Trump Is a Big Government Liberal

[Ethereal]

The spending IS up. On that point you are correct, but his instincts remain pro-business (not necessarily pro-market, which I don't like) and at the end of the day:

And if you pay $.56 off each dollar earned and now after moving to FL and Donald Trump, I pay $.40 -- that's a major, major difference.

As a result of Trump I get to make more individual decisions.

The increased spending is real, the tax cut is only nominal.

So repeat. Blame the House. They control the purse strings. They said they would shut down government if they did not get almost 500 billion for new social spending.
Trump could have vetoed it but then you would have been complaining that he shut down the government.

Now try to explain your BS.

P.S. House is run by Democrats.

Not for 70% of Trump's first term to date.

Both the China and USMCA Trade Bills means billions more in exports. Those billions being sold means more tax revenue to the Treasury...both from producers and employees...new and present.

One other thing...with a first ever Trade deal with China our two nations have moved a step closer. They have something important to both to talk about and that could bring better relationship between the nations. Anything and everything that can bring nations together makes the world a better and safer place.

We are spending more, but the congress is responsible for that.

There's no doubt that many needless federal regulations have bee eliminated and that supports the idea of smaller government.

The Democrats have only had the House for the last year. 30% of Trump's term to date. So you're blaming the Republicans just as much as your blaming the Democrats. I happen to agree!

The CR was created Dec 22, 2018 and 2019 had a large increase in the deficit because of Democrat spending under Pelosi. Thank You for making my point.
But we will agree that Paul Ryan was not good for the economy either.

Just look at his record so far. Gigantic deficits, growing debt, bigger government than ever before. He also supports universal healthcare and gun control. Trump is just another big government liberal.

lol did you understand what you just said.
hes trimmed government regulation nation wide. hes only interested in common sense gun laws but supports gun owners .
he was against Obama care but is for health care reform that makes sense.our debt has been growing for a couple decades .
I know socialist and commies don't like him that includes you.

[Tahuyaman]

Trump is a mixed bag. He supports less government control of private enterprise, but he has no problem expanding government in many other areas.


Trump is not a true conservative. It's perplexing why liberals hate him so much. It has to be personality driven.

What about the first two years when the republicans controlled both houses of congress. Spending still went up. Who are you going to blame now??
