@Kypro Then I'll help you. The four surplus years there was a Republican-controlled Congress, except for the end of 2001 when the defection of Jim Jeffords led to a short-lived Democrat majority in the Senate. The five highest increases occurred in years in which Democrats controlled both houses of Congress (except for 2020, when Dems had the House with a GOP Senate). A simple understanding of federalism would have saved you from embarrassing yourself.

@DCarey I understand federalism dude. You’re talking about congress not the states. Who’s embarrassed.

My point was no one party is to blame for debt. We all are.

@Kypro You want to talk about state debt? Let's start with California.

DCarey · 46-50, M

@Kypro That wasn't your point. Your point was to blame it all on Republican presidents. Typical leftist behavior.

@DCarey where did I say that?

Kypro · 51-55, M

Deficits are worse under republicans factually.

@Kypro Again, I realize you didn't know that the power of the purse belongs to Congress, and that is really embarrassing for you, but that doesn't mean you should be posting outright falsehoods.

@Kypro The "chart."

@DCarey your words are embarrassing

@Kypro I proved you wrong, embarrassed you thoroughly in the process, and all you can say is "your words are embarrassing." 🤣🤡
