Some Of This, Some Of That.

       Say, Trump has increased the debt by $2 Trillion in two years. I heard it claimed he's running the government like one of his failed businesses. Ya know, he managed to accomplish that by not having half of his staff and all of his departments are half staffed. So I guess, if he fired everybody, he'd be in debt twice as much for the next two years. His plan is to explain that the country can't afford to get rid of him or the debt would double again.
       He seems to be using our country as an experiment to see if he can get away with gutting America. Make America Great Again is his slogan, but he seems to be doing everything he can to make it second class again. Or maybe third class. Which would you prefer 800,000 unpaid workers or a Wall?
       Those workers can stay unpaid for years as far as Trump is concerned, and he thinks they'll like it. I'll bet he would leave them unpaid until the wall is completed. I still think a moat would be better. Even guards in prisons are in that unpaid worker group. What if they decide to go on strike? Maybe Mr. Trumps sons could pull some guard duty.
       Maybe we should charge a tax on every Congressman and woman and every Senator and the President of one percent of their net worth for every day the government is shut down. I'll bet the government would be up and running by Monday morning. It's funny how money makes honey flow. I'm in favor of border security, but walls just don't work. At least not on the scale Trump envisions.
