House Democrats want to negotiate a $2 TRILLION spending increase but can’t even pass their own plan. We can’t afford it anyway, and it’s not happening!

If you said DC I would agree with you but Presidents do not have the power to budget like some dictator as spending is done by Congress.

Read the Constitution some time.

And as most know Trump has never been a deficit hawk.

Under Obama, the national debt grew 87.7%. Since Trump took office, the National debt ha grown 10%.

However, I typically don’t put sole blame on a president. After all, it’s Congress who originates a budget.

That's actully a typical referral on here. It gets a lot worse right before they say it has nothing to do with his race.

I'd love to see the math. I'll wait here. Do the average national debt from Jan 2009 to Jan 2017 for Obama and then do from inauguration to today for Trump. It is basic math so no problem for you. Hurry along now.

it is basic math yet nobody wants to do it. I have done it and showed it on here. So let's see you perform basic math and show me which president is pacing the quickest on national debt. Come on now it is super simple. Should take you no time at all.

The last 2 budgets fall on the fake conservatives Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnel. They could have given Trump wall funding, but did not. They lied to Trump and said they would pass it in the lame duck session. They did nothing

80% over 8 years is 10% a year.

That's cool. If it is all the same how bout we use real numbers. show me Obama's annual addition to the debt and then show me Trump's. I don't want the off the cuff numbers. Let's go with the actual tracked dollars to the national debt. Go ahead and do debt to GDP as well for both. I'll be here waiting.

I'll try the math myself. show me national debt on Jan 2009- Jan 2017 and today. Next post of yours should be 3 amounts. You can round if you would like. we will do this math together. provide the link as well.
