Every household understands that when a financial catastrophe occurs it means that some things have to be postponed, regardless of merit or want. You make do and you cut back in ways that really have a financial impact. This is what America has to do now.

We can minimize the impact of that on our deficit and help rebuild by changing the following priorities: tax cuts, military spending, border wall spending and better enforcement of current financial laws.
