I'm really ready to tar and feather them all.  They want to get rid of guns?  Let's start my taking them away from those that guard THEM, and then let's talk about term limits.

Trump should recall all of Congress to Washington for a special session, and make all of their flights have a mandatory 8 hour  layover at JFK.

Someone needs to be fired at the Kennedy Center. 

I do notice the list above says $35M while everything I've heard and read said $25M. Does that out the whole list in question?  Lots of different number than what Ive heard bantered about. I heard roughly $1B for Amtrak.
