Oh, and 10% increase in military spending! I don't even the war hawk Rubio would've been so bold.

Congress controls the purse string. So, I don't expect to see too much difference in spending under Trump. Some improvement, yes, but not enough to make a marked change.
Trump is not filling hundreds of positions connected directly to the administration. But, it won't save we taxpayers money. Congress will just take that money and spend it elsewhere, probably on increasing their own staffs.
While the overall federal budget will remain about the same, HOPEFULLY most of it will be allocated to more sensible programs, like building a wall, the military, maybe the space program, etc...

- Trump tweeted that January and February 'were the strongest consecutive months for hiring since August and September 2015'

What boycott?! Ivanka Trump sales skyrocket in February - with brand reporting record-breaking number of purchasesIn an interview with Refinery 29 , company president Abigail Klem said: 'Since the beginning of February, they were some of the best performing weeks in the history of the brand. 'For several different retailers Ivanka Trump was a top performer online, and in some of the categories it was the [brand’s] best performance ever.' On Amazon, Ivanka has had the top selling fragrance for the past two weeks, new stock is frequently being added to her Zappos page, and on the London-based e-commerce startup Lyst has Ivanka as the eleventh best seller on the site for the month of February. That represents an increase of 346 % from January, when the brand ranked at 550 on the site.

Here's a link to a CNN story verifying the fact that 2/3 of our U.S. Navy Fighter jets can't fly now due to repair delays and a severe lack of spare parts. It all goes back to Obama severely cutting funding for the military over the past 8 years. Now the military has got to be rebuilt, no matter what the cost. You can thank you buddy Obama for that.
By the way, this is just the tip of the iceberg. We have the same problem with our ships, other aircraft, etc... In fact, 53% of our Navy's total air fleet is grounded. Thank God Trump is coming to the rescue.

The Freedom Caucus bad? The advice he is getting is bad. Ryan is such a POS.
Ryan is a scapegoat. Trump was JUST as responsible for the healthcare debacle.
Time is your friend. Impulse is your enemy. -John Bogle
Trump and Ryan are in bed together for now. That will last about another 6 weeks at most.
The real debacle is Obamacare. The Ryan plan was more of the same. Trump still has a chance to fix it, but booty bumping Ryan while blasting the freedom caucus is a really bad decision.
Well, Trump trusted Ryan, and Ryan tried to write a bill all by himself without consulting with the many interests in the party. In that respect, Trump is responsible for trusting Ryan, but have you noticed that it is Trump meeting with the conservatives and negotiating things related to health care again?
Trump is a workaholic. If he has to do his job and Ryan's job too, he will do it if it makes him effective. Trump doesn't care what the final bill looks like (he is not an ideologue), only that it passes and fixes things. Kind of refreshing, but dangerous in that he would be willing to work with the dims and get a bill the republicans really don't like.
Ryan may never be a scapegoat again because Trump is likely to bypass him entirely in the future and work directly with the house and senate.
He spends an awful a lot of time golfing to be considered a workaholic. A lot more than the last president, and I'm sure the posters on this board wouldn't consider him a workaholic.
You think Ryan acted without Price? If so, you're mistaken. Trump can't push this bill off on Ryan because Price was integral to the bill.
Rush started preparing his audience for there being no tax cuts.
So, no repeal and replace...no tax cuts...Gorsuch to be fillabustered.
Somebody show me how POTUSDT isn't just business as usual? If he continues to flounder, the GOP is in deep doo doo.
It's impossible to play more golf than Obama.
Trump took ownership of the bill. He has never blamed Ryan.
Yep, Price was in there with Ryan. Point taken.
Gorsuch will be confirmed with 51 votes. If the repubs don't change the rules now, the dems will do it next time they have a candidate and repubs stand in the way, so changing the rules is hardly the crisis the camera whore Shumer says it is. They're just blocking him because Obama's pick was blocked, anyway.
Repeal and replace will happen, and tax cuts will as well. He's been president for a couple of months now...that is all. If nothing happens on these fronts by this time next year, then you can say business as usual, but not yet. It takes a while to turn something as big and cumbersome as the US government bureaucracy.
Were you expecting an outsider to come in and work miracles with the dems being angry they lost and many repubs being part of the swamp needing drained?
