The line item veto is an excellent idea. All of that pork, and the influence they gain from dispensing it is the root of our problems. This President needs to be fair, and line ALL of the wasteful projects out. | |||

Besides, I doubt it would be Constitutional. And Presidents would use it to punish political enemies not save budget. God Bless and Protect the Once and Future President, Donald John Trump. | |||

Well, as I said after the election, I'm sure Trump sent a clear message to the bureaucrats warning them to not issue new rules. They thumbed their noses at him. And as they say, "elections have consequences." Thumbing your nose at the incoming boss isn't a great way to start. _______________________ “The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals.

I know I'm late to the party, but God Bless. It feels damn good to say President Trump instead of President Elect. Thank you President Trump. | |||

Well of course it is, but just because it is an excellent idea doesn't mean it's a good idea. If Congress can't control the President by controlling spending, what good are they? Would you be willing to give the line item veto to President Obama? Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me. When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." - Justice Janice Rogers Brown | |||

Honestly, it is too much power. I wouldn't give it to any President. God Bless and Protect the Once and Future President, Donald John Trump. | |||

In a perfect country--even a very good one--it wouldn't matter who was president. Who is the president of Switzerland? _________________________ “Remember, remember the fifth of November!" | |||

You bring up a good point (as usual), but it's been a really long time since I've seen Congress control spending for any reason. | |||

Exactly. Many of us have seen that in the workplace, EEO pussy power in place of quals. In some organizations, esp. federal employment, white males are actively rejected as candidates 100% of the time. Lover of the US Constitution Wile E. Coyote School of DIY Disaster | |||

recall that the President is only one of the co-equal branches he doesn't necessarily 'control' as much as cooperates I still think the line item veto is a good idea why trash an entire budget because one item is massive pork spending but everything else might be just fine? its not so much about retaliation as it is responsibility in spending NOT having the line item veto is why we haven't had balanced budgets the past decade or so the difference this time is that a businessman is running the executive branch [B] Against ALL enemies, foreign and DOMESTIC | |||

If this is Jib Jab, I truly apologize. I just could not resist: "On Saturday an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he’d been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, “I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.” The Marine looked at the man and said, “Sir, Mr. Obama is no longer president.” The old man said “Okay” and walked away. On Sunday, the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine “I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.” The Marine again told the man “Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Obama is no longer president.” The man thanked him and, again, just walked away. Monday, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same U. S. Marine, saying “I would like to go in and meet with President Obama.” The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, “Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Obama. I’ve told you already that Mr. Obama is no longer president. Don’t you understand?” The old man looked at the Marine and said, “Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it.” The Marine snapped to attention, saluted and said, “See you tomorrow, sir.” " | |||

That's the way George Washington saw it... the role of Chief Magistrate was only to execute the law... not to make law. That's the job of Congress. However, Congress has since ceded far too much power, in the form of "agencies" and "rule making" to the executive branch of government. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

I love the attention to detail. President Trump is going to temporarily suspend all environmental rules that would hinder or halt construction of the necessary wall on our Southern border. I love that the Trump administration has gotten ahead of the games that we know the Obama lovers are going to try to play. | |||

Good for him. Bring back integrity and the rule of law. Trump promises 'major investigation' into alleged voter fraud http://www.foxnews.com/politic...ged-voter-fraud.html President Trump announced Wednesday that he will be asking for a “major investigation” into alleged nationwide voter fraud -- a day after his press secretary was grilled on Trump’s claims that 3 million to 5 million people had voted illegally in November. Trump announced the move on Twitter, and said the probe will focus on “those registered to vote in two states, those who are illegal and even those registered to vote who are dead (and many for a long time). _________________________ "Sometimes I wonder whether the world is being run by smart people who are putting us on or by imbeciles who really mean it."
