The U.S. deficit hit $984 billion in 2019, soaring during Trump era Spending increases, tax cuts, and political apathy fueled surge, and interest payments now near $400 billion

The country’s worsening fiscal picture runs in sharp contrast to President Trump’s campaign promise to eliminate the federal debt within eight years.

Promises made, promises kept. Oh wait...

Nice crocodile tears as always.

Where were you on this issue prior to Jan '17? That's what I thought.

I was opposing tax cuts and happy to see modest tax increases enacted. Thanks for asking.

They do. And back before (R) stood for Retard, the GOP understood that raising revenues is also a tool for reducing deficits.

I’m not going to put my shoulder to the wheel by myself, blob. That’s a vain act.

And nothing is stopping you from turning down your tax cut if you’re concerned about deficits.

Corporate welfare is high on the rights list of priorities.

SFGbob

Typical liberal, isn’t willing to do what you’re demanding from everyone else.

Cut spending, I’d be happy to point out areas of the budget where we could cut billions.

I can’t achieve my policy goals on my own but you can achieve yours. You can write a bigger check to the government today but you won’t because you’re a hypocrite.

Cite for me the corporate welfare I as a conservative support.

California has a balanced budget and just had its credit rating upgraded to Aa2 by Moody’s. The fiscally responsible policy makers in Sacramento once again accomplishing something at which trump is a miserable failure. Nothing new.

Revenues are up thanks to the tax cuts

Don't blame me. Instead feel free to fuck off

Revenues are never down in a growing economy. That’s true under any tax regimen we’ve ever had.

You’d have a fabulous point if my only policy prescription was to raise my own taxes.
