You will not be surprised to learn that the Zombie-Eyed Granny Starver (thank you, Charlie Pierce), aka House Speaker Paul Ryan, thinks that the new budget from the Trump regime is just peachy.
Of course he does because like all of Ryan’s best work, it’s heavy on the punishing of the olds and the poors and all the people who aren’t the Koch brothers. But what about the parts of it that just don’t make sense?
Ah, yes. The last refuge of the unprincipled: “I haven’t seen it yet.” But he’s not going to be bothered by that part. That part is his specialty. In Paul Ryan’s world, pixie dust and unicorn poop make all the numbers work.
