Dunno, Trump has a State of the Union coming up in Jan, I would assume.
I hope in his speech he will blame the Republicans for not sending a budget that reduces the debt and ask Congress this year to provide a bill that reduces the debt.
If Trump doesn’t, will you complain he doesn’t care?
We all know the rep party is over. The whole country will be like California… So, it’s now time for dems to step up with some leadership. Let’s see it…
The Dems will not put forth legislation that reduces spending on social programs. It just isn’t happening. IF they decide to save the Presidents butt, they will put forth spending cuts on defense and continue to refuse to fund the wall.
However I suspect Senate and WH to laugh them out of Washington over that.
To put some things into perspective, the November 2018 deficit is roughly half of the entire deficit put up in 2015.
At least we can look forward to a newfound concern about fiscal responsibility from Republicans the moment Democrats take over in 2021 and have to fix all of these problems they were left. As always, the Republican campaign mantra is “You didn’t fix the problems we created and then left for you quickly enough, so put us in power again so we can make more.” .
Nah- your dumb republican party and Trump ballooned the deficit…
“The massive tax cuts signed into law in December, which Republicans said would pay for themselves, will balloon the U.S. deficit in years ahead, the Congressional Budget Office said…”
