I was always led to believe that the Republicans were the party

Court House - I was always led to believe that the Republicans were the party of austerity and not the "tax and spenders." Now that Trump is in office, they are going to open the floodgates on defense spending and other unnecessary things like walls and reviving a dead coal industry. What is next, is he going to revive the horse and buggy trade? Make cobbling great again? Make blacksmithing great again? As long as he can get Russian mobsters to fund all these things, and not middle-class taxpayers, I'm all in.
