How the hell are we going to pay back 20 trillion?

[Micawber]

Make Mexico Pay for it ...

See how easy it is to just say shit these days? No accountability at all.
It cost Bush Sr the office and he really cared not to raise taxes. Trump just
says whatever the fuck he wants with no idea whatsoever if it's possible or effective.
He gets away with anything. They don't care. They literally don't give a fuck about anything.
Trump has more "read my lips" moments per second than the last 44 put together since 1787.

???.....just to be clear, I don't even spend $40 a year on the lottery.......

Yeah.......You do not seem like someone that sits at a counter playing and praying instead of working for a living either.

[Rune]

nothing funnier than a demmycrat posing as someone who gives a fuck about deficits.....

Your lies never end

[Sailor]

You don't think there's any Chrysler money in there

This is the ONLY time I am going to say this. That was pretty good! Now begone.

[Celticguy]

Okay now you're being stupid again

Facts trouble you ?

[Rune]

That is alright Cap, I have thick skin!

Damnit Cap, I am talking about the Congress critters.

I think America has finally reached a point where we don't have collateral for our treaury department.

We have about 20 trillion dollars of Gold sitting in Fort Knox.

Without it, I doubt we would be able to sell treasury bonds to the countries who continue to buy them, which basically finances our deficit.

Now that we have reached that point, we may have problems being able to sell our treasury bonds on the international market to offset our deficit.

I got gurry in eyes Cap! Sorry bout that!

You’re a Democrat, aren’t you on the MMT train? Deficits and debt don’t matter...

Oddly, that is exactly what Cheney said to Bush as he was pushing his second tax cut. He said "Reagan proved the debt does not matter'.
It is Republican policy. Crank up the debt and then they think you can justify ending all programs that help the poor or middle class. That is the goal. The debt is just a way to get there.

[Micawber]

Your lies never end

I'm not even a "demmycrat,"if Pimp was talking about me.
I'm a man without a party who jumped ship because he could not be a member
of the stupid party any longer. W and then Trump? Birthers? Tea Party Palin
and that IRS creepy chic? No fucking way. Buckley is rolling over in his grave
and George Will is being driven to an early one. Republicans seek the dumbest possible.

Why?!

Seems the only people who care about the deficit are those currently not in power.

Truth. That's exactly how they rationalized deficit spending, grow out of it, drop taxes of the wealth creators and
all boats get trickled up somehow.

Pointing out your hypocrisy on the deficit doesn't mean we share your phony concerns.

You're preaching to the choir brother.

What is my hypocrisy on the deficit? I've stated several times how I will tackle it once I'm anointed King. It won't be easy and will piss off dims as well as pubs.
