Funny how you don’t share the link for your cbs interview off your simple google search.
If you don’t think Elon wasn’t pissed about losing 1.2 billion in consumer tax credits for EV/Tesla, 2 billion in regulatory credits lost, and another 3+ billion in profit/revenue losses, you’re just dumb. The fallout happened exactly after that where gas and oil kept the cuts. It was also after the 100 days he was authorized and not privy to government access. Thats why he threw Trump under the bus like a child saying he was in the Epstein files.

You are aware the vast majority of the debts you are referencing aren’t new spending increases from Trump? Some are but most of that debt was baked into the cake long ago. The interest on the debt alone is 1 trillion per year so even if the next President didn’t spend a single new dollar on spending increases the debt would still increase. It feels like you think that Trump spent 11.5 trillion dollars above and beyond the current budget
They know. They just don't want to hear it. It's all so-called entitlements: SS, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP and so on and so on. It's all on auto pilot just snowballing as time goes on. Now it's compounded by tens of millions of third-world illegals who have been added to the government teat. Don't believe me? Just look at a pie chart of government spending.

Of the $40 trillion in national, Trump is responsible for $11.5 of it or 29% of our debt.
This isn’t accurate. Interest carry is compounding every year, and there are discretionary and non-discretionary items.
He’s responsible for some of it, but not all of it.

Have no fear! Stop being a panican! The rescission bills are coming soon! Now that Thomas Massie is gone, Trump will no longer be blocked in Congress by members pushing higher and higher spending. Trust Trump!

You telling someone they’re a simp is ironic. The fact you won’t agree that Trump is partly responsible for this debt makes you a simp.

You run a company and lose over 3 billion in guarantees and see how hot your arse is. Again you have no concept of reality.

Nicely done.

Spending is a key component keeping the economy afloat.
Cut it and you will be the cause of the crash.

Biden added 9 trillion to the debt.
They also kept money in reserve, spent it under Biden, and blamed it in Trump.
So yeah...

Trump cannot do it - it takes both parties in congress willing to BOTH increase revenue and cut spending at the same time - cutting spending means entitlement programs which is 70% of the budget - nobody will take the political risk and touch entitlement programs

So in 2 yrs Trump and GOP have increased the debt by $4.5 trillion.
Trump himself is responsible for adding this much to the debt in 2 years?
There is nothing else to talk about? No other context to add at all?
