We all know how Trump feels about veterans and it's probably to cover up his own "bone spurs" cowardice when he was called to serve. However, he's also about $3 Trillion dollars short of justifying the extension of the tax break he promised to his uber-wealthy friends to pay them back for those lofty sums they invested in his election.

If we recall . . .

Trump failed in his attempt to abolish the limit on the national debt so he's turning over every rock and scraping the bottom of every barrel for how to keep that tax break for his friends in the national budget which is coming due in March.

""Why? Why do this?"

Answer to that question:

It's Donald Trump. The word "Ethics" should have been Feliz's first clue.

To Trump, that word alone is like sunlight to a vampire in a syfi movie.

As I said before. With budget negotiations already underway for a vote in March, Trump is in a bad spot. He's desperate to offset that tax break for the wealthy people who invested in his election. They're demanding a return on that investment.

Every spending cut Trump is making is because of that and he doesn't care who or how many he has to hurt to get it. Not to mention that his tariff scheme is losing ground and some of his other big ticket cuts is running into resistance from the federal courts.

And then there's the mid-terms to worry about and Trump's slim margins in both the House and Senate are on shaky ground.

What you're seeing before your eyes is Trump running out of time to keep that promised tax cut in the budget and in the process of slowly unraveling.

I'm looking ahead two years for a big change of leadership in both the House and the Senate and hopefully an Articles of Impeachment against Trump to put an end to his carnage.
