"Hey I know guys let's demolish revenue and then do absolutely nothing to curb spending!!!!! lolololol MAGA"

Republicans are borrowing against your childrens' future for a fleeting bump in economic activity. Just look at what is happening to the deficit. Party of fiscal restraint, right? Him and his party are running the country like one of his failed businesses.

Also, what happens with massive tax cuts and deregulation following economic recovery? You pull the control rods out of the reactor and it gets real hot real fast.... and then it melts down. But by the time it melts down, Trump will be in his second term or a Dem will be in office to take the fall.

Unsurprisingly, unemployment in the US is falling. Remember Obama talking about how those jobs aren't coming back? Turns out it was pretty easy for a President who actually puts America first.
Unemployment is falling but wage growth remains tepid. Overwhelmingly, the creation of new jobs is in still minimum wage or near-minimum wage shit that nobody wants. Meanwhile, many can't afford healthcare, and those who can afford it deal with a system of insurance denial and systematic bureaucratic obstructionism (from private insurance companies) that make it a source of misery and the embarrassment of the civilized world. GOP's answer for this? Tax cuts for rich people.
