Evil preaches tolerance until it is dominant, then it tries to silence good.

That the Tea Party will again become fiscal restraint hawks? Sounds like more of a prediction

Increased spending, reduced taxes.

Interesting. I thought the GOP Congress did that.

Really by passing HIS signature piece of legislation that he ran on and brags about all the time?

Are you saying Trump's signature law increased trade deficits?...or increased spending & reduced tax

And don't forget McConnell as a general rule needs to get Trump's blessing on everything.

Obama advocated for ACA. Trump didn't advocate for higher trade deficits.

The old Bush playbook. It wasn't Bush's fault Congress didn't stop him from invading Iraq!

I don't get that. You act like Congress passed Trump's budget, and POTUS has the power of the purse.

He has the power of the veto. R’s also control both houses. Doesn’t pass without his okay.

True, but I don't think that supports your point.

Except the GOP does DO EXACTLY what he wants. They also controlled both houses.

That a spending bill didn’t get out of there in two years without his approval?
