Trump's fascist values clear in slash-and-burn 2021 budget proposal

February 10, 2020

For years, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has repeated
a maxim that holds true: "Show me your budget,
show me your values." Impeached president Donald Trump,
and his chief enabler, Mick Mulvaney, have done just that
with their proposed budget for fiscal year 2021, a proposal
that maximizes profits for the military-industrial complex
by maximizing pain for the people. It's as clear an expression
of Trump's fascism as we've seen.

The budget is premised on a completely unrealistic forecast
of 3% economic growth that underpins an estimated $3.7 trillion
in revenue, compared to CBO and Federal Reserve projections
of 2.2% and 2%, respectively. Leading economists agree on
1.8% projected growth. The proposal’s unrealistic projections
provide the foundation for a bonkers budget—5% cuts to domestic
spending and 0.3% increases in defense spending, breaking the
two-year budget agreement the White House and Congress
reached last year. Rep. John Yarmuth, a Kentucky Democrat
who is chairman of the House Budget Committee, calls the
proposal "destructive and irrational," hallmarks of the Trump-
Mulvaney team. He condemned the proposed budget, saying
that it targets "programs that help Americans make ends meet—
all while extending his tax cuts for millionaires and wealthy
corporations. […]

"Congress will stand firm against this President's broken promises."

Trump grants increases to the military budget, only to rake it
back, to feed the concentration camps for children, the tents
that are substitutes for real courts of law, that have real judges,
the war on people seeking assylum on the Southern border- and
Trump's fraudulent fence (how much money will be given to Trump's
campaign donor, to re-do the section of fence that fell over in the wind ?)

Construction crews began blasting sites within Arizona’s
Organ Pipe Cactus National Monument as part of the
construction of President Trump’s border barrier, and the
affected areas include sites sacred to Native American groups,
according to a congressman from Arizona and advocates.

Rep. Raúl M. Grijalva (D-Ariz.), whose district includes
the reservation, said crews this week began blasting through
parts of Monument Hill, which includes a burial site for the
Tohono O’odham Nation.

I just got back from the border.
This week, Trump blew up a sacred Native American
hill on public land to build his racist wall.

Watch my new update and join the growing movement
to stop the wall.

— Raul M. Grijalva (@RepRaulGrijalva) February 9, 2020


(The removal crew pulled the gigantic ancient cactus out of the ground.
Quick and dirty operation- similar to an effort by an energy company
removing all trace of sacred Native American sites,- nothing will
remain, but tiny fragments. They removed part of a mountain-
blasting was needed for that. The tribe had thought that remains
and artifacts would be safe in a national park on tribal lands.)

“They’re plowing over ancient saguaro cactuses, 200-year-old
cactuses, chopped up like firewood — it’s appalling,” he added.
“They are also sacred to the O’odham; they see them as the embodiment
of their ancestors. So to see them turned into mulch — it’s deeply upsetting.”

Well after 8 years of it being TOTALLY non-issue that only dumb racist worry about....we agree.

You won the argument and then demonstrated it. Good job.

It's not his race, it's his party. It's only a problem when Democrats are president.

Trump is burning through America's credit card

Where is all the real money going ?

America will wake to a nightmare.

The debt when Obama took office was 12 Trillion, in 2008. When he left it was 20 Trillion, yes we defiantly need to try and slow that down. I would just like to know besides bailing out the Auto making morons, where did all the money go? No wall was build, no rebuilding of the Military, no good heath care. Where did 8 trillion over 8 years go? I know nobody can really answer this.

Trump's 29th Trip To Mar-a-Lago Brings Golf Tab To 334 Years Of Presidential Salary

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-golf-mar-a-lago-taxpayers_n_5e4712b9c5b64d860fcab86c

President Donald Trump returned to Mar-a-Lago on Friday evening
for the 29th golf-related trip of his presidency to his for-profit
Palm Beach, Florida, resort, raising his total taxpayer golf tab
to $133.8 million.

That figure translates to 334 years of the presidential salary
that Trump and his supporters frequently boast he is not taking.

During Barack Obama’s presidency, Trump frequently claimed
he was playing golf too much and at too great an expense to
taxpayers.

Total times Obama played golf during his eight year Presidency:

306

Eric Trump said the Secret Service stays free
at family properties. Doesn’t look like it.

February 16, 2020

The full extent of what the Trump Organization is charging
the government is not known because the Secret Service
has not listed them in public databases

It is ridiculous that neither the Secret Service nor the
Trump Organization will answer straightforward
questions about the arrangements. And when
answers are provided, they turn out to be false.

Secret Service has paid rates as high as $650 a night
for rooms at Trump’s properties

President Trump doesn't take a salary, a lot of his trips there are also working trip, meeting with people. AND! do you know that our other government workers only work like half the year. The Billions he's saving on trade will more then cover his trips and all the trips those other President took.

MAN! you Trump haters are pathetic.

No idea who these government workers are who "only work like half the year", but when I was a federal employee I worked year-round, and so did everyone else I knew there. And while Trump does donate his salary elsewhere, the expenses he's racked up on his golfing trips are...well, they're just what the above says. Even you didn't really deny that. And there's no evidence whatsoever that he's "saving billions on trade".

 

[bodysong]

Americans are losing billions because they have to pay for
King Presiderp's tariff wars.

All kinds of food treats are not making it into the USA
because of it. The good stuff. We are paying more for
everything, because there are no savings to pass along
to the customer.

Trickle down misery, and the billionaires are keeping
their pirate treasure "in the family."

(Some are dumping millions, because they can.)

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I guess your watching CNN, or MSNBC. The point is, it's really pathetic that people cry about the time ALL! our Presidents take. And a lot of time they are all still working. They don't get to just relax, and forget about our Country. It's very immature for people to bitch about Trump, or any other President that takes, in most cases a working vacation. They also don't punch a clock, and work just a 8hr. day. People bitched about Bush, Obama, Clinton, all of them when ever they took a week off. This augment is a joke. And it seems to me that our congressmen, and senator's take a week off every month. I did hear they get like 100 days a year. We all know there is BILLIONS of Dollars pissed away in our Government, RIGHT?

 

[BabyBoomer50s]

Maybe we should amend the Constitution to take the power of the purse away from the President and give it to Congress. Oh wait, Congress already has control of the purse strings. Never mind.

So much for your alleged "libertarian" views. I'm glad you're finally being honest with yourself in terms of how much you support your orange Nazi hero Trump. I'm also sure everyone is relieved to know how much you're finally willing to admit you hate minorities, Jews, and women.

Other presidents did NOT take anywhere near as much time off as Trump does. And heck, we'd probably be safer if Trump DID "just relax and forget about our country".

Pepe =/= Nazi.

Never claimed to be a libertarian, I fully understand and recognize the concept of positive liberty and social liberalism.

Pretty centrist, radically liberal.

Still a minority that married an ethnic/religious minority woman and made the most outrageously overprivileged babies with her.

Wondering where you're getting the whole hate for minorities thing....oh you can't argue your points on their merit, so you resort to that trash.

Mmmkay well good luck with that.
