Trump's deficit spending? So his only choices are to shut down the government or sign the bills that come through congress and you blame Trump? A president does not create spending bills. Your knowledge of how government works is limited. Have you ever heard of Pelosi?


Why does MAGA believe Joes or Obamas economics were bad. They're are the same.

How about unchaining and unleashing the economy instead.


Tariffs work opposite of that purpose.

Some people got left behind. I get it. Some people believe theyre owed a certain lifestyle and dont have to improve skills or education, the govt should ensure it.


I also get that its backward and holds the economy back. Populists are angry that thoroughbreds ran faster than they did, and want the govt to rig the game more in their favor.

That's how spending bills are negotiated in modern times. The President, House, and Senate all negotiate prior to putting it to a vote.

Like Pelosi ever allowed any debate on her Continuing resolution over spending.




Ha ha ha ha too funny, first I was talking about her CR never ending, second negotiation is a joke with Pelosi. Your floated link didn't fly. Nasty Nancy said no.

Pelosi says no to 1.8 trillion spending bill.

Instead of rigging the game for those who can pay the taxes? The rich can afford the taxes but average people starting a business are screwed from the beginning since they have to borrow money to start with.

Drill baby drill. Using domestic production to meet America's needs first. This would reduce inflation some immediately and put hundreds of thousands of people to work in good paying jobs. Reducing the deficit is easier than reducing the debt which currently grows at 1 trillion borrowed dollars every 100 days. I think the debt is out of control, has reached the point of no return. Reducing the deficit will make things slightly better but the debt being 9 times total tax revenue with interest costing more than military spending I don't see a way out. Import taxes for a start.
