Thomas Massie does but he will vote against his party give leverage to the dims so they can spend more money, moron... I agree most of DC does not care or believe's it matters... Problems is we have to cut defense spending and neither party wants to do that, because both parties want to shape how the world operates.. One day, our time will come, hopefully the next generation is stronger enough to handle it..

Trump does. He’s leading us through the dark times that were the illegitimate presidency of Joe Biden. Trump has us right back on track with a red hot economy.

About 80-90 percent of people probably don’t give a rats arse about it as long as they can turn tv on in their ac controlled environment while eating the junk food of their choice and chugging that beer

Trump likes spending money where it makes sense. Every single decision he’s made regarding the economy so far has been the correct one.

Do you actually care? Does anyone actually care these days? Has the US ever had a year where national debt decreased? The number is so unfathomable you may as well say we’re a gazillion in debt. I’m of the opinion it really no longer matters to either side of the isle.

our dept to GDP is 120% japan's debt to GDP is 300%, china's is 400% it's time we reintroduce the middle class welfare queen's back to the concept of paying income taxes, that'd be OK wouldn't it?

Remeber those whacking off about June’s surplus thinking that something had been accomplished? Well, July’s numbers came in and we ran a budget deficit of $291 billion.

So far our budget deficit for the year is about $1.62 trillion.

But I’m sure it will be fixed by tariffs and muh rescissions.

Is that why he’s continually begging the fed for more monetary stimulus?

Sad thing is that it's going to take a few administrations of really trying to attack that deficit for it to make enough of a difference.

We are in a no-win situation, and the Government knows it. They’ve done the math, and only way to deter an economic collapse is to grow our way out, and why they keep stimulating and buying time….Neither side is willing to have it happen during their time, and why we are here….
