Comes The New Administration Will This Message Board Even Have Democrats Anymore?

Hector, your timeline for balancing the budget is correct, but your assumption of why they were able to is in error.

The ability to balance the budget was called "the peace dividend!" Because Reagan increased the budget for the military, created the phony star wars program, which basically put the USSR out of business as they headed towards glasnost and diversification, military spending fell dramatically as we were the sole world super power. The peace dividend was real, and of course congress spent it faster than it came in, lol. I am hoping that the new DOGE program fixes all that, but I won't hold my breath!
Because the United States was at peace during the Reagan administration it was unnecessary to raise military spending then. Military spending should have been reduced.
 
Oh, look. Another hoax-parroting tard.

Reagan: 525 to 13. 54,455,075 to 37,577,185. 58.8% of the popular vote.

Richard Nixon: 520 to 17. 46,740,323 to 28,901,598 60.7% of the popular vote.

LBJ: 486 to 52. 42,825,463 to 27,146,969. 61.1% of the popular vote.

Now you know what a real landslide looks like.

Trump doesn't even make the top 10.


Then why don't you post Trump's numbers to gloat about it hmmm?
