Deficit Increased by $7B under Trump, But now the GOP tries to claim fiscal Responsibility????

[Nuthin' Fancy]

Remember Cheney back in the Bush years proudly saying "Deficits don't matter"? And every Republican legislator agreeing with them?

Every one? You're lying.

Remember the GOP shutting down the government during the Obama years

Remember the Dems shutting down the government during the Trump years?

Sure, the democrats shut the government down?

July 30 2018
President Donald Trump Monday threatened to shut down the federal government if Congress does not include funding for a border wall.

"If we don’t get border security after many, many years of talk within the United States, I would have no problem doing a shutdown," Trump said.

December 22, 2018
White House officials reached out to federal agencies late Friday night with instructions to prepare for an orderly shutdown. Nine departments and several agencies with hundreds of thousands of workers began grinding to a halt following a legislative impasse after President Donald Trump threatened to close down part of the government if he didn’t get funds for his border wall.

The shutdown was assured when both the House and Senate adjourned Friday without reaching any compromise. Government funding for the departments and agencies lapsed at midnight.

I agree. Aren't they called the Tax and Spend party. Yes I do believe they are.

Here's a good description of what the GOP did to our economy back in the early part of the Obama Administration.

Five Myths About the Sequester | Brookings

Thomas Mann and Norman Ornstein argue that our political system was not designed to be efficient, but it wasn’t supposed to be self-destructive, either. They debunk some misconceptions about the sequester and its impact.

www.brookings.edu

And that was over a 2.3% cut to just PART of our spending.

This moron wants to cut it FORTY per cent across the board.

Todd needs to go sit in the corner

And that was over a 2.3% cut to just PART of our spending.

And Obama and the Dems whined!!!
And here you were claiming Obama was all fiscally conservative. LOL!

This moron wants to cut it FORTY per cent across the board.

You know what you've got when you have to borrow 40%
of every dollar of spending?

WAY TOO MUCH FUCKING SPENDING!!!

We raise the debt ceiling routinely. It is nothing more than writing the check to pay for debts you already accrued.

Money you haven't spent yet isn't debt.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

The debt ceiling covers EXISTING DEBT

Jesus

Right. Can't add new debt. You can pay off all the old debt you want.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

The U.S. defaulting would "likely precipitate a historic financial crisis that would compound the damage of the continuing public health emergency," Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen wrote in the Wall Street Journal over the weekend. "Default could trigger a spike in interest rates, a steep drop in stock prices and other financial turmoil.

Who said anything about defaulting? Just match spending to receipts.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

So far under Biden, it's one up roughly $60,744,298 per month.

Does that count the $1.5 trillion he wants to spend?

Does that count the $3.5 trillion he wants to spend?

to the GOP: If you don’t want to help save the country, get out of the way so you don't destroy it

GW Bush inherited a balanced budget and projected surplus..
The GOP Congress spent like CRAZY and completely wasted and squandered that balanced budget. (then they crashed the economy 7 years later)

In 2016, Obama's last year, the US annual deficit was at $587 B a year.
In 2020 the US deficit was projected to be $1.1 T, precovid (it came in at $3T)

Trump and the GOP doubled the yearly budget deficit in just 3 years, AND they never had 3% GDP annually.

Now these trash republican try and claim to be the fiscally responsible ones even though the GOP has destroyed the countries finances. The GOP refuses to do the right thing and fund our government to keep the economy booming under Biden. The GOP has raised the debt ceiling countless times for themselves, but never for anybody else. the GOP is playing games with our economy. The economy is booming and the GOP are jealous because they such at the economy.

This is just another example of the joke and failure of the GOP. The GOP has destroyed our finances, and they won't work with the dems to help our country. The GOP doesn't care about our country at all, they care about the GOP. Party over country. Why else would the GOP spend so recklessly for so long???

Everything posted here is 100% fact, I know you hate it, I know you people are squirming and crying right now, but the truth can be a tough pill for Trumpers to swallow. You hate the truth. You hate my facts. Facts are kryptonite to a Trumper.

DId the Dems vote for the border funding?

Like when Obama told the Republicans to get in the back seat?

 

[basquebromance]

solution:

punt the debt limit years and years into the future

Just raise it to an absurd number and tell people ‘Yeah, we effectively abolished it', and now we’re like every other rich nation on earth in that we’re not afflicted by this dumb law anymore

Without "tree equity", we're doomed.

Honey, did you notice any change when the government shutdown?

No.

Me neither.

Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi, and Chuck Schumer control the WH and Congress - THEY HAVE THE NUMBERS TO PASS ANY LEGISLATION THEY WANT. PASS THE F*ING BILLS ALREADY!

OH YEAH, THEIR OWN PARTY MEMBERS ARE F*ING THEM......YET THEY ARE TRYING TO BLAME THE GOP!
