What does a TRUMP presidency look like?

With the increased defense budget, maybe the idea is to replace contractors with platoons of Army soldiers or Marines?

Trump pitches 37 percent cut to State Department budget

The Trump administration is proposing a 37 percent spending cut for the State Department and U.S. Agency for International Development budget, according to multiple reports.

U.S. officials say the suggested decrease would likely require staff reductions, including security contractors at diplomatic facilities overseas, The Associated Press said Tuesday.

It is almost like Benghazi didn't matter.

Not a cent will be cut from staff protection; there'll just be no diplomats for the guards to defend.

The diplomats will all be replaced by tweets.

Didn't work so well in Lebanon.

Take pork and cook it the same way you do your steak, with the same spices, and the flavour will be very similar.

Then why not just eat pork, since it's significantly cheaper?

If you can't make a taste difference between pork and beef, you ought to lay off the infected half-cooked beef for a while.

At well done, you might as well just have a hamburger. At least that'll be juicy.

And significantly easier to chew.

8 months, which makes her my stablest relationship like, ever. She's great.

I can tell the difference. Viper's the one who said they were basically the same.

In other news, it turns out that the responsibility for ordering the botched raid in Yemen, resulting in the deaths of a US Navy Seal and a number of women and children as well as, presumably some adult male Yeminis, belongs to "them" - the US military - and not Donald Trump.

Asked about the matter during an interview with Fox News' "Fox 'n' Friends," Trump repeatedly said "they" were responsible for the outcome of the mission, in reference to the military.

"This was a mission that was started before I got here. This was something they wanted to do," he said. "They came to me, they explained what they wanted to do ― the generals ― who are very respected, my generals are the most respected that we've had in many decades, I believe. And they lost Ryan.

He loves superlatives.

I respect them too much for everything not to be their fault.

Get better quality steaks then.

Sometimes, I do.  But at 10$-15$ a steak, I can't afford to have that for my everyday meal.

the price difference for regular cut in the grocery store isn't that much.  They're nearly identical in price, for a cheap quality steak.

ok, I was exagerating.

The underlings always taking the blame for a bad plan's failure.  Hmm, I think I remember some movie about that, with phantom divisions and all...
