It's kind of endearing that you don't understand any ATTEMPT at it was blocked. That 4.5 trillion cut the last time would have PAID FOR a lot of things. The soon to be new tax cuts for the wealthy would PAY FOR a lot of things for everyday Americans.
True, but under Obama the expiring of the Bush tax cuts was more responsible for deficit reduction. Obama really ****ed up healthcare.
How does proposing a budget blow a hole in your budget? Do you ever re-read what you write? You do know, this would be the first budget from Congress in about 15 years, right?I thought that DOGE was supposed to pay for this crap? Rs grifting our asses.
Senate adopts $340 billion budget blueprint for Trump's agenda after marathon 'vote-a-rama'
The 52-48 overnight vote puts pressure on the GOP-controlled House, which plans to take up its own competing budget resolution next week.www.nbcnews.com
Clinton had an R house and senate from 1995 till the end of his presidency.
It's $340 billion. In new spending. Our deficits are already sky high and this will make them even worse. It's like you're doing everything you can to avoid reality.
I haven't seen any DEMS trying to pull this shit, and neither have you maggot.
D’s the House and Senate and executive Biden’s first 2 years. How’d those “paid fors” work?
I'll give Trump a pass on 2020 due to COVID and I will say the same for Biden... the years after COVID were a nice balancing act. People didn't like it due to inflation, but everyone thought a recession was coming and it didn't. Now, if Trump does what he did his first few years now that recession could very well hit as I don't think we are out of the weeds on the inflation/recession risk. Costs are going back up which is the opposite of what he campaigned on.... and to make matters worse he's creating higher unemployment and give lenders heartburn and fear with his actions.
The $250M wasn't a donation, it was an investment in his grift. Tesla isn't going to be a leader in electric cars any longer and Musk knows this and why he asked for an unprecedented $65B compensation from the company. The Tesla stock is and will continue to become garbage as China floods the market with better built and cheaper electric vehicles. He's a grifter and has always been one.
Unfortunately the average cost of goods went up 30% during Biden’s 4 years. That was unsustainable.
Especially on this board.
Raising tax rates produces less tax revenue than increasing GDP. Raising tax rates on the "rich" will never produce enough revenue to offset increases in spending.
Define “way more”. I think they’re both disingenuous on the subject.
Biden did nothing about it. Stop throwing blame at someone who wasn’t even president during that time.
I love how much you care about deficits now. Where have you been the past four years?
Way more = Trump promised to eliminate the deficit in his first term only to increase it to record levels. Biden and Harris didn’t promise to do anything about it.
You've been proven wrong over and over and over. You're a joke on here and don't have the self awareness to realize it. The two both sides guys here are brilliant at false equivalencies. Trump shows us every single day that we have been right and you aren't capable of owning that you've been full of shit for several years.
Both sides have fault, but they are far, far apart on being on equal footing. Republicans are constantly pushing massive tax cuts for the wealthy, blowing up debt. At least Dems have the balls to say how they will raise taxes on corps and wealthy.
Ummm…they had total control 21-23.
I did and I will look i to them as I think itnwillbe a fun exercise. I would say this only face value. No matter what, they are going to justify why ALL the spending is needed and there will always need to be more. There is quite a bit in the non discretionary that is discretionary.I will give you the benefit of the doubt that you missed my multiple posts showing our deficit and the massive issues we have. I have literally walked through the math on here multiple times. The simple reality is if you cut 100% of ALL discretionary spending including the military (!!!) you would just get to a balanced budget, but you still wouldn’t be paying down any debt at all.
So when you make a statement like that it comes across very hollow. I have shown the math previously on why we have to raise revenue. Show me the math where we don’t please. I would love to be wrong.
Here is a post of mine to peruse in case you want to know why we have a spending problem AND a revenue problem:
Trump's tax plan released. He is doing what he promised.....and it is GREAT!!!
I'm not rich enough nor poor enough to extract any money from the treasury. Sorry. What would happen to your check if Medicaid funding for care centers was slashed in half.iowa.forums.rivals.com
This is not true.
It’s laughable that you, or anyone, don’t realize that your SS # has likely already been compromised by other entities. 🥴
I do indict Biden and Harris and every other damned politician that doesn’t address the largest issue our country faces,
Oh don’t get me wrong…I think we have to massively cut spending, I don’t like HOW Doge is doing it (I would prefer it is done in concert with Congress and by people who know what they are doing) but we do need to cut the spending.
