Just saw this and thought it was humorous. They aren’t dealing with a light weight.

Although President Donald Trump, as a leader, has been generally good for the United States economy, the government continues to spend more money than it takes in, racking up huge deficits every fiscal year. The president, thankfully, has suggested multiple ways to start reversing this overspending issue.

One of those plans was to save money by cutting foreign aid, especially to countries that have a history of attempting to undermine American interests and the safety of its allies. However, when a bipartisan group of individuals, including Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, undermined that plan, the White House instead canceled pay increases for federal workers.

They pulled an ‘aid’ scam on him, undermining his policy, so he responded with a shocking cut of his own. It’s strange that, after all this talk of the need for better government spending control, the legislature would do this to the only person trying to fix it.
