It’s particularly distressing that even Trump didn’t care about the wild deficit spending. When asked about it, he said something along the lines of It’s not my problem. I’ll be gone before it gets really bad


Really? Trump did what he could to reduce expenses.

“I’ll be gone before it really gets bad?” DON’T QUOTE THE MAINSTREAM MEDIA. Find better information.

I suppose it would have been worse without him. But just like with every president before him, the deficit went up, up, up while he was in the White House.

Don’t get me wrong. Not just some, but most of the blame goes to Congress. But Trump was not a disinterested observer. He was part of the process. He (or DeSantis) has got to do better next time. We will never get a handle on this problem if we always hold our favorites blameless.
