That 'booming' economy?

Cherry picking.

The 2021 budget for the military is $753 billion. The 2021 interest on the debt is $562 billion - and that's with interest rates under 3% for most of the debt. If interest rates rise this year, we will pay more servicing our debt than we spend on the military.

By way of comparison, mandatory spending in 2020 was $4,600 billion.

So if you only spent 151 billion on the military in 2021,the Government could have paid the 2021 interest charge, with out any tax increases.....cool.....oppps they didn't....dumb.

I have already demonstrated that the national debt has increased to pay for Republican tax cuts for the rich, and more spending for a useless military that cannot win wars.

Trump endorses Gosar as Republicans rally around the lawmaker who posted an altered anime video with himself killing a colleague

Former president Donald Trump and House Republicans rallied behind Rep. Paul A. Gosar (R-Ariz.) Thursday, a day after he was censured for posting an altered anime video of himself killing a colleague, endorsing his reelection and signaling he would be given better committee assignments if Republicans win control of the House in 2022.

Trump praised Gosar, who earlier this year appeared at an event whose organizer has defended racial segregation and minimized the Holocaust, as “a loyal supporter of our America First agenda, and even more importantly, the USA.”

“Paul is a Congressman who is highly respected in Arizona, strong on Crime, Borders, our Military, and our Veterans,” Trump said in a statement. “He continually fights for Lower Taxes, Less Regulations, and our great, but under siege, Second Amendment. Paul A. Gosar has my Complete and Total Endorsement!”

What Trump is saying is that if the Republicans come back to power there will be more tax cuts for the rich, more money wasted on that worthless military - and consequently more national debt - and no effort to fight the global warming that was very obvious last summer.

Trump is not much of a reader, so I doubt he knows who Edmund Burke was. Burke made a name for himself condemning the French Revolution in his Reflections on the French Revolution. Burke is considered to be the father of British conservatism.

In his Reflections on the French Revolution Burke wrote:

"Society is indeed a contract...

"It becomes a partnership, not only between those who are living, but between those who are living, those who are dead,. and those who are to be born."

Beginning with Ronald Reagan the Republican Party has acted as though it is acceptable for the United States to live off of previous achievements, while borrowing from the future.

Joe Biden and his communists have turned a booming economy into a big dud.
 
No it's just moved to a domestic venue and it's not baiting.

You can't have a domestic Cold War without Communists, and there are too few American Communists to matter, and they have nothing to do with the Dems, or even with further-left organizations like the Working Families Party.
 
Yeah it does, they're in the government.

No, they're not, no more than there were Communists in the government in Eisenhower's time, when McCarthy made an issue of it. (There had been, but the Truman Administration purged them before McCarthy was ever heard of.)
