Lol post a debt graph, not a spending graph...

...and inadvertently make my point.

Trumps's spending, and the resultant increase in debt because our government ALWAYS spends more than it takes in, is the EXACT SAME TRAJECTORY from your 2009 beginning....

... until, Covid! Lol it says it right there in your graph.

Theyre related.

quote:

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump proposed a record $4.7 trillion budget on Monday, pushing the federal deficit past $1 trillion but counting on optimistic growth, accounting shuffles and steep domestic cuts to bring future spending into balance in 15 years.

quote:

The budget calls the approach “MAGAnomics,” after the president’s “Make America Great Again” campaign slogan.

Some fiscal watchdogs, though, panned the effort as more piling on of debt by Trump with no course correction in sight.

Maya MacGuineas, president of the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget, said Trump “relies on far too many accounting gimmicks and fantasy assumptions and puts forward far too few actual solutions.

This is because Obama was already spending at elevated levels. Trump just continued Obama's level of spending which is not good enough. We are supposed to be the fiscally responsible party.
