Just look at what Dubya Bush did and how it affected the budget and the economy. Cut taxes and waged war against TWO countries at the same time.

Because Trump believes military people are Suckers and Losers. He's already screwing over the very people that voted for him. It's beautiful!
He will be fine he added Trillions to the deficit when he was in the last time. He’ll just run it up more, his new oligarchs….opps new administration will make cuts/curb spending in every department they represent and somehow become richer in the process. Everything will be fine…..
