and he is spending more on defense which means more money for people in other countries.

You guys can’t bring yourselves to admit this guy is a con man who lied to you.

Lmao.

Every bit as foolish as voters who think career politicians will look out for the common person. LMAO party hardliners are hilarious. They like watching professional wrestling fans argue over who the best wrestler is and debating if the ref was bought.
There isn't a career politician in office that cares a bit about the working person.

Medicare, in today's world, is like the Golden Ticket. I can't wait to give up my $800 a month premium and $6k deductible for an all expenses paid plan for half the cost that lets me see any doctor in the county on a whim. I may have argued in the past that we shouldn't make any cuts, but now things are MUCH different in this country and entitlements at age 65 have to become different too.

I'm not saying, and Trumps not saying, get rid of medicare. But if all other healthcare is changing so must it. And that's going to hurt me so I'm not just blowing smoke.

Dennis Kucinich did, but when Ohio redistricted, they put him and Marcy Kaptur in the same district, and she won that primary....

Watch the press briefing and all of your budget questions will be answered. It's only the first fifteen minutes.

Did I misunderstand it when Acting Dir Vought said they had saved a lot of money for the cost of pharmaceuticals which is why there is less money now for Medicare?

Says the party who believes white old millionaires like Biden and Bernie are looking out for the common man.

When the Democrats stop writing off white blue collar Americans as stupid and recognize the problems many of them face they might win a few more elections.
