I am probably the only person here who saw Trump's. If there is anyone else out there, please help me sleep tonight, and tell me if he's proposing a deficit or surplus.

Are you are all Pavlov's Dogs?
Unfortunately, Trump has ensured that in this election cycle, we aren't going to be making decisions based on things as mundane and practical as the Federal budget. Instead, he has forced us to use this election cycle as a referendum on the future of the American Democratic Republic. What good is debating a budget, when the essential underpinnings of the Constitution are under continuous attack from the leader of the country?

Woof! I was dead-on...again! Not one person has seen Biden's 2021 federal budget plan. It was a loaded question, because he has none.

Trump was forced to submit his...it's the law...

https://www.whitehouse.gov/wp-conten...vW650MPmGk2hQo

How can anyone vote for Biden, not knowing what he plans to do with all our cash? Is he going to continue the deficit spending, like Trump, or is he going to reverse course? You have no fricken idea.

You have all been conditioned not to care, and you don't even realize it. B.F. Skinner was right!

Also, when you deflect, you surrender the original point. I'm holding your White flags.

Interest on the debt now very likely exceeds defense spending. By 2024, you will snap out of the trance you are in.

You know the answer to your question, but you don't like it. The answer is that many Americans are going to vote for Biden because they trust him to be a responsible leader. They trust our system and legislature to do their jobs and to keep the lights burning and the nation secure.

They no longer trust Trump to do that. We don't know from one day to the next what he will do, and where he will take us. Budget? Do you really think in your wildest dreams that he cares one way or the other? If it benefits him to spend Federal money he will do it. If it benefits him to not spend it, he will do it. It's all about Donald, never about us.

The 2020 election will be a referendum on values more than anything. It will be a happy day when we can get back to arguing about budgets, and not about whether our fundamental rights as Americans are under siege.

Wait, didn't he promise that in 2019? And 2018? And 2017? And 2016?

Remember that time when Trump forced McConnell to have a vote on repealing the ACA and it failed? And Trump used up one of this Budget Reconciliation (50 votes, no filibuster allowed) on that instead of some other campaign promise like Building the Wall?

Yeah, good times. That was a double win.

I remember when the biggest scandal early on in Obama's first term, and it was all over Fox News then, was that Obama put mustard on his hamburger.

I slept very well for many years knowing that was the biggest problem plaguing conservatives. No one came to take their guns. No one was trying to deny life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. It was Condiment-Gate.

I'm thinking in February 2021, the biggest scandal on Fox News will be the reflective color on Biden's aviators.

Alas, his repeated promise that his health care plan will be released 'in two weeks' is fast running out of time, if, as he claims, his plan will be released before the election.

Deflection = Defeat

I see you waving your White flag. As I predicted, you have not seen Biden's 2021 Budget, and don't care how much he plans on spending on the Green New Deal, or how much he plans on raising taxes on employers; which will chase them overseas.

He changed his mind...you have to vote for Trump, to see what's in his plan! Do unto others...

Geez, you don't care about the fedral budget, AND you don't even know America's form of Government.

We do not have a "Democratic Republic", its a Constitutional Republic.

Class dismissed.
