This is comical. The pundits wanted a plan, so Trump put together specialists and came up with a plan. And, surprise! The naysayers say it can't be done.

Of course it can. Cut back on Common Core and other worse-than-garbage federal programs, send home invaders and fill those jobs with US citizens, bring jobs back home and tax stuff from countries that manipulate money. Is there any chance the pundits factored all that in?

Tax plans are nothing but rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic without a spending cut plan. You can partially offset tax rate decreases with growth, but for the most part tax cuts will have to be paid for with tax increases to others, or taxes on our children and grandchildren through more reckless borrowing. The key to legitimate tax cuts is drastically reduced spending.

I don’t see how we are going to cut Federal spending by the 35% needed to pay for tnese tax cuts while implementing the universal healtcare paid for by the government (i.e., the taxpayers) that Trump has proposed.

The only reason they wanted a plan was so they could start to find some view of it that they could present as a disaster, S.O.P.

Trump was on O’Reilly last night and for the first time I heard this he said he would take a meat cleaver to the federal agency budgets. He made it clear he would cut the hell out of the agency budgets in a very substantial way.
