Debt Ceiling

The republicans argue that if Biden won't do things their way, it is his fault if we default and get dinged on our national credit rating again...as happened the last time they did this.

Trump added $8 trillion to the national debt and the republicans voted for an increase in the nataional debt ceiling during Trump's four years.

Why didn't they push him to cut the budget?
 
ahhh let is go to default, then all the people who are financial slaves to the wall st elite billionaires will get a rude AWAKENING. I never understood who " wall st" is when the market goes down when they " don't like this or that" - makes you wonder who has the real power in the US. So as the greatest conman loser said recently, let it go to default - he has a ton of experience in defaulting on debts owed.

One, Trump did NOT add A PENNY to the national debt. 75 percent of the federal budget is ENTITLEMENTS, and they go up every year automatically. Only a act of Congress can slow that spending increase. Trump created RECORD numbers of high paying manufacturing jobs with his tax cuts, and that was an INCREASE in revenue. (Reagan did the same thing in the 80s, adding a TRILLION to the budget by 1989.)

Two, rResident Pres. Biden EXPLODED the debt with that stimulus spending. You can tell he spent more because of INFLATION. (Which is defined as too many dollars chasing too few goods.) Joe flooded the money market with newly printed AND BORROWED dollars, thus making the value of the dollar plummet. That's the ONLY reason we're facing this crisis.

Three. You liberals had better PRAY that the Kerrey Danforth Report doesn't actually come true. Readers' Digest version: if nothing is done about federal spending, in the year 2030 ALL of the federal budget will be interest on Social Security. No military, No welfare, no Congressional salaries, JUST INTEREST ON SOCIAL SECURITY. And taxation across the board will be at 90 percent. (The advantage of a classical economics education in the superior state of Florida.)

You can thank serial pork spenders like Obama and pResident Pres. Biden for maybe moving that marker to an early year, like 2028 or even 2025.
The debt ceiling fairy tale is meaningless. We're headed toward Weimar Republican hyperinflation. and rich Democrats just want us to get their faster.

The national debt went from $900 billion to $4 trillion in 1993...that was Reagan/Bush.
National debt climbed to $5.6 trillion when Clinton was president.
It was $12 trillion in 2009...So "W" added another $6 trillion or so. It rose to $20 trillion by the time Trump came in. He added $8 trillion...it was $29 trillion in 2021...and rose $2 trillion thru 2022. Those are the facts.

Either the president is responsible for the budget or he isn't. Debt went up $8 trillion while Trump was in charge. The deficit under BIden has been cut substantially. How can you blame BIden but offer excuses for Trump? Oh yeah....you're a hack and incapable of independent thought.

I especially like the claim that Trump didn't add a penny to the debt...
Well that is the truth - he added billions not a penny - whoops ! Hey maybe he could loan the govt some of that pardon for sale million$ ?

The right wing pols and justices - the best money can buy !

1. Trump increased the national debt by $8.5 trillion, or 43%, regardless of your opinion that the buck stops anywhere else.
2. 52% of spending (not 75%) is for entitlements, so-called because it is money the government OWES people. But discretionary spending increased 25% under Trump.
3. Revenue was reduced by 10% under Trump. The Reagan tax cuts reduced revenue by 13%, which is one reason the debt nearly tripled under Reagan and would’ve gone even higher if not for Reagan’s tax hikes early in his first term.
4. The deficit was reduced by 1/3 under Biden. It more than quadrupled under Trump. The M3 money supply increased by an annualized average of 10.1% under Trump and 4.5% under Biden. It is known that it takes a few years for the effects of inflationary policy to be seen in prices, and Biden inherited looming inflation due mostly to decisions made under Obama and Trump.
5. You are entitled to your own opinions … not to your own facts.

They didn't have Majority back then
Joey added almost a $Trillion in first 6 months and it's evident Black politicians don't understand the debt ceiling problem
