Trump and the deficit

[Astrostar]

Donald Trump Built a National Debt So Big (Even Before the Pandemic) That It’ll Weigh Down the Economy for Years

The “King of Debt” promised to reduce the national debt — then his tax cuts made it surge. Add in the pandemic, and he oversaw the third-biggest deficit increase of any president.

The real architect is Donald Trump with the third largest deficit increase in history, behind only Abraham Lincoln and Dubya. And, he wants to get back into office so he can add some more to it! Bigly!!!

Covid impacted it greatly. though I agree, he didn't stick to his guns and decrease the debt prior to covid. If he had, he would have been in a great spot heading into 2020.

Well, he did contribute to it, did he not?

Again, are Lefties really this stupid? (A). Taxing and spending are done by Congress, not the President, (B) Democrat over-spending on the Pandemic led to the massive deficits that you attribute to Trump.

Really that stupid, or do you foolishly think that anyone reading your stupid OP will be convinced that these deficits were caused by Trump?

No good choice here.

As did Biden/Obama/Dubya/Clinton/H.W./Reagan, etc..

Trump isn't the president. Biden is.

Next dumb-ass post.

Now why would they leave Obama off the list?

Who signs those bills again?

Yes, it IS a group effort, not just one person and usually not just one party.

They only say that because it tends to be correct.

Only people who failed Civics 101 thinks that the President has sole control over deficits. Fiscal irresponsibility it truly bipartisan.
