VERY IMPORTANT! - trump successfully diverted attention all week with his false rhetoric, tweets and insults, defaming veterans, Puerto Ricans, widows of dead soldiers, a Black Congresswoman, and who knows how much more, while his new, "old friend," Mitch McConnell set his Mongol Army on American Citizens.
trump is the beginning of the final chapter of the Republican effort to show, Democracy doesn't work. The Country doesn't work. To bring down the Whole Country and Stephen Bannon STATED VERBALLY and in PRINT he wanted to do. Reduce the Federal Government to a small "caretaker" government, where the citizens MUST rely strictly on their own for survival, no matter the circumstances. NO ENTITLEMENTS of any source (MEDICARE and SOCIAL SECURITY ARE NOT ENTITLEMENTS. 
BEWARE OF trump's TRICKS. Now you can see how they work. 
> trump did his job. While he diverted the country with his insults and inane comments, lies and B.S., and the media assisted him by promoting his childish, playground rhetoric, without much fanfare, the Republican Senate SILENTLY passes a 10-year Budget which…
CUT MEDICARE BY $473 BILLION
When Democrats tried to REINSTATE THOSE CUTS…
> REPUBLICANS VOTED NO! - During the long 2016 campaign, we were told repeatedly, by trump and other Republicans, that MEDICARE and SOCIAL SECURITY would be safe and untouched. 
When Democrats tried to reinstate Republic deductions of State and Local taxes from Federal reporting…
> REPUBLICANS VOTED NO, ALLOWING FOR DOUBLE TAXATION - The tax plan’s rate cuts are more tilted to the top than the state and local taxes deductions. That’s part of the reason why, when key elements of the plan would be fully in effect(2027), 80 percent of the plan’s net tax cuts would go to the TOP 1 percent of Americans, the Tax Policy Center estimates.
When Democrats proposed restoring the $1 Trillion CUTs from MEDICAID…
> REPUBLICANS VOTED NO! - During the long 2016 campaign, we were told repeatedly, by trump and other Republicans, that MEDICAID would be safe. 
The Republican Tax Plan includes a waiver regarding the CBO. The Congressional Budget Office scores all bills to determine the financial effect on revenues, GOOD AND BAD. The results of this waiver must be submitted 28 hours PRIOR to debate on that issue. HOWEVER, Republicans often “waive” that requirement in order to begin debate BEFORE MOST MEMBERS OF THE SENATE HAVE EVEN SEEN THE BILL OIR THE FINANCIAL EVALUATIONS.
When Democrats tried to rescind that waiver…
> REPUBLICANS VOTED NO! - How can the Senate debate a bill which they have NOT SEEN or that has not been SCORED? It’s typical. They tried with the ACA as well. A HANDFUL not Republicans BULLY their way through.

Hypocrites or not? You decide..

. SHELDON METZ · SUNDAY, MAY 1, 2016 To my ultra-religious friends who quote bible passages and support Trump, how about hearing this when he speaks on TV? Actual quotes fro a rally: DROPPING THE F - BOMB: "The Donald," as he is known, enters the arena, more as a billboard for self inflicted controversy. The supreme aggrandizer, somehow, stays in the game. Willing to use opening phrases such as, "Listen You Mother F*ckers …," which is cool, if your, you know, watching a film by Martin Scorsese, a play by David Mamet or listening to a rap song by Ice Cube, but as a presidential candidate, this is not cool at all. Once he gets a taste for the reaction, the audiences nervous laughter, the cussing continues. On Foreign Policy: "We build a school, we build a road, they blow up the school, we build another school, we build another road they blow them up, we build again, in the meantime we can't get a f*cking school in Brooklyn." On...

Trump’s great satirical performance

Republicans, lie after lie, still support the Agent Orange-in-Chief. They know he lies, admit it in fact, yet still “believe in him.” How can that be? He recently held a Cabinet meeting, similar to one held a year ago, where he gave his sycophant Cabinet Secretaries the opportunity to praise glory on the exalted Russian lackey, himself - one of his greatest satirical performances. Trump: “Every day, Border Patrol encounters roughly 2,000 illegal immigrants … trying to enter our country. …”  Fact:  The daily number of what he calls “illegals” is actually about 1,000.  Trump (regarding Foreign Aid): “… the Democrats… want $12 billion additional for foreign aid… It’s $54.4 billion… but in foreign aid, they want 12 billion over the $54 billion…”  Fact: The total fiscal 2018 budget for the State Department ($12 billion), and foreign operations including foreign aid, $42 billion. Republicans control the Senate. Trump: “(Afghanistan) built the library in Afghan...
