Me thinks the braying jenny isn’t IN the picture…

Hopefully that budget doesn’t get off the ground.

Show me the section of the Constitution that insists that we divide into political parties and spite each other in every way possible by redefining what general welfare means.

Well we listened to you republicans say the same thing for eight years, now it’s your turn.

We’ve learned to accept collateral damage, although having it occur in our own backyard does shade it a tad. Sad…… and completely unnecessary.

More will die than died in 9/11, and look at the resources expended to prevent that from happening including killing people and bombing stuff in the ME. It’s all in your priorities and values.

True.. you (we) will all die.. eventually. With the trump care though you will die a lot sooner and considerably poorer. Enjoy the results of your choice of president!

The Trump budget is the one that is Dead On Arrival, congress says so.

Whereas 8 years of Obama merely DOUBLED the deficit!

Well Mark van Winkle!…costsofwar.org

So, Lisa, you believe the proposed budget is bigly great, correct?

Yet another example of Republican analysis skills.

Just another stellar example of Lisa’s “considerable talent!”

So Lisa what are trying to say ? That the Democrats are overreacting because we all know it’s DOA in Congress ? We all know this is the most unrealistic budget proposal ever put forth for consideration by any president. It cuts everything to the bare minimum if not outright eliminated shredding what’s left of the social safety net to keep people from falling into poverty and becoming homeless. It’s certainly not a serious proposal since all it does is rob from the poor and give big tax breaks to the rich who don’t need and didn’t ask for it

I don’t understand the value of “Not even off the ground”. A toddler behind the steering wheel of a car may be “Not even off the driveway”, but that’s not really necessary to make a prediction of the outcome.

What does this ridiculous cartoon even mean? Republicans control the Senate. Republicans control the House. Republicans are saying the budget is ‘dead on arrival’.

To be bluntly cynical, there are far too many people today who won’t pay any attention at all unless you scream, “We’re all gonna die!,”… not even if their lives really are in danger.

As for the supposedly DOA “President’s/House’s” budget, it ain’t dead yet, and we need to keep attention focused on it and its mutant offspring if we don’t want to wind up dying sooner than necessary.

Honestly, Lisa, who wants this idiot’s anything to lift off the ground?
