Heritage Foundation: 64% of Trump's agenda already done, faster than Reagan
by Paul Bedard | Feb 27, 2018, 11:40 AM

With unprecedented speed, the Trump administration has already implemented nearly two-thirds of the 334 agenda items called for by the Heritage Foundation, a pace faster than former President Reagan who embraced the conservative think tank’s legendary “Mandate for Leadership” blueprint.

Thomas Binion, director of congressional and executive branch relations at Heritage, said that Trump has implemented 64 percent of the “unique policy recommendations” from the group.

At this stage of his presidency, Reagan had completed 49 percent of the Heritage policy recommendations.

“We’re blown away,” Binion said in an interview. Trump, he said, “is very active, very conservative, and very effective.”

Trump is proposing more deficit spending than any “Republican” President, and he’s doing it faster than any “Republican” President…..ever.  The Heritage Foundation cared about the debt just as long ago as November:

The consequences of runaway spending and debt are well known. They crowd out private investment, strain the economy, and risk full-scale fiscal crisis as the bloated U.S. budget treads on thinning ice. Every independent analysis repeats those warnings again, and again — only to be ignored.

Yeah, quite a bogus accounting method.

Agreed, however we have yet to see what SIZE the effect of slashing the Corp Income Tax is going to have on growing our way out of debt.

If the visitor CEOs who followed him back from Switzerland to tell him they were bringing Billions of investment capital and jobs to America because of that increase in Their bottom line are an indicator, . . . . . this seemingly insane orgy of spending May not turn out to be as bad as it looks.
My 'Viking Hunter' High Adventure Alternate History Series is FREE, ALL 3 volumes, at most ebook retailers including Ibooks, Barnes and Noble, Kobo, and more.

In Vol 2 the weapons come out in a winner take all war on two fronts.

Vol 3 opens with the rigged murder trial of the villain in a Viking Court under Viking law to set the stage for the hero's own murder trial.

Just assuming the numbers in the President's budget (with their optimistic growth rates), the amount added to the debt is massive over the next 10 years ($7.2T) (that's certainly way more than I would have thought Heritage would NORMALLY have been comfortable with):
