Trump to hit the campaign trail for 30 days

Voting for anyone other than trumps 2 trillion dollar deficit minions.

That is what I voted for. Everyone knew he would get out the vote and it is scaring the TDS crowd to death. They will be fetal by Election Day.

This is scaring the poll workers too. No one wants a Fed charge!!

Are you finding these financially responsible belt tighteners in the Democrat party?

Deficits were lower under sleepy joe. Think about that, Joe Biden's corrupt dumbass had LOWER deficits than we have now under Donald Trump.


Who was it that ran on lowering the deficit?

With sub 30% approval rate for Trump he might just wanna stay put

Here’s a breakdown by ChatGPT of the increase in spending from 2023 to 2024:

But here’s where the big jump actually occurred

Federal outlays went from $6.135 trillion in 2023 to $6.752 trillion in 2024 — an increase of $617 billion, or 10.1%.

The largest contributors were:

1. Interest on the national debt: +$239 billion

Interest expense jumped 34%, reaching approximately $949 billion. CBO says the principal reason was significantly higher interest rates.

2. Social Security: +$106 billion

Social Security spending increased about 8%, primarily because of higher average benefits, including COLAs, and an increase in the number of beneficiaries.

3. Medicare: +$78 billion

Medicare increased about 9%, driven by increased enrollment and higher payment rates for medical services.

4. Defense: +$56 billion

Defense spending increased about 7%, with CBO identifying research and development and operations and maintenance as major areas of increase.

5. Veterans Affairs: +$41 billion

VA spending increased about 14%, primarily from increased spending per person and greater use of VA health-care facilities.

One very unusual item: Education

There’s an important accounting issue here.

Education spending appeared to increase by $309 billion in 2024, but that does not mean the federal government suddenly spent $309 billion more on schools or education programs.

The increase largely resulted from the federal government’s accounting for student-loan cancellation. In 2023, the government recorded a $330 billion reduction in Education outlays following the Supreme Court’s decision blocking the cancellation plan. In 2024, that accounting effect reversed.

CBO therefore says that excluding that student-loan accounting effect and certain timing shifts, the 2024 increase in total outlays would have been about $373 billion rather than $617 billion.

I agree with you that spending is a problem. A BIG problem.

But which party is more likely to:

1) Fix Social Security and Medicaid (reduce spending)?
2) Keep interest rates lower? (An admittedly multi-variant issue)?
3) Lower the federal burden of unpaid school loans?

1. Neither party is interested in fixing social security and medicaid. Our leaders are cowards that are only concerned about staying in power.

2. Interest rates - Trump "says" he wants interest rates to be lower but things like the Iran war have spooked bond investors and our interest rates have increased because of his own policies.

The government needs to get out of this game completely. We have a real need for an educated populace. We don't have a need for people getting into massive amounts of debt attending private universities that will saddle them with debt the rest of their lives. The University systems are all complicit in this problem.

Laughing at all the knuckleheads who celebrated the Iran war, Massie’s loss, spiked the football and thought giving a middle finger to young voters who swung Trump’s way would have no consequences.

Right. The stupidity is so alarming that a Texas senate seat is now up for grabs. This is a political failure of the highest order.

MAGA has always been scorched earth on dissenters

The similarities between MAGA and blue hairs on this one is impressive.

The tactics are identical. Immediately equate slight differences to mean being a card carrying member of the loony brigade at the opposite end of the spectrum.

Anyway I hope there is some solid strategy behind where Trump is going to campaign. Some districts may be a positive for him to visit and some may be a negative depending on the district and the opponent. If there are R candidates that need to place some distance between themselves and Trump, let them.

If true, why are you not encouraging me and so many others like me, who really appreciate the great work he has done, to get the word out to everyone offering even more encouragement for POTUS Trump to hit the campaign trail for 30 days?

You're simply not making sense.

But I have heard he is also looking for his very own mountain to protect due to the tremendous project that will soon be undertaken. It will be called Mt. Trump and the entire mountain will be carved into his image from the chest up.

Letlow and Paxton beg to differ. Check out his endorsement’s winning record so far this year.
