Mitch McConnel and John Thune wash hands of Trump deficits

[bendog]

“I’m very concerned about it. Particularly on the entitlement side, the mandatory spending side, which is where most of the money is. And that’s something that the president has not had a particular interest in doing anything about,” acknowledged Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.), the party whip. “We’re going to end up spending more than a lot of Republicans, I’m sure, would like. But that’s what it’s going to take to get a deal.”

Rebuilding our nation from the destruction by Obama is going to be expensive....there is nothing more costly to a nation than liberal socialist leaders....Socialism comes with a price tag libs...when it fails which it always does there is a mess to clean up after....that clean up is costly.....but keep calm we are bringing in record number of dollars into the treasury each day.....wait until California wakes up and boots out the progs...then the clean up will begin and it will bankrupt the state....

We've been running debt for 225 of our 243 years.

If you owe on a $300,000 house, you don't worry about it if you're making $250,000 per year.

The debt is approximately 21 trillion. GDP is 19 trillion per year. Relax.

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Simply amazing how the same people howled at the moon about debt and spending for 8 years straight now think it is the best thing since sliced bread.

And the day their god leaves the White House it will matter yet once again.

Unless you also owe $50,000 on a car and $75,000 in credit card debt and $5,000 for your new furniture and $30,000 for the second car and...

"bowled at the moon"

Must be very interesting lane dressing.

Making America Great Again will be expensive....so please America...no more anti American socialists.....

 

[LaDairis]

We’re going to end up spending more than

....

any sane patriotic American would accept.

Then again, who in control of spending has ANY patriotism to the US?

Certainly not McConnell, Schumer, Pelosi, Paul Ryan, McCarthy etc....


Once upon a time we had a budget surplus and a $5 trillion Federal debt.

Then W got elected....

 

[jc456]

the old blame the guy behind the curtain ploy!!! all they have to do is provide a fiscally agreed on bill and send it to trump, if he vetoes said bill, then they get to play that card, but sorry, I've smelled shit and vomit that smells better than that.

 

[Terri4Trump]

Uh... err.... Trump has been in Washington how long? McConnell and Thune have been spending up the debt and been in Washington how long?

And who is allowed to actually spend money, the President or the Congress?

Helloooooooooo

never had a surplus, never.

 

[LaDairis]

never had a surplus, never.

The difference between what Gingrich and Clinton put on the tab vs. what has happened since is silly.

You can argue whether accrued liability etc. matters, and it does.

But we are talking literally about the difference in size of a STAR and a FIG LEAF.

Hopefully you now understand the difference...

Republican deficits = What deficits??

They understand. They are just dishonest partisans

If they believe in the Book of Revelation, they may not understand....

Revelation 6:13 and the stars of the sky fell to the earth like unripe figs dropping from a tree shaken by a great wind.


nd the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind.

New Living Translation
Then the stars of the sky fell to the earth like green figs falling from a tree shaken by a strong wind.

English Standard Version
and the stars of the sky fell to the earth as the fig tree sheds its winter fruit when shaken by a gale.

Berean Study Bible
and the stars of the sky fell to the earth like unripe figs dropping from a tree shaken by a great wind




According to gahhhhwdddd via an angel and John, stars and fig leaves ARE THE SAME SIZE....
