“Emmitsburg Mayor Frank Davis voted for Donald Trump in hopes he would cut federal spending. Now Davis hopes those cuts don’t include the permanent cancellation of classes at the National Fire Academy, which is part of the town’s identity and helps drive its economy. Davis is also a chief at Emmitsburg’s firehouse, known as the Vigilant Hose Company.”

Trump killed the Fema training academy. It’s not coming back.

      Fucker probably wants kids to starve and go homeless.

      There’s really not a lot to cut that doesn’t directly affect children or old people outside of the military.

      No one will dare cut military because it’s the largest jobs program on the planet.
