Schwarzenegger blasts Trump budget for taking money from 'poor little kids'

Former California Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger (R) criticized President Trump’s fiscal 2020 budget proposal on Tuesday, which includes cuts to domestic spending and more money for defense.

“President Trump, I have a question,” Schwarzenegger began in 30-second clip he released on Twitter on Tuesday. “Why do you take $1.3 billion from after school programs in your 2020 budget when you go and do tax reforms, which is gonna cost the taxpayers $500 billion ever year?

“Why give it to the rich folks and take it away from the poor little kids? It doesn’t make any sense,” he continued.

“Maybe that’s what you did at the Trump University and stuff like that but doesn’t make any sense normally. So, put it back in, okay?” the “Terminator” actor added.
