This brief exerpt from a WP article on the budget seems to against everything you like to tell us what is wrong with the Left. Trump is proposing debt and more debt and cut benefits to the old and disabled to pay for the tax cut. 

"Remember Trump’s boast that he would “get rid of the $19 trillion in debt . . . over a period of eight years”?

Odin’s beard! He just hammered that promise to pieces. His budget would add $7 trillion to the debt over a decade — $2 trillion in the next two years alone — and even those numbers are based on the peculiar assumption that the economy will never again go into recession.

That promise has gone up, up and away. Trump proposes to cut $554 million from Medicare — health care for old folks — and some $250 billion to Medicaid, which provides health care to the poor."
