Americas Science Funding deterioration over the Years!?

In America, something unusual is in progress for almost the past two decades, that is the severe haircut carried out on scientific funding, haircut after haircut into Science funding since Bush's time, or it might even go back further into previous Nixon era. It is ugly, time and again, Presidents after President made policies and regulations that did not allocate or spent enough money for science, furthermore they took the money away from science, well, did not fund enough in the first place by cutting major funds for science, cutting Billions of dollars that supposed to be spent for Scientific Research. Bush was the worst 'NO Science" guy, who betrayed science, and now Trump, he goes even further down the road to disregard Science and research, Trump's policies towards science almost looks like there is a Anti-Science guy in the WH!?...much worse than GW Bush's that is unimaginable, who for sure screwed up science funding big time.
Five years ago, PBS posted this question?, remember five years ago, as of today, the question becomes more relevant and reality!

Will funding cuts kill scientific discovery in the US?
