And I'm here with that congressman Kevin McCarthy the GOP whip and that Italian maybe -- be very practical.
He's right in the presence said tonight that you're seeing -- -- -- that's not gonna happen.
Well there's quite a few things because -- put these big lofty goals and he's done this before remember in past speeches where he said he -- cut the deficit in half in his first term.
He gives these lofty goals but never gives the details of the accountability here.
To get -- -- -- mean tax reform that we wanted to tax reform.
But it's almost when you listen to what he says it's his way or no way.
When he talks about about the Fed is talk tonight about racing and let's say for example the minimum.
Minimum wage to nine dollars an hour second -- and I don't think this program.
I don't think guys that yet but we have an economy this week.
And everything he talked about was taking a little more out of the economy when you take more out of -- you provide less for those to actually get to the middle class in the middle class to get higher up.
It's better that people able to keep more in their pocket and actually create more jobs.
Small business is at its lowest point in seventeen years of starting new jobs if he raises a threshold even hired to start a small business that -- nine dollars an hour.
We even going further down and they create more jobs than anybody else in America and that's the challenge that we have.
Senator John McCain is there between these disappointed he didn't speak about -- tonight that's of particular interest of his.
He didn't spend a lot of time on international.
Issues this necessity want.
-- and I'll tell you know what are what are what I really wanted to hear.
I wanna hear how we're both gonna work together and what I wanted was kind of -- first priority the first priority of where we currently are today with a sixteen trillion dollar deficit.
Say a pox on both houses if you don't pass a budget.
I want to see a budget passed I wanna see something that balances.
Balances a decade but balances.
And you've got -- senate where how ironic he's got the CEO of apple sitting up with the First Lady.
And the last time the -- Democrats in the senate passed the budget.
The iPad wasn't even introduced it now that on what their -- vision -- -- -- even.
And you can't do everything that he wanted to get done without even first laying -- plan.
-- -- -- -- In the American people heard the president -- -- -- sponsors and Marco Rubio the Tea Party response which we put on Greta -- dot com by senator Rand Paul.
But we have the written copy on people go to Greta -- to hear the speech he says the president does a big woe is me or the one point two trillion sequestered that he -- signed into law.
Some Republicans are joining him.
Few people understand that the -- does he would cut any spending it just slows the rate of growth so you would sequester.
Government will grow over seven trillion over the next decade he -- Rand Paul right.
-- polish which -- really asking is three cents on the dollar to be cut.
And this is what the president has remember when we went to the debt ceiling.
And he couldn't get anywhere this was the one thing he asked when he didn't want to do anything about it come in the future he wanted to ignore it member and his presidential campaign -- second base -- this would never happen.
He's never done any action to find cuts somewhere else even though the house the Republicans led last term and pass the bill twice -- just died in the senate assistant and take action.
Now that it's coming to the deadline he wants to -- -- that's just kicking the can down the road you can't do that.
We spend more than we bring in -- look.
In the first two months of this new fiscal year our revenue increased by 10% extra thirty billion.
But are spending increased 6716%.
More than 87 billion that -- same subject he said they just loved it thought yup I got to do that want.
I felt when he talked about the men and women in our military making sure that there able to do and be the very best yet we all agree.
I thought when he talked about.
Looking for the future in investing in research I'd like to invest in research -- I know that pays off.
But you can't make investments if he can't plan where -- money's going and if you don't have -- budget he can't do anything.
