The budget deficit was already at record high camp is backstabbing the president as we speak right now same with raffensperger nobody said Trump was perfect look what aCB is backstabbing the president if both Republicans and Democrats against the president if you haven't noticed I've been paying attention so whatever Point you're trying to make you're not making it
The budget deficit wasn't at a record high. In 2016 (Obama's last year) it was at around $550 billion. Every year since then it increased. In 2019 (pre-Covid) it already hit $1 trillion again.
Also, I'm making the point, but you're not making the case. The USMCA is a failure, but Trump still praises it. He is on his way to spend more money in 4 years than Obama did in 8 years, and he wants to spend even more. Illegal immigration is as high as under Obama, even with his wonderful wall. There is not a single year where we hit a 3% GDP growth rate. Highest was in 2018 with 2.9%, same as Obama in 2015. This while the budget deficit increased and increased. The tax cuts for low income and middle income families will expire in a few months, but the tax cuts for the wealthy were made permanent. But he still praises his tax cuts. Seems like Trump filled up his cabinet with swamp creatures. And then fired the swamp creatures to hire more swamp creatures. Fool him once, shame on them, fool him twice, shame on him.
