    I think the president's budget, no matter how absurd, sets a tone for the actual funding debate. This matters.https://twitter.com/morningmoneyben/status/842337240458096641 …

    Budget day drives me nuts. Trump is not cutting funding for anything. He doesn't control the purse. He is just saying stuff.

        @morningmoneyben When you start discussion at -30%, it makes -15% look like a compromise...Art of the Deal

        Only if GOP in control of Congress don't ALSO want -30% but they do! Ryan's budget cuts are same.

        He does echo the heart of GOP. Applying the ax of cuts and further separating the haves from the have nots.

        Remember, Trump controls the party and he will primary anyone who won't play ball. You think Trump cares about re-election?

        @brianstelter Of course it matters. This rhetoric, when viewed geopolitically, is disastrous and puts our country in danger.

        The power is in the framing. A giant Overton window with winks to every immoral GOP fever dream. @jonallendc @citizengatsby @morningmoneyben

        I'm not sure his budget proposal will set contours for debate. Congressional Rs also look at how he's polling now.

        @brianstelter Budget made clear priorities R broadly in line w/the GOP in control of Congress. Draconian Trump cuts same as Ryan

        Agreed. Proposing that which no previous president has proposed moves the Overton window.

        But it is the starting point for future negotiations. In that way, it is still harmful.

        Only a starting pt if the GOP in control of Congress don't ALSO want the draconian cuts but they DO!
