I Give Trump Zero Credit For Better Economic Conditions - Zero

Any brain dead imbecile could run up the deficit a trillion dollars a year (giving billionaires more spending money), and create economic activity by removing regulations from polluters, and pollution.

The numbers will be better short term, of course. The bill will be paid "down the road" and it will be a lot higher. Our kids will have to pay the bill.

Everything Trump does makes our country's problems worse. A little short term wage growth will be paid for by trillions of dollars of interest, and environmental destruction. Floods, fires, hurricanes etc. Ocean acidification, sea level rise, and a baking planet.

It is not worth the cost by any measure.

When we should start doing better, we are doing a lot worse.

And we should be paying down the debt not racking up trillions more. (billionaires)

Guess you don't know how Real Republicans work!

It's not until a Democrat is in the White House that deficits are a problem - and you can't have that marvelous "trickle-down effect" work unless you give the 1% more money to put the plan into action!
