Good point - in political speak, “underfunding” or “cutting funding” means budgeting less than the agency says it needs, or reducing the planned future increase of the agency’s funding.

I agree - every once in a while, we (you) elect them, and they often get reelected; then we go back to more sensible government for a while, until the next “messiah” shows up....

He’s the same person who likes to antagonize cops on the road...
