Right now, I'd be tickled with continuation of his tax cuts, a 20% budget cut and doing something to address Social Security.

What are the odds that could happen without a bipartisan approach?

I lol’d at burp the alphabet.

Hahaha me too!

When my daughter was auditioning for acting programs her "other skills" resume section included "Can belch loudly on command". The U of Michigan board called her on it and she delivered.

I actually think the immediate fix for Social Security isn’t really that politically onerous.

Eliminating the cap wouldn’t be a big deal at the ballot box but it would be hard to get through congress.

You're advocating getting rid of my Christmas fund. I'm sure others would feel the same way.

No Christmas for you.

Maybe a lump of coal. From Newcastle.

You have to put it through simply by itself. A one paragraph bill. No tie ins to energy/defense/Trans bathrooms…

Everyone knows it’s the next step and doing it earlier will be better than later. You can offset a little of it by raising the maximum benefits.
