Gosh, it's a miracle given Trump still working off Obama's budget...

A budget that was passed by a majority Republican House and Senate, unlike Obama's unrealistic bullshit budgets that he could not get past a Democrat controlled House and Senate, sometimes not getting a single Democrat vote. Three years plus without a budget, with his own party voting against him.
Remember that part?

And why are you trying to change the subject? The fact remains that the budget Trump is operating under isn't his budget and he's had no input into it's creation yet you are sitting here trying to give him credit for saving, which according to your title, amounts to a trillions dollars. The impossibility of that aside what I would like to know is why you are trying to give Trump credit where no credit is due? Do you think that is the only way he can accomplish something--by taking credit for the efforts of other? That's quite a king you have there Loki, only six month's in and he has the most brilliant conservative on this board (you) lying for him solely to make him look good.

Funny thing about a budget; people never think of one in terms of spending less than the budgeted amount. That is what Trump has done. He cannot add to the budget without Congressional approval, but he can spend less. A budget means you are not supposed to spend more....it doesn't mean you cannot spend less than the amount budgeted. The savings come from cutting bureaucracies and costly, useless regulations.
Thank you for the compliment.

So what bureaucracies has he cut and what regulations did he cut that caused federal spending to go down?

I'm tired of repeating myself, and tired of doing other people's research for them. Here is one link; there are others.

And that didn't tell me a single thing. He can flap his arms and blow air out his ass but that doesn't tell us how he going to cut government and save the trillion dollars that the article claims. You say he cut government. Fine, so where did he cut it and how much was actually saved. An EO is nothing but a piece of paper. Also, I would really like to know how reducing regulations cuts government spending--you said it does. Unless I'm mistaken the majority of regulations apply to the private sector. So what regulations did he eliminate and how much did they save government--and more importantly, how??

I know the claims Loki, I just don't see where they could possibly save the amount claimed by the article--I mean even his hiring freeze only lasted until April so that wouldn't be it so where is it???

congrats to the Donald, who actually knows how to run something other than a political action committee and he will destroy the subversive commies that follow obama.

Along with proper allocations to Depts where warranted, such as cutting the EPA grants and cutting UN fees, and bringing some negotiations to the table over that horrific one sided agreement in NAFTA and cutting expenses in immigration to illegals that should not be carried by us, as well as curtailing the influx coming in and seeing report after report they are leaving on their own to go home, Mexicans in particular..

Once he starts withholding funding for Sanctuary status cities a tremendous advantage will take place as well.. Monies will actually go for the betterment of states and not unreasonable expenses in harboring these illegals...

It's amazing to see the achievements in spite of opposition and yes, I say Thank You President Trump for remaining true to your campaign pledges...

Jesus Linda, you are living in LaLa land. You know, when I first started chatting with you what struck me was how level headed you were even if you were a bit naive. Now, with exactly no evidence, you are making claims crediting Trump with fiscal achievements, even if he knew what he was doing would take well over a year to implement and see any results. And NAFTA effects the private sector--it has no financial impact on our fiscal condition--unless you want to claim that it brought in more or less revenue to the treasury. Did it?

You people are sitting here and making it up as you go simply to act as cheerleaders for a president who has yet to have any kind of achievement. That's sad Linda, that's incredibly sad...

I think you may be purposely limiting your exposure to all that is happening.
