Says the dumb **** who whines about Carter every day. When was his last day in office?

By the way, the laptop you speak of is over two years old, you ready to stop talking about that too?

Lol. Foxnose self-owns herself more than Marcus Tyler Greene!

Trump has been out of office for over 2 years but still lives in the rent free compartments of your head. Joe Biden has been president for over 2 years, he has cured Covid, increased the minimum wage to $20 per hour, won the war in Afghanistan, lowered the temperature by 1/10 of a degree, created millions of acres of new beaches by lowering sea level, increased our population by 5 million, and now kept classified document safe in his garage for 30 or 40 years free and yet Trump haunts you. Move on, start to heal, it has been 2 years.

The wall didn't only not stop anyone, it actually made it worse.

You mean aside of the obvious irresponsible nature of spending what you don't have?
Other than that I'd say it's a deep hatred for the Democrats and a desire to upend anything they've done. Yep. That's about right

you mean like how trump's irresponsible nature of spending for a wall that didnt stop anyone and is still costing us to keep up the repairs on the portion of the wall that was built?

Of course the gop will ALL be against it..Bernie Sanders is proposing legislation that will eliminate the cap on taxab;e Social Security earnings..Let the millionaires and billionaires pay SS tax no matter how much they earn instead of having a cap on what they pay..SS would be solvent for many years

It takes money to run a government and you can't get money by cutting taxes. Is it really fair for one person to do without so another one can have more? Even when that person has more than they can use.

Rush Limbaugh said it best, "Nobody is a fiscal conservative anymore. All this talk about concern for the deficit and the budget has been bogus for as long as it's been around."

If I remember correctly, every GOP President had national debt and a lot of it. It came from giveaway programs to the really wealthy.

It is never an issue when the GOP is spending money. It is just an issue when democrats are spending money.

Bill Clinton killed the banking law put in place after the Great Depression.

Hey lamont, they all pass tax plans generated by the Ways and Means Committee of the House.

Didn't bush jr pass a tax plan too?

Oh wait, you're serious?

There was no recession that "hit" under Obama, you're thinking of the housing market bubble that burst in 2008 (while Bush Jr was President). Obama oversaw 75 months of positive growth.

... at least one recession did begin under every Republican president since Ronald Reagan compared with zero under Democratic presidents over the same period. As a "strong recovery," the Clinton administration clearly qualifies, landing in the fourth spot for growth since World War II. The Obama administration recovery is a jump ball, posting a weaker 2% average GDP, but scoring 75 months of positive job growth.

Bill Clinton caused the recession that hit under Obama and Obama had to borrow his way out of it.
