Can’t say. Its always either spending too much or taxing too little, whichever your viewpoint is. Waiting eagerly for Biden to get spending under control.

Those numbers are the deficit. Not the debt.
I don’t recall libs complaining about Trump not having a debt reduction plan. Can you point out some examples?
No. Why the hell would I? have absolutely zero interest in convincing you that libs were whining about the debt. Why would that interest me at all?
Why did we have such large deficits 2016-2019 when the economy was so great? It grew during a time we had steady growth.
Will the same liberal who complained about the Trump debt also complain about the Biden debt? Or will they go silent?

Look at the column headings. Under the column titled deficits, for 2018, you will find these numbers: 779 (in billions).
I can do no more.

And we were talking all along about the deficit.
No. From 2017 to 2018. A doubling of the deficit.

If Biden cuts taxes during good times, I will complain. Would rather that money go towards the debt.

Show me one liberal who complained about the deficit?
I haven’t said a word about the run up of the deficit in the last nine or ten months because the time to run trillions in deficit is during a pandemic that has shut down about thirty percent of tube economy.
The budget busting tax bill, different story.

I don’t think you will ever have to worry about either. Biden will not cut taxes and he will not make payments on the debt.

Shame on you Doug. You are supposed to let libs move the goal posts, even change fields, or what game is being played or just flat make stuff up and get by with it.
Federal deficit in 2017 = 665B
Federal deficit in 2018 = 799BDoubled? 20% is not good. But doubled?
You are right - my mistake. Read the columns wrong.
Doubled the debt in one year in an expanding economy.

Not quite as bad as 2015 to 2016, at least.
And no, that does not represent doubling the debt.
