CBO Slams Trump Budget

The CBO on Trump’s budget on the impact on the deficit weighs in

The projections on growth and deficit reduction are pretty grim

The CBO casts doubt that the economy will grow by more than two percent

Some truth there as when it comes to tax reform and tax cuts the Blue gridlock will not be broken or even bent

Already the Blues are digging the trenches to tax reductions block

If no tax cuts look for a massive reduction in the market for stocks

For the Blues out of ideas that have any chance to actually work

With the Russian collusion delusion their rhetoric has gone beserk

The Blue view of Schumer and Pelosi is that Trump must be stopped at any cost

Still after eight months cannot believe that their failed candidate lost

Government programs are like cockroaches even with nukes impossible to reduce or destroy

Especially in Swamp speak a reduction in the rate of increase is a cut as the favored howls of protest to employ

For the Reds after railing against Obama most of the time

When it comes to fiscal restraint they are without spine

Unwilling to tackle the growth of entitlements that an aging population will entail

Unwilling to in any way meaningful deficits and the rise of our national debt curtail

Government programs are like rockets sent into the heavens to the solar system  explore

Up and away the chains of fiscal they completely can ignore

It matters not whether our politicians are Blues or Reds

Not concerned with solving the nation’s problems but getting reelected instead
