    So you lied on the DMV form by answering no, because it's not asking for your opinion.

    Wrong. I didn't have a condition that causes unconsciousness or unawareness. I am an alert driver.

    How about coming up with something relevant for a change?

    That happened in the Obama years. Donalds idea is that his taxcuts are going to pay for themselves.
    We're still waiting for it to repay. And Donald got whole new idea's now how to fix his blunder.
    But he first needs to explain how his 1st plan failed, before we can move on to the next.
    Because you know.... It's not convincing he understands economics at the moment.

    Negative. Departments run by Donald are spending money. Congress isn't doing that.

    Because we all know it doesn't serve your agenda well.

    Well that aint true. Obama's plan was repaying the debt. We can all see the graphs. Trump's plan is not repaying for anything. And now he made a whole new plan without explaining his previous disaster. He needs to explain himself.

    Does that explain Trump taking DoD money and spending it on the border wall?

    It is still less debt. That was my only point. I would still like less being spent.

    They eventually pay for themselves because of the resultant economic growth. Nobody has ever claimed that they pay for themselves immediately. Now that the trade agreements are moving forward and the Fed has backed off raising rates for no reason that increased growth will manifest. Quantitative tightening and the Corona Virus scare will be drag chutes.

    And now attack the poster who has shown that your arguments are bogus. Predictable and boring.

    well you can disagree with how the money is spent but congress sent that money to the DOD to be spent. and as head of the DOD Trump to an extent can spend the money how he wants.. the money is still spent and added to the deficit either way.

    Yes. And the money was spent on national security.

    The amount of people being lifted off government aid is a good start though. Mostly from Trump policies.

    Correct. We need to learn to vote against incumbents instead of for them.

    Absolutely. And that is reflected in the polls which indicate black America Trump approval rating over 40%. That means a Trump landslide.
