In 2017-18, the GOP controlled the White House and both houses of Congress. In 2019-20, they held the White House and Senate. But they increased spending each year, raised the debt limit twice and suspended it three times.
Why would you believe that Republicans really want to cut spending when they didn’t do so when they had the chance?

Why not focus on the here and now...
Inflation reduction act...went from $385 billion to over $1 trillion.
Any comment on current news ?
Well they did have to go back to 2017. Guess they don't want to talk about the current administration because all they know is spend, spend and spend some more.

I admit that Dems like to spend, but at least they’re honest about it.
They were able to get 60 votes to override the constant Democrat filibusters in the Senate?
That's news to me.
Are you sure?
Far left fanatics carefully forget these little things. Every time.
They didn’t even try. The only thing they accomplished was tax cuts for the rich which accounts for over 30% of the current deficit. When they were in power they had no interest in cuts. They like cuts only when the president is from the other side.
