The Inconvenient Truth About The Economy: Democrats Do It Better

[Toddsterpatriot]

And we came close to actually balancing the budget. Since then it's been failure after failure after failure.

It's true, Gingrich did a great job shrinking government spending.

The government worked together and came close. Now they work together to bury us further and further in debt.

Clinton signed what Newt wrote.

Trump hascut the annual deficit from 2.6 trillion to 1.7 trillion in just one year. Thats a great start. Before the end of is term it will be zero and then we can start reducing the national debt.
Note Democrats oppose any attempt to cut spending or the debt

2% less than 2024. A failure. Trumps first go round was $7.8 trillion. Biden was $8 trillion. Failures the both.

Wasting hundreds of billions on more expensive, less reliable "green" energy makes things more expensive.

Except Trump cancelled most of Biden's "green energy".

 

[postman]

Except Trump cancelled or reversed Biden's green energy

Stupid projects that were built under Biden will be making rates go up for decades.

Program Eliminations: Initiatives like the $7 billion "Solar for All" program have been canceled.

Good. I'm tired of getting sales calls in Chicago to install "free" solar.

Regulatory Rollbacks: Major climate-focused executive orders from 2021 have been revoked.

Excellent! Forcing power companies to be net-zero is stupidity only leftards could support.

As you pointed out, Trump got rid of most of Biden's "green energy"

Now under Trump energy, electric prices are going up at a high rate.

 

[postman]

Clinton signed what Newt wrote.

Guess again. That's why there was a government shutdown.
Which the public blamed on the republicans.
Clinton got his budget without republican support.

It is a very inconvenient truth for the GOP, that since WW2, the economy has performed significantly better under Democrats than Republicans. The exact reasons are debated, but the numbers are the numbers.

• Economic growth, job creation, and stock-market performance have historically been stronger, on average, during Democratic presidencies.
• Every Republican president over roughly the last 50 years has experienced a recession during their term.
• The overwhelming majority of net job creation over the past half-century occurred under Democratic presidents.
• Deficits widen during Republican administrations and narrow during Democratic ones (often after Democrats inherited large deficits).

Vote with your pocket book next election folks.

New report finds that the economy performs better under Democratic presidential administrations

For well over a decade economists and other social scientists have documented a strong advantage in economic performance during Democratic administrations. A new Economic Policy Institute report updates this work to the latest data available and confirms that this Democratic advantage persists...

The U.S. Economy Performs Better Under Democratic Presidents - The U.S. Economy Performs Better Under Democratic Presidents - United States Joint Economic Committee

www.jec.senate.gov

The U.S. economy has performed much better under Democratic presidents than Republican presidents in the modern era. In almost every measure of the U.S. economy including total job growth, unemployment, economic growth, manufacturing job growth, manufacturing investment, small business creation, and contribution to the national debt, economic performance is stronger under Democrats. While there are many factors contributing to these trends, the throughline is clear that Democratic administrations consistently help the U.S. economy perform better than Republican administrations.

Now do a list of recessions during Dimwinger controlled Congress vs Republican.

Ya know, the people who hold the purse strings.

Plenty of green idiocy was built before 2025.

It was brought about by the Balanced Budget Act.

Balanced Budget Act of 1997 - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

A bipartisan act that lead to both cuts AND tax increases.

Now under Trump energy, electric prices are going up at a high rate.

Stopping future green projects is a great idea and will save hundreds of billions.

Ending stupid green mandates at the state level is also needed, but if California and Massachusetts
want to eliminate CO2 and make their citizens pay more for electricity, Trump can't help them.

That wasn't a balanced budget.

That wasn't a balanced budget.

It was as close as we have come since then. It was at least going in the right direction with the correct actions. Cuts and increased taxes.

The January 1996 shutdown did not result in a balanced budget. Sorry.

Keep trying. You might get there.

Feel free to show the balanced budget in 1996.

Or run away.

We were discussing when the budget was nearly balanced. Distract all you want from that.
