You think so huh? Then what happened from 2016-2018 when Republicans controlled both bodies of congress and the presidency? They pass a huge tax cut and blow up the deficit even worse than it was under Obama.
After the tax cuts went into EFFECT, revenues INCREASED. you can whine and cry all you want and it won't change that.
Actually I wasn't but since your asking, Yes I could by a mile.
Apparently I trigger people without trying, I was asking just asking a simple question.
Some people are wayyy to sensitive these days, i read the list and agree with it, but I though seeing a comparison would be interesting. Pick another Republican if you like I don't care, I like history and a concise list like the one linked works well.
"but I though seeing a comparison would be interesting." The left constantly says he has done NOTHING.
It is NOT a comparison of what has been done. If he did just 1 THING, it would debunk the dems claims.
I didn't look at the list of likely bloated lies....
Sure, the clown has done a lot...of damage....long term...to our Nation.
On the legislative front? He passed a Tax Bill which shoved it down the throats of the middle class while adding a TRILLION $$$ to the Federal Deficit...after selling it to Congress that the economic boom would more than pay for the cut in Federal Receipts.
How's that working out?
I suspect he is also touting the stock market...just ask about the latest 3/4 of a Trillion $$$ in new QE disguised as "year end liquidity in the repo market".
Simple man thinks in a linear mode while the world operates in multi dimensional mode. But his supporters believe it all without thinking about the consequences....until the water washes up on he back porch, for example.
"I didn't look at the list of likely bloated lies.." Are you going run to your safe place with your crayons and call your therapist because you can't handle ALL thaty he HAS done?
We need real action on Medical Care, Environment, Energy, Immigration, Education, Taxes, Budgets, Deficits, Trade, Allies, Nuclear Proliferation, Domestic Spending/Infrastructure and Jobs.
Tearing something down and then offering a solution which was as before, like USMCA, is nothing much to crow about. Ditto China.
Destroying every trade deal, pissing off all of our former allies and pulling out of every environmental agreement is not exactly "progress".
It wasn't exactly clever to go mess with North Korea and get spun around and sent home like a top. Ditto Iran.
We will recover from the dotard's "successes" but it will take decades. History will remember this experiment by Putin as a very dark hour for America. Pray god we have enough patriots (not the phony folks that show up at his KKK rallies with the red "Made In China" hats) left to bring us back from this attempt at destroying our Democracy.
As one former President said to me way back when the con descended , we have to trust that our Constitution is strong enough to get us through this kind of assault. If not, then we will have failed as an experiment in Democracy.

If you are implying that the tax cuts were a net positive for the federal budget you are absolutely nuts, and factually wrong.
It also needs to be pointed out that Trump and the GOP majorities in the house and senate from 2016-2018 approved dramatic increases in spending along with the tax cuts. The end result was a massive deficit which is unacceptable during a time of economic expansion.
He totally blew up the budget though. So much for his promise to eliminate the deficit and start paying down the debt.
Yea but deficits only matter when Democrats run the show. Right now it’s all about keeping brown people out and trolling Democrats.
This country is going downhill fast. The future of Idiocracy is coming at us fast.
First we had Bush, then we have Trump, next Beavis and Butthead will be our Presidents at this rate.
