Sen. Johnson: We Need Trump to Lead, Not to Continue Funding the Deep State at Biden’s Levels

EXCERPT:

JOHNSON: “We're all going to repeal and replace ObamaCare, but now people are defending it. But again, you can even eliminate Medicaid, I've shown that, and there's still hundreds of billions of dollars, couple hundred billion in discretionary, couple hundred billion in other mandatory that is above and beyond 2019 outlays plus up for population inflation, fully inflated 2019. There's literally about four to five hundred billion dollars that I'm spending that's above those levels. So, again, go back where a business person would. This would be a five minute conversation in a business, saying, guys, I told you, you could increase your budget based on inflation and the number of customers we serve. You can't stand above that. Cut it. Get back down to a reasonable level. That's -- we need President Trump to lead on this. He needs to be fully committed to not funding the deep state at President Biden's levels.”
