Donald Trump has just proposed something shocking

Donald Trump has just proposed something shocking

President Trump has been no stranger to controversy since assuming office, but his latest proposal has resulted in stunned reactions.

President Donald Trump certainly made good on his promise to shake things up in the U.S. government, but one proposal he recently made in his fiscal 2018 budget is causing a lot of anger and consternation. Trump wants to slash the National Institutes of Health by $5.8 billion down to $25.9 billion, and health groups are decrying the move.

Specifically, health groups say this move may block research into the next cure, and who knows what the could be: Zika, Alzheimer’s, superbugs — all are getting intensive research that may need to be reduced because of this cut, they argue.

“It is possible that the next cure for some cancer is sitting there waiting to be discovered, and it won’t get to the table,” said Dr. Georges Benjamin, executive director of the American Public Health Association, in an Associated Press report.

“All of us woke up this morning in a state of shock about this number,” said Dr. Blase Polite, a cancer specialist at the University of Chicago who chairs the American Society for Clinical Oncology’s government relations committee, in the AP report.

    He (The Trump Dump) is an idiot from Hell and he just thinks idiotic thoughts and tweets them, so his name is in the papers, TV, tweeted by others and that’s because he has to see his name everywhere he looks and that’s why he names his buildings and casinos after himself everywhere he goes! He’s all about his ego and trying to scare everyone to death with his stupid ideas! Just an additional sign of his growing insanity!!!!

    He wants to take that money he’s cutting to put in the military so he can start his war.
