The deficit will actually drop $5.2 trillion - to $3.8T - if we let his reckless tax cuts expire. Bonus? The 47% of Americans that don't pay income taxes will be reduced to 30%.

However, I don't know what he can do except look for an opening. He looks presidential and he can be likeable for 90 minutes. The problem is that he is a phony.
