    Trump is a fiscal conservative in the Reagan mold. Reducing deficits isn't what fiscal conservatism is about.

    HTH

    Reagan did actually care about deficits and when he saw too much red ink as a result of his tax cuts and increased defense spending, he did enact changes to the tax code to "broaden the base" and increase revenues. "Read my lips" Bush 41 raised revenue as well and it didn't hurt the economy.

    People forget Clinton raised taxes so much he lost control of Congress. And the economy flourished.
    It didn't "flourish" until welfare reform, a reduction in capital gains taxes, an increase in the death tax exemption, and a flurry of business de-regulation. These things happened after he got his ass handed to him in the 1994 mid-terms. And why did he get his ass kicked in the 1994 mid-terms? HillaryCare and tax increases, along with some other incredibly libtarded positions that pissed a lot of people off.
