So Carter didn't suck it was the Speaker and Senate Majority leader? It wasn't Reagan who rocked it was his Congress? Bush didn't suck it was his Congress? Bill sucked it was all Newt? Bush didn't lie us into Iraq and squander Clinton's surplus with tax breaks?

Trump didn't pay historic tax breaks we can't afford?

Biden passed a great infrastructure bill. You are right. The Republicans need to make Amazon pay their fair share of taxes. They tear up our roads the most.

/----/ You are absolutely correct. No president can control spending. Reagan wanted the line item veto like so many governors have, but the liberal USSC smacked it down

/----/ Only Congress can spend the money. The president can only make recommendations.
Are you new to Civics?

How much money is spent without the signature of approval from the POTUS?

So I'm wrong, 2 Republicans who at the time weren't drinking Trump's coolaid are wrong and Bill Maher are all wrong.

So Trump didn't add what Ron said he added to the debt? And the stimulus' didn't start with Trump insisting his name be on the checks? Okay, weirdo

You spelt Kool-Aid wrong.....How can I take someone seriously that can't even spell Kool-Aid correctly?

Other than maybe a few "can't miss" bargains the other good thing about these dips is your money is now able to buy more shares, so when the market comes back you are even better off.

This is true if you have some of your investments in a money market, you can access cash. It made a lot of people a lot of money during Covid, there were bargains galore.
