Things that made you smile today (Political Version)

[Suppressed Poet]

Democrats have never found a dollar they couldn’t spend or a tax they didn’t like.

2019: We spent 4.45 trillion
2022: We spent 6.27 trillion

PB and Seran are considering changes in debt from different perspectives. The report cited by Seran is based on debt signed into law by each President, even if the actual borrowing will not take place until after the president's term. PB is looking at actual spending during a president's term, even if a prior president signed the law that required the spending. During the presidency of Nixon, Presidents lost the power to refuse to spend money previously appropriated by Congress, including appropriations during the term of a prior president. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Impoun...opriated_funds That loss of power was a consequence of having a president embroiled in scandal.


As shown in the below chart taken from the report, the deficit and debt increased much more because of Trump than because of Biden, both with and without considering additional spending related to COVID. Expect more of the same if Trump is reelected.

Ha. Let me guess: He blamed white jews for his loss?

Let's not forget this is the guy that pulled the fire alarm in Congress. Glad the NY voters pulled together and took out the trash.

So.. if we're talking about Trump, we need to talk about all the money he has spent during his term and any other money that was approved into the future... but when we're talking about Biden, we're only to talk about the money he spent during his term.

AAAAAAAND factor in their shady math that "offsets" much of the upfront cost due to "projected" future gains and savings. Yup, that's how those numbers are doctored up.

Awfully kind of you to explain it as simply as you did, but as expected the fact you didn't dumb it down to an middle school level has confused the resident Conservatives. One has to wonder if Republicans are really dumb enough to think they won't be held responsible for enacting laws with massive fiscal repercussions for the country.

Trump's record breaking 8.4 trillion dollar debt splurge will mire our country in mounting national debt expenses for generations, yet they're proud of the being the fiscally irresponsible party.
