Trump is the Reason the Deficit is so Bad

You don't seem to understand the whole point of the thread.

Nobody is questioning Biden's current deficit.
The point is the current deficit has been made substantially worse because of the failure of Trump.
Sure... Go after Trump for the Trillion dollar bullshit he did... I'm good with that. Just don't be a hypocrite and then not go after Biden who is exponentially expanding on it. Come on man... Spending that much money was stupid, so ... Lets do it again?
On top of that Trump never had a great economy as he never achieved 3% growth annually, then Trump misplayed covid badly and passed off a bankrupt country to Biden.

You are the typical, defend the Republicans for their insane mega failures (which are substantially worse than any failures of Obama or Biden) and then overly criticize the dems for their mistakes. All the while claiming to be an independent, which you are not if you can't recognize that Trump and Bush fucked up a lot more than Obama/Biden.
No... I disagreed with everything past the first round of stimulus. It would be better for you to ask rather than claim my positions.

On what? He is for taxing the Rich and upgrading infrastructure, along with healthcare reform.

Really? Does the tax pay for everything?

Not even close, but “Tax the Rich” makes for a really catchy slogan.

On the bright side, it does begin to address our chronic shortage of meaningless, partisan slogans, after all the bumper sticker industry needs some stimulus too.;)
 
The DemonRAT Party Politicians lacking the “rudimentary glimmers of reason” is the reason why political worms mistake Trump supporters for a cult or “outrage peddlers.” Far from it. We were just starving to death for common sense solutions to deep problems that put us on a road to national suicide
Besides constant bitching about an election, the Qult party has done precisely dick to provide "common sense solutions to deep problems' in our society. You celebrate doing nothing? Great plan.
 
You’re right, the Trump Administration and his merry band of Republicans spent like drunken sailors, no doubt about it, the numbers don’t lie.

The question is, now the Democrats are in charge and have the wherewithal to do something about it, should they start cutting spending and earnestly attempt to balance the budget? Or do they, as appears to be the case so far, just follow Donny’s lead and increase the deficit EVEN MORE?
Why should Democrats always have to clean up Republican messes?

So... It was bad that Trump did it... So... Do it more because you don't want to do what Trump should have done.

Nice avatar... Fits.

They don’t “clean up them” they just come along and make them worse, it’s like its a race to see which party can get us to the point of economic Armageddon the quickest.

The secret service must kill him. And the ho.

You mean like lowering the unemployment to the lowest in modern times, and NOT getting involved in war for 4 years under President Trump?....My the lefty loons are at lying and bullshit again!
 
In 2016 Obama had ~ $550B annual Deficit.
Trump took over and ran that up to $1.1 Trillion/year in 2020 before covid. Doubling the annual deficit. Then Trump fucked up everything Covid on an epic scale and the US need to spend/waste Trillions of dollars just so its people can survive.
The entire situation was exacerbated by Trump's failed covid response, resulting in hundreds of thousands of needless deaths, and Trillions in wasted stimulus.

When Trump took over he immediately ramped up spending BIG TIME and passed huge tax cuts that greatly added to the deficit, BUT gave little economic benefit. This gave the economy a small pop, but Trump never achieved 3% annual growth and GDP was barely better than Obama. The Trump economy was barely better than the Obama economy and the numbers prove this.
FACTS:

George W Bush inherited a balanced budget with a projected surpluss and turned that into total doom with mega deficits. Trump inherited an ~$550B annual deficit and turned that into absolute bankruptcy. Trump ran ~$3.5 Trillion annual deficit in 2020.


Biden is spending a lot, BUT Trump completely bankrupted America beyond anything we have ever seen before (even worse than Bush).

Oh, but Biden spending $3 trillion so far and spending an additional $3 trillion doesn't matter?

You're a fucking moron.

Media fed liar.
A real trumpian level response right there.

I hit you with facts and links with accurate sources, totally crushing anything you have to say.

You are over matched and overwhelmed, your only response in to blame the media.

It's not the media's fault Trump bankrupted the country with his wild spending bills, Trump did that...

You liars never have facts, you have what your lying media feeds you.
The facts the OP presented are sound, it’s clear the Trump Administration over estimated the fiscal stimulus effects that the Tax Reform package would provide, along with initiating new spending that wasn’t warranted and NOT taking contingencies into account (like, for example a massive downturn caused by A GLOBAL PANDEMIC).

The numbers are what they are, arguing against them is silly, the only relevant question is CAN THE DEMOCRATS DO ANY BETTER? The ball is in their court, so far they appear not only to be dropping it but they also appear to be letting the air out of the ball for good measure.
They have already done far worse. They voted for both stimulus bills, and Biden wants to go one a spending spree.
 
This "Banker" guy doesn't know how money works and surely he doesn't know how federal debt works. To him, like all PROGS they only see the surface of things. These are the types of people who think quarterbacks win super bowls by themselves.

If the "Banker" had a clue & operable brain he'd know our debt conditions improved on Trump's watch until COVID was exploited by his Demonicrats.

Check it out Banker: Is this close to summarizing history of state of affairs since Reagan?

Worth mentioning the idiot doesn't know how govt. works either. Ever heard of Congress? Do you know what Congress does? Fuck no. Was Trump in Congress? Fuck no.

Does Banker know money? Fuck no.
 
You mean like lowering the unemployment to the lowest in modern times
What makes you believe the Qult45 party had anything to do with it? Because you were told as much, and lack any critical thinking skills to question it. And why are you touting pre-pandemic stats when it all went to shit post-pandemic? The Qult45 party's contribution to improving societal problems has had all the impact of a wet fart. Any other partisan hackery you'd like me to crush?

Shitforbrains, Congress is responsible for the creation of the budget. Obama had a better budget because guess what - Republicans controlled Congress.

I agree with that, but when you look at the 21st century, The huge push Bush and the GOP made to go to war in Iraq, the great financial crisis, in which Bush is most responsible because he was president for 7 years when it happened, then Trump's poor economic policies and his failure at covid. The GOP has done serious damage to America, far worse than anything the Dems have done.
One parties extreme failure does not excuse the others simple failure, but it definitely means that the party of extreme failure, the GOP, should not have influence on policy until they can show they have some form of competence. The dems are the party of less bad.
Obama was not good, and he should have emphasized the economic recovery a lot more, but he certainly was not as bad as Bush or Trump. If you look at the numbers and the results from an impartial view, it is pretty obvious.

Trump was a fiscal disaster.
And those are the unequivocal facts.
