Here is a two part article by David Stockman on the impact of the tax cut and the spending increases.

Stockman tends to be bearish, and dismissive of Trump, but he does know about federal finance. He was Reagan's budget manager, and resigned after he got tired of the futility of trying to get Republicans in the Cabinet, let alone Congress, to accept budget cuts. His experiences in the Reagan administration are detailed in his book, "The Triumph of Politics", recommended reading for a understanding of the ingrained fiscal irresponsibility of our government.

I sure most would dismiss what he says as false news and anti-Trump propaganda.

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — North Korea says it has suspended nuclear and long-range missile tests and plans to close its nuclear test site.

The North's official Korean Central News Agency said the suspension of nuclear and ICBM tests went into effect Saturday.

The country says it's making the move to shift its national focus and improve its economy.

The pressure from China must be enormous. It is anyone's guess what the Chinese President told Kim Jong-un before the handshake and photo? Make peace or die soon?

Well now, they might have to take back that Nobel Peace Prize and give to someone more deserving.

Look on the bright side. The alternative was for Trump to cover all those issues in dozens and dozens of tweets, all of which would have been reposted here.

While the dems keep interviewing strippers, the world keeps on turning and good things keep getting done.

I can only assume we are seeing those good things because the dems HAVE NO FREAKING PART IN ANY OF THEM.

Which just shows why we should split the country - look at how much we can get done without the anchors!
