it it the last Bush Tax Cuts which Obama made permanent did not create all these jobs you speak of.

        Where are the Jobs?

        All I remember is a “Yuge” Crash and 750,000 jobs leaving a month after decades of Trickle down and deregulating.

        Oh yes we now have profit prisons and the new slave labor.

  4. TruthToPower says:

    How about we separate taxes for the 2 sides, Republicans can pay for war and be excluded from social safety net, pay tolls ect ect and the rest of us can fix infrastructure, have universal healthcare and chip in for defensive military not offense for profit military….

  5. TruthToPower says:

    I want all social security, vets benefits and medicare removed. See how that does for the Tea Party base.

    They need to pull themselves up by their bootstraps

  6. Peggy says:

    Republicans want to help those in need. Democrats want to help the voters they need.

    We are fed up supporting able bodied adults with tattoos and piercings all over their bodies, wearing designer shoes and talking on a $400 iPhone while their kids are eating free lunches at school and junk food paid for with food stamps at home.

    Enough is enough! Stop making them comfortable in their poverty and they’ll strive to make their own lives better and to afford what they want, not what we give them.

    • TruthToPower says:

      You do not get to dictate whether a person has a tattoo. You are fed up?

      You want to dictate to others they have to live according to your beliefs?

      That is Liberty? Freedom? Justice?

      You can not sit in Chico and tell the rest of the country how to live.

      Also why do people working at walmart and other companies get food stamps? And what about all those Red State white trailer trash?

      Old people who’s pensions were robbed by the Hedgefund managers?

      We bailed the banks out but left the American citizen in debt, working 2 jobs for little pay, and that is not OK.

      The Banks are bigger than ever but hey let’s give the 10% who are wealthy a tax cut and get rid of everything that helps a family living off min wage….. that will solve everything… NOT!

      Let’s stop paying subsidies to corporations!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      #Corporate Welfare

      Let’s stop all this wasted Military Spending and these Offensive Profit wars.

      I am tired of a few loons collecting Social security , using medicare, telling the rest of the working population what they can do.

      You are clueless to the real world.

      • Post Scripts says:

        Dewey said,

        “You do not get to dictate whether a person has a tattoo. You are fed up? You want to dictate to others they have to live according to your beliefs? That is Liberty? Freedom? Justice? You can not sit in Chico and tell the rest of the country how to live.” Dewey don’t you realize you just recited exactly what the liberal democrats do every day? They are always dictating how I live according to their beliefs! If conservatives are telling the rest of the country anything, it’s how to live according to the principles we inherited from our founders. But, please do not confuse having a contrary opinion with imposing one’s will on another. In America we can all have opinions, it’s part of our free speech right. Liberals seem to gravitate to the far end of things, they often resort to violence to silence legitimate free speech. Trump’s supporters are a prime example.

        Also why do people working at walmart and other companies get food stamps? And what about all those Red State white trailer trash?
