What a crock. What was the deficit spending under Trump? 7.9 trillion. In 4 years! Please oh genius go back to Jimmy Carter and moving forward and tell meI don't think you're asking this in earnest but I will respond even though I'm quite sure you are unreachable.
First of all this: https://www.heritage.org/debt/comme...-far-outpaces-trump-racking-the-national-debt
Second, the Democrats always outspend (inflate) the economy. The Republicans are guilty as well but the Democrats are much worse. Biden caused this inflation simply by printing so much money.
You can talk about taxing the rich and paying your fair share all you want but it's nonsense. The top 10% of earners pay over 60% of all Federal taxes and 76% of all Federal Income Taxes. Yeah, I know they take home a lot and should be punished further for working hard.
"Fair" would mean everyone would pay the same rate, say 10%. But we don't do that we have a progressive tax rate. The more you make the higher percentage you pay. But that's not enough we need to tax the rich more, maybe the top 10% should pay all of the income taxes right? Bring that top rate up to 90% like in the good old Carter days, or don't you remember them?
You want less of something tax it. Want more out of the US economy, then tax it less. Want more US based business, then tax (tariff) off shore companies. Oh wait, there is a difference between taxes and tariffs. Even Biden knows this, which is why he kept the Trump tariffs, little known inconvenient fact.
Now, the price of things are always going to be higher on average moving forward in time as the government prints money and thus inflates the total without changing the actual value. Print more and it's all worth less. This is how Roosevelt started the Democratic collapse of the US economy in 1933 by suspending the gold standard. You see, you can't print money if it has to be backed by gold. He took care of that and we are in tremendous debt to this day. In fact we pay more to service our debt (Thanks FDR and all the Dems who have followed him) than we pay for the military.
I could go on and on but I'd be wasting our time because you and most around here have your eyes and ears shut to reality and are thus "unreachable."
Scarily the liberal media, meaning most of it in the US, NBC, CBS, MSNBC, ABC, CNN, New York Times, Washington Post, and on and on.. nearly convinced people to elect an avatar through pushing the same lies day after day, week after week, year after year. They even convinced you. Luckily sanity ruled the day and the she wasn't able to fail up to the highest position on the planet.
So how will Trump help? First thing is we will do our best to enforce immigration law, not try to circumvent it to allow in future voters for the democrat party. Second is to ease regulations especially concerning energy. Lower energy prices and every drops in price. That's big one.
Anyway I hoped I've answered your question. And yes, at the end of the day people need to be able to afford a box of cereal and keep the heat on.
I along with the rest of the trash rest our case.
which Republican President wasn’t a massive deficit spender or had a recession start during his term?. Your whole argument is built on feelings. Not facts.
You think tariffs will create more American jobs? God, you are ignorant. Do you even know how tariffs work? Jesus, both the left and right wing economists balk at tariffs. Tariffs are a tax on Americans. Also, genius, you think other countries won’t retaliate with their own tariffs? Tariffs lead to trade wars and to massive inflation.
I also love your veiled white replacement theory you got going on. Sure seemed like a lot of Hispanics voted for Trump. Put a dent in your racist theory about how Democrats are “letting in “Illegal immigrants”
Remind me my unserious friend who scuttled the very conservative border bill recently developed by conservative senators? Was it the libtards or your boy Trump so he could run a campaign on fearing the brown people. Good luck deporting all those undocumented workers and not totally crashing the economy.
Yes, let’s go back to the gold standard. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
At this point I hope Trump does everything you say so can I imagine your puzzled face as you watch it all burn down. I am sure you will still use your “feeling” and somehow blame Democrats.
