A sad habit that most presidents seem to have. But I will say that his worst pre-covid deficit was only about half of Biden's deficit last year. Any reason Biden needed to spend an extra trillion last year instead of trying to be at least a little prudent after the overspending that both he and Trump did during Covid? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Back to Biden's fun speech at Morehouse- he claimed "I got more Morehouse men in the WHite House telling me what to do than I know what to do!" Actually, there are NO Morehouse men working for Biden in any capacity, and never have been. Yet more BS and lies from your esteemed President. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biden's 2023 deficit has nothing to do with Covid. Nor the projected deficit for this year. And both are nearly twice as much as Trump at his worst. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanaguma Posted May 22 Share Posted May 22 His commencement address at Morehouse was truly shameful. He was talking as if it were the 1950s. Some examples; "What is democracy? What is democracy? That Black men are being killed in the street. The trail of broken promises still leaves Black communities behind. What is democracy? You have to be ten times better than anyone else to get a fair shot. Most of all, what does it mean? As you've heard before, to be a Black man who loves his country even if it doesn't love him back in equal measure." How evil. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will refer to Statista for the latest numbers; https://www.statista.com/statistics/200410/surplus-or-deficit-of-the-us-governments-budget-since-2000/ Trumps three pre-covid deficits were 0.5, 0.7, and 0.98 trillion dollars. Covid was 3.1 trillion in 2020. Biden's Covid deficit was 2.8 trillion in 2021. Then, after Covid, 1.4 trillion in 2022 and 1.7 trillion in 2023, projected at 1.8 trillion in 2024. So yeah, Trump's Covid deficit was slightly bigger than Biden's. But after Covid, Biden is still overspending at a rate that Dangerous Don never came close to doing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You really don't believe that there is a national epidemic of police murders of Black men? No. According to the Police Violence Report, a total of 95 unarmed people were killed by police in 2023. Of those 95, 34 were black. Tragic and stupid, but hardly a national epidemic. And no data as to how many were killed by racist white cops, since a large percentage of police are themselves black or hispanic. https://policeviolencereport.org/ There IS an epidemic of black men murdering black men though. Something in the range of 8,000 or 9,000 black people are murdered by OTHER black people every year. So tell me, which is the true epidemic? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trump for his faults had Covid as an excuse. And I thought it was stupid to lockdown AND pay everyone FWIW. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
