Another Siri messed up

Liar liar pants lobes del Dmmm Diego

We are taking financial advice from a man who has filed bankruptcy multiple times

Trump is worthless.

You people are such idiots. In order to cut the deficit, we need more money coming into the Treasury. That's what happens when people are free to spend their own money. CutGovernment NoMoreDemocratControl

Democrats say they want to grow the deficit. There not lying.

So sick of news headlines that report his lies and contradictions. Actual news would be if he said something truthful for once.

We now have annual trillion dollar deficits, the debt will soon exceed 100% of GDP, interest rates and inflation are rising - all due to Trump's tax scam.

Right. How does one reduce their debt when they foolishly reduce their income? They simply add 2 trillion to the deficit. DUH!

Omnibus , thanks democrats for holding military funds hostage until you got equal spending on earmarks and pork barrel spending.. Lets stick to where the budget comes from . It just lands on POTUS to close govt or sign it.

Well, when people someone vote for a man who doesn't pay bills and who counts debt as an asset...

Only 2 ways to cut with any significance-raise taxes and/or cut benefits. Both will hurt the middle/lower income class -the most sensible solution is to repeal the huge tax cut to the wealthy but don't hold your breath waiting for that to happen.

Idiot

No President could ever increase the debt more than what Obama did. Obama increased the national debt more than the total of all of the previous presidents put together.

The guy lies even when he thinks 6420falseclaimsin649days

There is no Press in this country, what we have is DNC political operatives driving the narrative while masquerading as a journalist! Alinsky would be proud!

tRump will take away every social funded program. He'll forget infrastructure, and take food away from babies before he'd take anything away from the wealthy for budget cuts!

Yes. Let’s thoroughly analyze what is already abundantly clear.

Fine REPEAL his phony tax package giveaway for the rich and corporate America

Give him a chance, he has to fight the tax and spend democrats in order to get things done

trump and mconnell want to cut the deficit by cutting social security or raising the retirement age and cutting Medicare.

Also wants a Space Force and sharks with freakin' lazer beams attached to their heads.

President Pinocchio also said he saw Muslims dancing on NJ rooftops on 9/11, he’d release tax returns “after routine audit,” no truth to Stormy Daniels claims, etc, so why wld anyone believe anything this liar says?

Trump is good enough of a salesman to make his followers believe he cares for them a bit.

Where is the middle class taxcut WE didn't get in his gop corporate TAXSCAM giveaway the HE promised in the closing days of the 2018 BLUE WAVE elections of DEMOCRATS ACROSS OUR NATION? Like his WALL he LIED about who pays?

My GOD..this bastard never has had economics has he?

NOTHING that comes out his mouth should ever be taken seriously or as legitimate. This charade should’ve ended months/years ago. C’mon maaaaan. fraud tyrant lies MoneyLaundering taxevasion collusion adultery accessory felon TrumpIsNotAboveTheLaw

Not the way he is going! We have another fine GOoP mess to clean up!

That man should be locked in a padded cell!

The Washington Compost, the true threat to America

wait - didn't he just add like a trillion dollars to the deficit? nice gift form to leave to whoever cleans his clock in 2020...

President Buffoon bufooning

When he gets as bad as Obama, then come talk to me.

More lies from Trump Different day, different lie.... So many bad decisions and screw ups he’s made / done, that I can’t even keep up. Maybe that’s his (Trump’s) intention though.

Remember the good old days when the GOP was the fiscally responsible party? Now it's all just talk.

Think he'll reduce his golf trips in an effort to 'tighten the belt'? Me either.....

Analysis | The Finance 202: Trump continues to bash Fed as markets dipThe president has been silent on Wall Street's tumble.

They are not even a Federal agency but we give unyielding power with no oversight or control! History tells the Fed is responsible for most o our recessions and depressions! Its time for them to go!
