So you don't agree, that Democrats are wastrels who drove the debt with more wasteful spending than Republicans.
Good to know.
Show us "wasteful" spending by Trump vs. what the Democrats have been wasting for the last 60 years.
Never forget... it's not the amount that's spent, since inflation and the price of EVERYTHING going up, it's how much they spent
vs. what the debt was before they got into office.
Obama DOUBLED the debt, with more pork in his budgets than Trump's. Has Trump DOUBLED the debt?
I don't mind paying more for national defense than Drag-Queen reading and Trans-rights bills.
All the BLM-lovers, Drag Queen-lovers, Gay-lovers, Socialist, Antifa-loving Fascists, Marxist, Communist, Racist, Insurrectionist,
Liberal Democrats ever spend money on, is buying votes from those very "entities".
"WE" spend on shit we NEED, not want.
Go ahead... make a list of what YOU think is wasteful spending by the "wastrels".
Be prepared for a nice BIG rebuttal.

"Trump Derangement Syndrome" Is a Real Mental Condition
All you need to know about "Trump Derangement Syndrome," or TDS.
"Trump Derangement Syndrome (TDS) is a mental condition in which a person has been driven effectively insane due to their dislike
of Donald Trump, to the point at which they will abandon all logic and reason."
Justin Raimondo, the editorial director of Antiwar.com, wrote a piece in the Los Angeles Times in 2016 that broke TDS down into
three distinct phases or stages:
"In the first stage of the disease, victims lose all sense of proportion. The president-elect's every tweet provokes a firestorm,
as if 140 characters were all it took to change the world."
"The mid-level stages of TDS have a profound effect on the victim's vocabulary: Sufferers speak a distinctive language consisting
solely of hyperbole."
"As TDS progresses, the afflicted lose the ability to distinguish fantasy from reality."
The Point here is simple: TDS is, in the eyes of its adherents, the knee-jerk opposition from liberals to anything and everything
Trump does. If Trump announced he was donating every dollar he's ever made, TDS sufferers would suggest he was up to something
nefarious, according to the logic of TDS. There's nothing - not. one. thing. - that Trump could do or say that would be received
positively by TDSers.
The history of Trump Derangement Syndrome actually goes back to the early 2000s - a time when the idea of Trump as president was a
punch line for late-night comics and nothing more.
Wikipedia traces its roots to "Bush Derangement Syndrome" - a term first coined by the late conservative columnist Charles
Krauthammer back in 2003. The condition, as Krauthammer defined it, was "the acute onset of paranoia in otherwise normal people in
reaction to the policies, the presidency - nay - the very existence of George W. Bush."
