<LAUGH>

Wow, this is stupidity taken to its logical extreme.

Fine. HOW did Donald Trump cut the debt at all? Did he pass a budget?

No.

Did he cut any programs?

No.

Did he do ANYTHING?

No.

President Barack Obama cut the debt by 12 billion in January. Thank you for noticing.

The Trumpoleon will take credit for anything good, and blame everyone else for everything bad. Two years old do this. Adults do not. A shame you'll never understand the difference.

How can Tubby Trump cut the debt when he's made no budget yet? The current budget is still Obama's and will be till October.

Technically he cut spending.... so he's cut the deficit. In the long
view he will be cutting the budget, hopefully.


But any way you look at it TRUMP is cutting government spending.

Since there is no statement from the Treasury Dept. for February yet, Tubby Trump has cut nothing.

From the top of the article:

"On January 20th, the day of the Trump Inauguration, the US Debt stood
at $19,947 billion. On February 21st, a month later, the US Debt load
stood at $19,935 billion. Trump cut the US Debt burden by $12 billion
and 0.1% in his first month in office!"

Millions of people died in his first month in office.

As far as I can tell, he existed. That seems to be his own claim, as well as that of his supporters.

"In an early morning tweet Saturday, President Donald Trump echoed a post on a fringe website claiming that the national debt has decreased by $12 billion since Trump took office.

Considering that Trump hasn’t enacted any fiscal legislation, it’s a bit of a stretch for him to take credit for any changes in debt levels," Dan Mitchell, a libertarian economist and senior fellow at the Cato Institute, told us.

"Debt levels go up and down in the short run based on independent factors such as quarterly tax payments and predetermined expenditure patterns," he said.

The White House did not respond to our query for this fact-check."

http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/statements/2017/feb/25/donald-trump/why-donald-trumps-tweet-about-decline-national-deb/

I wonder why Tubby Trump didn't respond to the query.

He didn't pass an $850 Billion dollar infrastructure spending bill that
has zero chance of creating any jobs.

He didn't put more people on food stamps.

TRUMP didn't send the Terrorists Billions of dollars of extortion money
to get troops back or buy the truce from terrorist attacks before an
election he thought the Democrats would win if there were no terrorist
attacks....

He allowed a Keystone Pipeline and many other jobs be created and the
building of a wall that will cut the cost of caring for illegals by more
than the wall will cost.

Trump's good! His policies, that haven't taken effect yet, reduce
spending in a month already gone. Next up for Trump, altering the speed
of the light.

First, tell me what that says in English.

Second, how many jobs did he create? When will they start? How much have they paid in taxes in the last month?

Give us numbers. Now, lying idiot.

Otherwise, you and the Resident are in the same bucket. The one you carry out to the trash dump.

So, aside from a really stupid remark that you can't back up, you don't know.

We'll go with ZERO, then, until you can prove otherwise.
