Voting For Trump, and Getting What You Voted For: Coming Home to roost

AT THE SENIOR CENTER, in my small southern U.S. town, only I voted for Hillary. Several of the others did not vote, the rest voted for the Donald. I know this because they told me. Good, conservative Christian types, alt right, resisting rendering unto Caesar or giving unto the poor. Now, President Trump has released his budget, which is public knowledge. In it he drastically cuts federal funding for meals on wheels, and for assistance to low income seniors, including housing and utility assistance. But, at least we will have a bright shiny new wall, somewhere or other, and the complete defeat of some myth called "radical Islamic terrorism" (terrorists are inherently not Islamic nor any other religion. They are in fact banished from their prior faith by the ninety nine point nine percent of the Islamic faithful, as are KKK members by true Christians.) Hillary, we can assume, would either have increased funding for seniors, or left it alone. Best guess is that she would have done the reverse of Trump: she would have increased spending for social programs, and would have left the already bloated military budget alone, giving instructions to make do with a mere six hundred billion or so a year. We do not know what Hillary would have done about the wall. Best guess is that she would have rolled her eyes at the very idea, laughed out loud in her shrill raucous way, and gone about her business, since she actually has a brain, and since, since 2008 more Mexicans have left this country and returned to Mexico than have entered this country from Mexico. For verification of this little known and oft ignored factoid, log onto the sociology department at Princeton University, and read the words of the world's leading authority on human migration, a certain Professor Mathews. Even the republicans don't like Trump's budget. Not enough tax breaks for the extremely wealthy, among other concerns.
