On Fox and Friends this morning he was asked how he would pay for the $54 billion increase in defense spending, and he responded ...
“The money is going to come from a revved-up economy,” Mr. Trump said on Fox and Friends when asked where he would find the budget cuts. “I mean, you look at the kind of numbers we’re doing, we were probably GDP of a little more than 1%. And if I can get that up to three, maybe more, we have a whole different ballgame.”
This directly contradicts what his OMB director claimed only yesterday, boosting GDP by 2 percentage points overnight is the stuff of fairy tales and unicorns, and he's prevented from doing what he proposed by the Budget Control Act, anyway.
That answer is pure, unadulterated, bullshit, yet his supporters will either gaze at their TVs, slack-jawed and drooling, or cheer and eagerly eat up the bullshit with a spoon.
