    $1 trillion added to the debt. Deficit is different. 

    Obama at least moved it in the right direction while in office. We'll see how it continues to move now

  • It just underscores the futility of voting in the first place. Republicans could have approach this from an austerity angle and really tightened up the US economy debt and deficit. But they compromised. Now it stinks worse than it did before but not as bad as will stink a few years from now.

    Has Trump done anything wrong ever? No reply about Hillary or Obama. They sucked too.

    Neither team wants to address the problem because they are cowards. They will drive till the wheels fall off then try to blame the other guy. That mentality has passed on to the people who are deeply invested in the team politics.

    1) Why pictures and no links?

    2) You say you know the difference but you fooled me in your initial post. Because $1T was not "added to the deficit".

    Trump has done plenty wrong, but when the Obama groupies want to Bitch about the deficit...nobody can hold a candle to Barry.

    1) Why provide a link when you’ll just dismiss it anyway?

    2) $1 trillion was sarcasm, it doesn’t carry across in a post very well.

    1) You seem to be very defensive about your source...

    2) Based on the context of the thread before your post, and the phrasing in your post, it really doesn't sound like sarcasm. But if you say so, then ok

    So Obama talk again? Already established he sucks. 

  • yeah, but obaMao was a commie-mentored, socialist professor favoring, radical leftwing racist sombeitch who wanted to undermine who we are as a free country.

    Trump is not perfect, but he wants to MAGA.

    Ew. I mean, we all do. But he can do that in private. I don't need to know about it.

    Every president has probably thought they were making things better. I doubt any of them go into it thinking they are gonna screw things up. I have a load of doubts about Trump. He is pro 2A which is one of the few things I can align with the guy on. Everything else is a circus. I can’t stand a thin skinned cry baby.

    Well when you're referring to fiscal incompetence, Obama IS the benchmark. Establishing a president that sucks has been pretty much the norm during my lifetime. There were a couple that were worse than Obama that come to mind, like Jimmy Carter, and Gerald Ford.

    Actually policy-wise I don't see much problem.  If the Republicans could hold together like the Democrats I think we'd be further along. On the other hand he is something of an a-hole. 

    Of course no matter what he says, does or proposes it's going to go through the Beltline of the mainstream media and come out smelling like shite. 

    Which of the policies or policy proposals do you find to be troubling? Tax cuts? Deregulation? Crackdown on illegal immigration? Support of the Second Amendment? Personally I don't like the budget compromise but imagine that he'd held firm and we close down the government. Imagine The Wailing and gnashing of teeth then.

    No president is going to do what needs to be done on the budget so they are all guilty in that regard. He talked a big game but just cut taxes and didn’t do anything to try and tighten the belt. So less money is coming in and the money going out stayed the same. Tax cuts personally are nice for the short term but I am in my 30s. At some point, my generation will get left holding the bag of dog Sheet.

    The border wall has been one giant joke. Trump lacks any sense so he blabbed that horse crap about the Mexicans being the one who will pay for it because he knew the price tag would be absurd. Well, there was no chance of Mexico paying for that. Sell the idea of the tax payer funded wall. Don’t tell Paul Bunyan tall tales to try and get the public to be on board.

    This cowering in front of Putin then trying to squirm out of having done it is just the latest gripe I have with the guy. 

    Before the usual suspects go “buh buh Hillary/Obama”, they were awful too. The American public got two garbage candidates to choose from. Everyone should have had to hold their nose. That doesn’t mean the least stinky dumpster all of a sudden became something other than a stinky dumpster.

    That last part isn’t directed at you, Steve. You are generally pretty pragmatic. I just hate the current cult mentality that American politics is going through.

    That doesn’t absolve the current President from taking shots because another President did a terrible job. Accountability shouldn’t take a day off.
