Government deficit rose 4% in Trump’s first full month in office, despite DOGE. UBS says the U.S. is slashing confidence, not spending

[Zafira Cherry]

Didn't they promise to cut the deficit? What is DOGE doing? Doesn't make sense to me. All we hear is "we are saving money", "we cut waste"

Just like a fully loaded train can't stop on a dime, fixing decades of government bloat and spending addiction will not happen in a month.

Most people realize that, so keep up with this one week/one month look ahead mentality, it makes you look as stupid as you are.

they are lying to YOU marty... they are going to git rich of this scheme and you are going to take in the "ass" as usual...

 

[TNHarley]

Amazing how people just expect these guys to do everything in two months. Like, just chill the fuck out bro. Good grief.
Whats even weirder is, if they were doing more than they are now, these SAME PEOPLE would be screaming that they are doing too much too fast.
Its, just like with EVERYTHING partisan, is completely disingenuous.

Ok there, Comrade.

Why don't you add terms like paper tiger, dustheap of history, and "plutocracy" to your useless response to really get those Marxist checkmarks taken care of?

"we are saving money", "we cut waste"

Absolutely correct .
Great deficit result which could have been double figures without the foresight and brilliance of DOGE .

What a great start .

Trump is still pushing to eliminate the Debt limit. That doesn't jive with reducing debt...

So?

Again, this is going to take time to fix.

Comrade

Funny you mention that, because the economist saying this stuff is.... a big govt woke statist. He believes the economy is better handled through equity instead of math.
This OP is complete junk.

numbers do not lie... the deficit is rising

 

[TNHarley]

numbers do not lie... the deficit is rising

And what do you think is causing that?
Are you dumb enough to think we cant save money in some areas, while other areas increase in cost? I dont think you are, just want to bash the orange man and elon.

 

[Marener]

DOGE is making a lot of noise for what amounts to chicken feed on the scale of the federal government.

It’s narrative making.

That way when they cut taxes by huge amounts, people won’t think that they’re blowing up the deficits.

Again thinking this is a movie where everything is resolved in 2 hours.

This article covers the current Dem problem

Democrats Can't Think Beyond a Week, And It is Killing Them

Of course, that is economics, and Democrats don't understand economics any more than they do any other practical thing. They understand bitching, moaning, lying, and grifting. In other words, politics and government, with a bit of cultural dominance to add to the mix. And I have to say the left used to be good at cultural production, creating some great art, but even there they are lazy grifters now waiting for government DEI grants or something.

If budgets mattered, Musk wouldn’t be able to say he’s cutting spending.

Democrats know this. They aren't stupid.

Democrats are maliciously gaslighting Americans.

Once you realize democrats are traitors working to intentionally collapse America, suddenly everything they support and do will make sense and you won't think they are dumb anymore.
