(New York, NY) December 17, 2015

If anyone needed more evidence of why the American people are suffering at the hands of their own government, look no further than the budget deal announced by Speaker Ryan. In order to avoid a government shutdown, a cowardly threat from an incompetent President, the elected Republicans in Congress threw in the towel and showed absolutely no budget discipline.

The American people will have to absorb higher deficits, greater debt, less economic liberty and more corporate welfare. Congress cannot seem to help itself in bending to every whim of special interests. How can they face their constituents when they continue to burden our children and grandchildren with debts they will never be able to repay? Our government is failing us, so we must do something about it. Who knows how bad things will be when the next administration comes in and has to pick up the pieces?

The only special interest not being served by our government is the American people. It is time we imposed budget discipline by holding the line on spending, getting rid of waste, fraud and abuse, and by taking on our debt. To do these things, we need a President who can lead the fight to hold Congress and the rest of government accountable. Together, we can Make America Great Again." atDonald J. Trump

When Trump isn’t acting like a third-grader, he can be powerful. This happens to be one of those times.

Trump has a problem with subsidies in our current fiscal environment, he has made that clear, but when a voter in Newton asked him about the production tax credit that subsidizes wind power, he said he is “OK” with it. Most likely a bit of pandering because her husband works for the industry...

Rush isn’t the only one who criticized this deal. Hannity was so mad he couldn’t listen to a clip for fear he’d go off. He railed for the first hour on this treachery. Levin’s doing same.

Statements like this from Donald are great, unlike some of his childish name calling.

Trump calls 'em like he sees 'em!

I guess those FReepers who were bitching earlier today that Trump hadn’t said anything about this atrocity of a budget will shut up now.

Or not.

While the DC Elites are trying to ram this through, Trump noticed
what they are up to.
Good for Trump.

Obastard has driven us carelessly...

It wasn't careless; it was intentional.

‘’Is that ol windbag still on the air ?’’

Yes... thank GOD. I pray for his safety (and Trump’s) every day. Rush has been a touchstone for conservatives for decades and I can’t even imagine how bad things would be without him.
