Reality check...
Don't like massive debt and deficits? Don't vote for the GOP.

George Bush (41) took the deficit to -$300 billion per year.

Clinton got it to zero. During his presidency, Clinton managed to zero out the deficit and end his term with a +$128 billion per year surplus.

Lil' Bush (43) went from a surplus to -$1.4 trillion per year.

Obama halved it to -$600 billion per year.

Trump then ramped the deficit up to an unheard of $2 Trillion per year!

"Trump is a @#$%ing moron!" ~Rex Tillerson

How does that stick in your gullet?

Don't like massive debt and deficits? Don't like being lied to every single day? Don't vote for the GOP:

Remember when Trump lied to the American people and said, "I will pay down the national debt, over a period of eight years." ~DJT
"We have $21 trillion in debt. When this [the 2017 tax cut] kicks in, we’ll start paying off that debt like it’s water." ~DJT
"Because of Tariffs we will be able to start paying down large amounts of the $21 trillion in debt that has been accumulated, much by the Obama Administration." (Of course that was also lie.)

One of President Donald Trump’s lesser known but profoundly damaging legacies will be the explosive rise in the national debt that occurred on his watch.
The financial burden that he’s inflicted on our economy and government will wreak havoc for decades, saddling our kids and grandkids with interest payments and debt.

The national debt has risen by almost $7.8 trillion during Trump’s time in office. That amounts to $23,500 in new federal debt for every person in the country. (Including Babies!)

Donald Trump lied a total of 30,573 times over his 4 year presidency. Trump is a PROVEN LIAR. He's made a career of lying to people. 79% of Trump's tweets were rated False by politifact check.

Fool me once shame on you, fool me 30,573 times shame on me?...

========================

And the blind continue to delight in closing their eyes and sticking their fingers in their ears, blaming all of the damage on those who have tried to repair it. And, sadly, it isn't going to change.

He also lost lost millions of American jobs. Sad!

"The amount he's added to the national debt is indecent." ~Mike Pompeo (Life long Republican.)

Who in their right mind would want more of that?

Well now, that depends on your point of view. If you are a member of the tiny oligarch class, everything is wonderful. Trump won't let you down.

Today In Trump's America:
U.S. National Debt surpasses $39 Trillion for the first time in history! Congrats MAGA, you did it!

Remember these classics:
"I will pay down the national debt, over a period of eight years." ~DJT
"When my tax cuts kick in, we’ll start paying off that debt like it’s water." ~DJT
"Because of my Tariffs we will be able to start paying down large amounts of the debt that has been accumulated!" ~DJT

BTW, The national debt rose by $8 trillion during Trump’s time in office.
That amounts to $23,500 in new federal debt for every person in the country. (Including Babies!)

"The amount he's added to the national debt is indecent." ~Mike Pompeo (Life long Republican.)

Where's my Tea Party at...

crickets.

MAGA's Trump Adoration Syndrome (ie, CULT) will ensure they never hear any of that. And FOX 'news' won't bother them with such negative reality.

And ask Dope or LM about these statements from Trump...they don't seem to care about all the lies, or they blame Trump's massive failures on 'others'. Biden did it!
