OK, and the relevance of dragging in Sanchez's brother into this debate or his deathsticks is? I don't see the relevance here and dragging people's personal lives into this makes it feel like we're not debating the budget but Sanchez's internal drama be what they are. 

So: we could argue that balancing the budget and paying down the national debt would allow us to reduce our interest payments which would save us $1 trillion per 4 years if we paid off our national debt or reduced it to a negligible amount. That is one reason to back cuts to the budget (but also another reason to suggest that tax cuts be put on hold in favor of gaining budget surpluses).

I haven't read this document and I might, but do we know for a fact what the Trump budget really cuts without reading the budget booklet they put out?

 

He's the one who brought him into the discussion.
