But welfare isn't. And consumer and government debt are all time high.

It would take Congress to make changes to the welfare system. Not gonna happen unless Republicans get 60 seats in the Senate.

If unemployment is actually moving those numbers would be moving better not worse.

Trump is a classic modern economy print and spend for growth politician. The scary part is he convinced conservatives printing money and providing cheap easy credit is conservative.

Classic retort of the uninformed. Trump has been bitching for years we need to reign in spending. The President doesn't set the budget. I think he should've vetoed the last one but that's all he can do. Then they'll just pass it over his head anyway.

Lol. Maybe you should see where he says they won't be paying down the debt at all and is calling for Quantative Easing and lowering rates.

Maybe you should see where he wants to cut the budget. Facts suck when they get in the way of your preferred narrative, I know. I'd expect nothing less from you.

People can say anything they want. His administration has now said they won't be cutting the budget.

Anyhow he has veto power. Now he wants to add a 2 trillion infrastructure plan.

Again munchin has said we will not be paying down the debt.

And check out his proposed budgets. Meaning from the White House. They are debt heavy.

But again I would only expect you to be a politician defender not a real conservative.

Republicans are no longer conservatives. Trump is as liberal with monetary policy as we have ever had. The largest budgets in history during economic growth show that.


White House chief economic adviser Larry Kudlow told reporters Monday that President Trump is unlikely to pay off any of the national debt, currently at $22 trillion.

Every budget proposal balances after 10+ years. That's nothing new going back several Presidents. No policy going forward that takes into account the reality that Democrats in the House will never cooperate with cutting the budget will change the fact that the administration has talked about cutting government across the board with few exceptions like the military. Sorry that doesn't fit your chosen narrative.

Lol. It's not a narrative. The budget with Republicans was terrible before the mid terms.

What someone says or even intends have no bearing on reality. The reality is this bubble is built on consumer debt. The debt is larger than the gdp and getting worse under trump.
