Remember that the next time you try to make an argument that Republicans care about reducing the cost of government.

Total US debt has officially crossed above $37 trillion for the first time in history.

This puts total US debt up +$780 billion since the debt ceiling was raised following the signing of the "One Big Beautiful Bill Act" into law.

This equates to an average cost of $22 billion per day.

Last week alone, the government sold $724 billion in Treasuries through 10 auctions.

The US debt crisis is worse than ever.

And all you care about, still, is owning the libs. No matter how much of your taxes are wasted by irresponsible governance.

And you fools cannot even see the repercussions of your own actions.

When will you finally stop voting against your own self-interests?

Dumb as dirt. Still.

Expensive government. Too expensive. Y'all don't care.

Trump puts Biden to shame on the spending. Massively more year over year spending and in the context of destructive cuts to medical research and other programs.

Whatever. A manufacturing business that I have a piece of also borrows money. They have more debt than they did when they started. But their revenues have grown. So why do you not tell us that the United States has received billions of dollars due to Trump‘s tariffs and trade deals. So he is spending money to make money is the way I see it. This is beyond the scope of Sue or you or someone who cannot understand these machinations going on, as she for example says we do not need to have businessmen running the government. If we didn’t, how would we know how to borrow money to our benefit?
Wood Kamala, bless her, have a feel for borrowing money and doing the business of government? Are you aware of how many words that economists throw around that she has never even heard, and would certainly not understand?????

Mott, the *real* benefit the dems have been getting over the years is -
Having more illegals increases the population of that state and, that state now gets more seats in the House!

And yes, the illegals will fill those seats with democrats. the bleepin' cheaters.

? If a tribe in the Congo has a village to take care of, they will elect some people to do things in their campfire councils to grow the village. The village will grow with their guidance, but that does not mean that the government itself is growing. The government causes certain investments to occur, so that everyone can be successful in their lives. That is to get Rich or throw darts in a pub, but the government itself does not grow..

No, pinhead, it is voting against your own self-interest that is the brain-dead thing to do.

He's thinks it is so because Donald Trump said it is so. You know, the guy who told 30,000 lies in his first term alone?
