So says the guy who signed into law the 2.2 trillion dollar CARES ACT. As if that wasn’t enough, he also signed into law the 900 billion dollar Consolidated Appropriations Act.

$3,100,000,000,000 of additional spending in one year. Spending our way into oblivion.

$40 TRILLION debt coming soon. Yearly interest of $2 TRILLION, at least. Unsustainable. The numbers will bury us.

Can’t argue with you here. Trump was never a fiduciary conservative.. more like a Daddy Warbucks...

It's easy to tweet, hard to lead. There is no conservatism in Washington. They all hate America, and push more spending.

You have a correct point, although I would extend it to say that it seems like that calling for fiscal responsibility is a lot easier than doing it. Likely because it’s not popular to say that budgets should be cut. Trump made that point on Social Security and Medicare a few times while president, that he did not want to reform them.
