November 19, 20169 yr So Bannon wouldn't meet your requirement of fiscally conservative. In regards to this spending program, no, he would not. I am not really sure about his other views on economic issues and am not that worried about it either way because he is not president, Trump is...and I think everyone would agree that Trump is pretty much his own man who is not afraid to do and say what he wants. The whole national debt thing REALLY SCARES me. I blame both parties. The Dems demonize anyone who says that we need to cut spending...saying they are trying to starve school kids and little old ladies on welfare if you even try to keep spending the same. Only in Washington if you spend $1 million on a program in 2015 and $1 million on the same program in 2016 do they say you have "cut" spending. It is a crazy way to look at it. Republicans have historically been scared of being tarred and feathered by the Dems and their obedient MSM so they won't deal with the issue either. So we keep spending and keep printing money. It's like musical chairs and someday the music is going to stop and it will not be pretty IMO.

Dems have been guilty of doling out entitlement programs and contributing to the debt , but let's not forget the pork Repubs send to the defense industry and other special interests when it's their turn with the checkbook. Not to mention tax cuts when we still have bills to pay.

November 19, 20169 yr :lol2: Republicans sure sound like victims of democrat bullies. Actually in many instances they have been because the MSM has been right there with the Dems helping them out. Trump is the first R to really call out the media and turn the tables a bit...one of the main reasons his new name is President Elect Trump...

Trump is the first R to really call out the media and turn the tables a bit...one of the main reasons his new name is President Elect Trump... Call out the media ? For what? Covering his scandals? His falsehoods? I wish he would call out the fake news and those who believe are this garbage spread out there.
November 20, 20169 yr Call out the media ? For what? Covering his scandals? His falsehoods? I wish he would call out the fake news and those who believe are this garbage spread out there. I don't even know what the bolded means?? If you think Trump got anywhere in the vicinity of fair coverage once he was going head to head with HRC by the MSM, I really do not know what to say. HRC was absolutely protected by the MSM and Trump was vilified. In the primaries, he was treated like royalty by the MSM for two obvious reasons...(1) he generated ratings and (2) the MSM thought he had the least chance of beating HRC. Once the won the R primaries, the MSM did not even try to look unbiased any longer. They were simply a division of the DNC.
November 20, 20169 yr I was hoping for more ousider inclusion, leaving the rhinos as occasional advisors.
November 23, 20169 yr Dr Carson for HUD. Just over a week ago Carson's representative said he turned down the HHS gig because "his background didn’t prepare him to run a federal agency." Guess he took a class or something. :lol2: Ben Carson turns down Trump Cabinet post because he doesn’t have experience – TheBlaze

Guess he took a class or something. :lol2: Ben Carson turns down Trump Cabinet post because he doesn’t have experience – TheBlaze He took online Trump University courses. Kidding aside, if true, Carson felt his experience was good enough to run the country but not a Federal Agency? That doesn't make sense.
November 23, 20169 yr He took online Trump University courses. Kidding aside, if true, Carson felt his experience was good enough to run the country but not a Federal Agency? That doesn't make sense. Yea, who knows, but I thought it was funny. :lol2:
November 29, 20169 yr Gen Patraeus is being considered for a cabinet position. How do you base your campaign on Lyin' Hillary and her email server and then consider Gen Patraeus? This on top of Gen Flynn who reportedly had a secret internet connection installed to get around govt rules.
November 29, 20169 yr So I can't seem to find exactly what I'm looking for through skimming the web so I will ask here: What current cabinet positions have been filled already and by whom?
