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.

Did the Republicans in the Senate try to pass a clean standalone bill?

He supports Mitch McConneell.

He helped Kemp to get elected in GA.

He helped Raffensperger to get elected in GA.

He appointed Mnuchin and Ross, two billionaire Wallstreet bankers, who sold out the US with even worse trade deals and increased the budget deficit to record hights.

And yet the Covid bill had money for rural areas run down by Republicans.

It didn't start in 2020. You're right. But it's still going on and it's only getting worse. All under Republican leadership. My disdain for Republicans is as big as your disdain for Democrats, that's why I just don't care, just don't distort the truth and see that you are playing into the hands of the billionaire elite.

Republican rural areas are run by Republicans not Democrats. All of them did nothing when rural areas were flooded with opioids. All of them supported free trade agreements. All of them support the new scam deal with Mexico and Canada called USMCA. Under Trump our trade deficit with Mexico almost doubled. Biggest increase any under president. Seven car factories were closed in the last two years in Canada and the US, but not a single one in Mexico? Why wasn't one closed in Mexico? Because the new USMCA scam deal is even worse than NAFTA. More "free trade" while honest Americans are losing their jobs. Furthermore last year we set a record for opioid overdoses, most of them in rural America. This year will be another record year. All under Trump.

I talk about how Republicans destroyed rural areas by shipping jobs overseas and flooding rural areas with opioids. Billions of $$$ in the bill was for correcting these Republicans caused issues. And the Democrats got $$$ for their BLM ruined cities.

One and the same. The Democrats want money for the cities, which they destroyed and the Republicans want money for rural areas which they destroyed. The only person here changing the subject is you.

I'm not changing the subject. The bill had billions for Democrat ruined cities and the bill had billions for Republican ruined rural areas.

I don't talk about the riots. I talk about how Republicans destroyed rural areas by shipping jobs overseas and flooding rural areas with opiods.

The Republicans in the Senate and the House are able to introduce bills. Not a single one of them did that. Why didn't Trump pressure McConnell to introduce legislature for a standalone bill?

This Covid bill is filled with so much nonsense it's astounding. Somehow the Republicans amended it with a tax break for owning a racehorse.

It's 100% obvious that Pelosi held up any stimulus in order to harm Trump's electoral chances.

The house passed stimulus after stimulus. In September and October. They all died in the Senate where McConnell refused to discuss them.
