Opinion | Actually, Americans really like government spending
Trump claims he has a "mandate" to slash budgets, but polls show Americans want more spending on education, health care, Social Security, infrastructure and anti-poverty efforts.

As long as he's been in politics, Trump has been famous for spouting off bs baloney rot with absolutely no evidence to support his outlandish claims. He does it constantly, seemingly on an hourly basis.
Well, he's at it again with his far fetched claim that budget slashing is "popular." But, he offers nothing to back that up other than his belief that anything he says is proof enough of correctness. One thing he does not have is authority to slash or suspend funds that Congress has already appropriated; that's up to Congress, not a dictator wannabe. And, polling shows that most Americans support more spending for "education, health care and Social Security."
What Trump and Republicans are really after is what they deem as "welfare," programs that help the economically disadvantaged. Unfortunately, for Trump, et al, that includes blacks and Hispanics, citizens whom he despises.
Well, it's Saturday and time for Trump to hit the golf course. At least that will keep him from signing orders to inflict more pain on the American people!
Bigly!!!
