With Trump, it’s never clear whether he is truly ignorant

You can't balance the Federal budget without increasing
taxes,

or reducing benefits, or more likely both.    It's not
mathematically or politically possible.

There's no line item in the Federal budget for waste.
Cutting waste is GOP-speak for cutting programs that the
megadonors don't like and that the voters would object to
if they knew the real agenda.

But for now he's still trying to have it both ways -

Trump, in an interview with CNBC in March, indicated he
would be open to cuts to Social Security and Medicare. The
former president said there is a lot you can do in terms
of entitlements, in terms of cutting.”

Karoline Leavitt, press secretary for Trump’s campaign,
said in a statement to The Associated Press on Tuesday that
Trump will continue to strongly protect Social Security
and Medicare in his second term.”

But in GOP-speak, balanced budget and entitlement reform
are code for eliminating or privatizing Social Security,
Medicare, Medicaid, Obamacare - then blaming it on
Democrats.
