President Trump, Blind to Deficit?

A 2-year bilateral budget deal now agreed, has anyone noticed President Trump never talks about the federal deficit?  Does Trump not know that American Government is $22.5 trillion in debt and counting?  Does he not know that the more government borrows to spend, even on important things like infrastructure, the larger the debt becomes? Moms and Dads Across America Struggling to Make Ends Meet Let’s take a poll.  Who out there thinks Trump is oblivious to the deficit? Raise your hands.  Okay, now who thinks Trump knows but doesn’t care?  Hmmm, looks about even.  So if either possibility is true, why would even rabid, Trump-supporting Republicans be overjoyed that their President is spending America into bankruptcy?  I ask that because I keep hearing appeals from Republican congressional candidates in the 7th District and beyond, running on a platform of cutting federal spending.  From them I keep hearing the obligatory “dinner table” story, you know, the one where mom and pop

How many times have we heard it from the liberal left, and also the libertarian right, that Trump means to get America into another major war?  That just shows a lack of understanding.  So let’s clear that up. Now granted, Trump is different.  People do not know how to take him.  But that is because politicians rarely tell the truth.  The political class, generally, is not excited that the people might see and understand what is truly happening in this world.  And they do not desire for people to know what they are doing against the people’s interests.  Therefore, politicians talk in circles.  They speak mantra rather than message.  They hide their true purposes within crafty, circular rhetoric, which leaves listeners wondering what they just heard.  It’s a talent. But that’s not Trump, thankfully.  Trump says what he means.  And he says it in ways a common man can relate.  After all, Trump is a common man, a builder among tradespersons.  He speaks the language.  He tells folks wha
