Wow, this guy is just sickening.

If he had said: economy, I would have said "ugh...but does have a point", climate...I would have laughed because anybody that suggests that climate is more important than immigration has serious issues, but to say that budget appropriations, the most corrupted and vile part of the federal system....the so called golden faucet where everyone just has their hand in someone else's pocket, should have priority? That's just ridiculous.

I've worked in a federally sponsored university lab for a couple of years now and the amount of backroom negotiations and deals that goes on, even on the scientific level, in order to receive substantial federal grants is beyond belief. Not to mention that the science sector at most universities doesn't even include things like lobbying and such, where most of the really dirty stuff happens.
