cut bill and the latest funding plan will push the deficit to $804 billion this year. the predicts the trillion dollar deficit by 2020. the budget chairman, a republican, says it is particularly so boring that mandatory spending continues to grow, as such an unsustainable pace, making it even more difficult to achieve balance. senate minority leader chuck schumer said this. the cbo s latest report exposes this game behind their rosy rhetoric from republicans that their tax bill would pay for itself. we are waiting for the next move. we ll go inside the pentagon for military options on syria. facebooks marks mark seb walker- mark zuckerberg on the hill. will you behave as an adult, a major corporate leader? music shannon: dungarees? who s telling the truth?
steve from louisiana. tom price, the budget chairman, who got an endorsement from paul ryan. this new name is south carolina congressman, trey gowdy, the chairman of the benghazi committee investigating hillary clinton. he said he s not necessarily interested in the job but he has a lot of allies who would like to see him in the position. he told me for a quick minute on the walk over here that it s a terrible job because everyone eventually dislikes you, laughingly. however, he s an interesting guy to keep an eye on. he could be a compromise choice if this race goes to multiple ballots as we expect. the other thing to keep an eye on here, currently, right now if you run for a leadership position, you can fall back on the one you currently have. steve could one for majority leader but still have his position if he loses the race. there could be a motion to rid
out some plans to support them. and i m certainly supportive of them. but we do have an opportunity to make this work for our state. the majority of georgians are not for obamacare. but in this conservative state, six out of ten georgians support expanding medicaid. and i think we can do it the right way. we can do it like jan brewer did. she did it at no cost to the state of arizona. john kasich in ohio, the budget chairman back in the 90s when we balanced the budget has done it in his state. at the same time he is reducing taxes he has inherited three years ago, an $8 billion deficiency. and now he has a billion and a half surplus. we have to look at the issues and study them. it s the law of the land. have to say how can we make it work best for the citizens of our state. well, medicaid expansion is a part of obamacare, the affordable care act. so it s affecting your state. it could help your state. is there anything that would turn georgians when they realize
years. that sounds great. but in october of this past year, the president and his health care secretary did away with the class act which wiped out about $70 billion worth of the projected $143 billion savin savings. you say they knew going in the class act wasn t going to work and that was a gimmick to sell it. the budget chairman called the class act a scheme. they included $1100 million in exchanges that chips away at the deficit reduction. the real doozy in terms of that sleight of hand is the fact that they actually said they were going to reduce medicare by $529 billion. they haven t reduced medicare or payments from providers by $208 billion under the sgr, what makes anybody think they re going to do that with the $529 billion. this thing is going to add hundreds of billions if not trillions of dollars to our debt and deficit and we can t afford it. real quickly, you would know something about that. you were in a small business and you owned one for 31 years.
and like every white house, there s a small coball of people that surround the president that he trusts and works with and i believe it was those, the chicago guys, the political team, that convinced him that it would be smarter for him to wait and let paul ryan go first and he would look like the sensible guy in the game. let me explain that a little bit before you respond. paul ryan, the budget chairman, puts out his proposal, his budget including medicare reform and the feeling in the whi house was, let him go first, he ll look unreasonable, but never did the president say, forget the other side, i put this commission together, i m going to lead, i m going to say to the american people we ve got to take these tough steps. this commission has come back, let s do this and by the way, you re one of the chicago guys, right? well, i presume so, but i have to say that we did what we felt was in the best interest of moving this issue ford. as i said, i think we came
