Because he hasn't actually slashed anything yet. It's all guesswork based on some promised spending on the military and some tax cuts. But he can always do deficit spending and it would actually make sense if the mil spending goes domestic instead of in the US MIC.

But we should be very suspicious still. I'm not saying oh let's coddle him because he hasn't harmed us. Critique the fucker and be surprised if he actually delivers.

I mean, he passed those two bills (C-2 and C-5 I think?) so he's a conservative even before slashing anything.

Wait, I don't think C-2 passed yet. I wrote some stern letters on that one.

C-5 is also an undemocratic disaster of sorts but they did amend some of the worst parts. Still bad. So yeah, no question there.
