Ah, the old game where Republicans scream and yell against any type of disaster aid… unless it's for them.
Why don't we make a new rule? How about we just do disaster aid and get people out of trouble. It's not a huge driver of the deficit and Republicans can pretend to be deficit hawks when people's lives aren't on the line.
The Florida governor ‘put politics aside’ to ask Joe Biden for federal – unlike when he voted against help for Hurricane Sandy victims
A Pattern Continues
You can’t argue with the data
Broken down by Party:
The GDP has grown as much under Democrats in four terms as Republicans in five (full data for the current administration isn’t available yet)
The deficit is when the government spends more money than it raises in taxes; it makes up the difference by borrowing from other countries, increasing our national debt (it’s over $24.714 trillion at time of writing, 115% of our GDP, $21.487 trillion)
Broken down by party:
The deficit grew slightly Reagan and Bush Sr, tanked under Bush Jr during the Great Recession, and continues to plummet under Trump.
The deficit decreased so much under Clinton that we had a surplus for the first and only time in modern history, and Obama managed to more than halve it during his time in office, almost bringing us back to pre-recession levels by 2015.
No matter how you slice it, Democrats are better for the economy than Republicans. Of course, none of this matters anymore because stonks are imaginary and the numbers are somehow always good for corporations no matter how much they fluctuate.
Oil is less than worthless!
The stock market had its biggest crash in history followed by its biggest gain in history; this happened because reasons!
Rich people get richer and poor people lose their jobs en masse!
HUZZAH! God Bless America!
Republicans never balance budgets it's a myth. They blow up the budget with giveaways to the rich
