US budget deficit smashes $1 trillion mark, highest in 7 years

Quote

During his presidential campaign, President Donald Trump promised economic growth that would easily take care of the tax cuts and new spending he planned. His 2017 tax break for corporations and individuals has helped contribute to a deficit that has grown from $584.6 billion in 2016.

In 2009, Limbaugh ranted that Obama was a “coward” without the “spine” or “gonads” to admit he was responsible for driving up the deficit (rather than the two wars President George W. Bush started while cutting taxes). 

In 2011, Limbaugh bizarrely claimed that Obama was "the architect of deficits and debt unheard of in this nation."

Wow!

That's harsh.  We better get an update from Rush.  I bet he's steaming that we are back to $1 trillion deficits - even though the economy under Trump is "perfect" and growing like never before in human history!

What do you make of this Rush?

Rush Limbaugh admits GOP's fiscal attacks on Obama were "bogus," defends Trump's deficit

And while it's not related to the deficit, I can't resist the temptation to point out this other example of Republican hypocrisy

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (Ky.) on Thursday accused President Obama and his advisers of using dirty tactics that demean the presidency.

“The White House and its lieutenants have made an art form out of the orchestrated attack,” McConnell said. “They’ve shown they’ll go after anybody or any organization they think is standing in their way.

“These things demean the office of president. They corrode our democracy and they need to stop.”
