So when the national debt increased $2.5 Trillion in 2018-2019... what's the excuse for that?

U.S. Budget Deficit by Year Compared to GDP and Debt

The federal budget deficit rises when government spending is high, such as during wars or recessions. Budget deficits cause the national debt to grow.

I guess the excuse is where it was when Obama accumulated more debt in his two terms than all other previous presidents combined.

Just curious if you've criticized Obama's spending? If you didn't, then there shouldn't be any issue with Trump's. If you have a libertarian worldview, then I get it for both parties involved. If not, then pot meet kettle.

Thank you. As far as I'm concerned, only Libertarians can get mad over Trump's spending. Liberals getting upset over that confuse me as they have always supported spending, even so much that they're willing to spend our revenue on illegal immigrants. I will gladly entertain someone wanting to discuss radical spending, but only if its from a conservative or libertarian. We are the only one's that have earned the right. LOL. Lefties spend, its just what they do.

I dont make excuses. The days of balanced budgets are over. I do however prefer to get something of value in return. Do we as a nation benefit from the spending? Did we under Obama? I can tell from a military POV it wasnt the worst of times for me or best of times. Now that I am civilian my priorities have changed
 
More and more from Kayne makes me think he is running to sabotage Biden. Another few pieces from his interview. If he is serious about what he says, it will be celebrity face off in 2024. He will not be the only one who jumps in. The craziness of politics that is called the Trump factor won’t be close to what we will hear if that happens.

If Trump wasn’t already the GOP candidate, West told the magazine he would run as a Republican, adding, “I will run as an independent if Trump is there.”

That is a form of racism and white supremacy and white control to say that all Black people need to be Democrat and to assume that me running is me splitting the vote. All of that information is being charged up on social media platforms by Democrats. And Democrats used to tell me, the same Democrats have threatened me … The reason why this is the first day I registered to vote is because I was scared. I was told that if I voted on Trump my music career would be over. I was threatened into being in one party.


I was threatened as a Black man into the Democratic Party. And that’s what the Democrats are doing, emotionally, to my people. Threatening them to the point where this white man can tell a Black man if you don’t vote for me, you’re not Black,” he said.

Does anyone not find it strange that if politicians get the virus that they really don’t get sick or die from it? Like much of our politicians are high risk to very high risk. Yet across the world few have gotten sick or have even gotten the virus. Which is good just very strange that general public is getting it and they are not.

As I have previously mentioned, I think Trump is a egotistical jerk and Biden is a wandering aimless moron so I think I could very well vote for Kanye.

The reason I vote Trump. It’s because I don’t want Democrats to control White House senate and Congress. To me that’s terrifying with the far lest socialist in congress and senate. Biden would sign anything Dems send to his desk. Just think about that for a moment New green deal would pass, police Defunding will happen, 2nd amendment would be under attack, illegals would be granted free healthcare and welfare, America will be transformed into a America a lot of people won’t like. Do you want Democrats controlling all chambers of Government White House senate and congress?

So basically what you’re saying and based on this chart is we should give Trump 4 more years before judging since that’s when the deficit went down under Obama?
