Kind of like saying Richard Speck was a good guy compared to Ted Bundy because Bundy killed more women. It's an asinine statement. A $460Bn deficit is not a good thing. To the contrary, in the face of record revenues, it is horrendous.

No, everyone has argued that claiming that the current deficit is not bad because it isn't as bad as it could ever be is a completely idiotic argument.
