Deficit is the responsibility of all of them...But if the Cheeto vetoed the budget and "shut the gubmint down", then hand-wringing little chumps like you would be sniveling about the cheeeellllldrrrreeennnnn or other such nonsense.I don't have a team, Corky.....I dropped out years ago.And your team does exactly the same thing, hack.'Another month, another frightening jump in the US budget deficit. And this time it was a record.
According to the latest Treasury data, the US budget surplus in February - traditionally the worst month of the year due to tax refunds - was a whopping $234 billion, missing the $227 billion deficit expected, and well worse than the $214 billion deficit recorded last February. And even though there may have been one-time tax refund and government shutdown factors at play, the February deficit was also the biggest budget deficit on record.'

This means Trump's government is on pace for a $1.3 TRILLION deficit.
This is absolutely ridiculous....especially considering this is during - what Trump calls - the 'greatest economy ever'.
Republicans only care when Democrats do it.
Does that make 'your team' doing it right?
Yes or no?
Riiiiight.
Anyway...
once again, is this deficit the responsibility of Trump - yes or no?
As for me, I gave up any hope that any of them would be fiscally responsible starting with GHWB.
