"The extreme Republicans, they want to lecture the country on fiscal responsibility when 25% of the nation's debt incurred during the four years of the Trump presidency," Jeffries said. He added that Democrats have cut the deficit by $1.7 trillion in the last two years, but those cuts mostly represent the end of emergency spending on the COVID-19 pandemic.

Long story short blame someone else... YAWN
On Big Corps - Needing Huge Wind Fall Profits !
Democrats have a spending problem! They cannot stop themselves from using the Govt money for their pet projects! Tax Payers are left with the Bill! GOP will not let them keep spending!
Soon they will start collecting breathing tax
She's irrelevant
She thought she was in New York when she was talking from Washington DC the DC in her case means Dumb Crap 💩.
And the $10-Trillion our debt grew under Obama?
Ignorant
Glad it’s not the cow farts this time
They’ll blame trump for “global warming.” It’s just a game to them.
She needs to stop talking to Liz Warren.
They really BELIEVE they deserve ALL YOUR MONEY!!
Respectfully, AOC is wrong, and the Democrats had better look at cuts unless they want to keep inflation around to strangle families.
Biden claim is his administration brought in 3trillion oh wait that was Trumps tax plan as Bidens Tax plan just got voted in
Shame on the NYC district that voted her back into office.
🪳
What mirror does she use
“It’s not that we spent too much, it’s that we stole too little”
AoxAox is dumb. 🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🐱
Why are we asking a bartender about fiscal policy? Hey AOC how about a Moscow Mule!
She is not the sharpest tool in the shed! Just says false talking points of left.
One of the great minds of out time!!😂😂😂😂
Wrong. Spending is the govt's real problem.
95% of commercials and advertisements on TV and radio are totally against American sensibility and reasoning a total disgrace to the competence of the advertising agencies and a terrible waste of American valuable time the FCC should step in and regulate such a travesty
Didnt Trump pay it down by 5 trillion before Biden added 8 trillion, and hasnt paid any of it down, even by the exorbitant inflation of EVERYTHING ?
Ask a political hack an honest question and get lied to because it conflicts with her lying ass! We all know the Trump tax cut reform helped average working Americans, I was able to purchase an SUV with it as it covered my payment plan! TRUTH!!!
The Treasury Department reported that income tax collections for FY 2018 totaled $1.7 trillion up $14 billion from fiscal 2017, an all-time high. That's despite the fact that individual income tax rates got a significant cut as part of President Donald Trump's tax reform plan.
And the world is flat
Child care tax credit was $4,000 now it’s only $600. Single parents please use the Tax Simulator so you can have more money taken out of your paycheck like me cause I wind up owing more next year. 🤨 I brought home more money when trump was president. Appreciative Independent.
haha
AOC someone who has her degree in “economics” still can’t explain, just parrot the DNC talking point (official one)… and GOP is feckless in countering… Trump tax cuts did what—reduce taxes on individuals and corps, did Congress make any adjustments to spending? Hmmm
Don't go to the same schools she attended. Obviously they didn't teach her shit.
Donald Trump mishandling on many things during his one term affected years of repairs !
$4.9T in tax revenue under that trump tax cuts. Seems to be working. Stop spending so much
I’m surprised she didn’t blame the gas stoves
Democrats NEED Trump more than he needs his base voters 😂🤣
Wow. Fucking wow.
It's always someone else
Can't accurately balance a bartab but in modern America jibber jabbers about $trillions of dollars.
Annual federal revenue below......
Repeating the empty rhetoric…
This woman is average. Never accepting faults and accountability. Blaming others for their failures.
idiot
