I think that we can agree that he has done at least one thing.
Increasing the budget and removing bureaucracy are two completely different things. Getting anything done with the VA is an absolute nightmare, and that Department is constantly riddled with scandals, fraud, waste, and abuse of taxpayer funds.

In other words, piss poor example to refer to.
