Isn't This Fun?
Some days being President must just be so much fun. First you propose a budget based on optimistic if not utterly dishonest revenue projections, you leave out several of the biggest costs your programs will incur, then you propose slashing and zeroing out hundreds of programs that mostly benefit the poor, the poor and sick ,and the poor, sick and disabled, while making tax cuts to the rich permanent, and you still wind up with a huge deficit. And you grin at reporters and watch the rest of the world go crazy. Watch Democrats tear out their hair! Hell, even half the Republicans are having heart attacks. Such fun!
Why it makes you want to do something really fun, like proposing a whole new arsenal of even deadlier nuclear weapons! Then maybe threaten to bomb Iran!
Owning a baseball team was kind of fun, and fraternity hijinks lots of fun, gaming the electoral system very satisfying, but there's nothing like being irresponsible to the max and way outrageous, and there's nothing they can do about it!
Bush's budget likely to trigger months of contentious debate in Congress
Happy Holidays 2024

These beauteous forms,
Through a long absence, have not been to me
As is a landscape to a blind man’s eye;
But oft, in lonely rooms, and ‘mid the din
