How should a president respond to running a $1.4 trillion budget deficit — 40% higher than before the pandemic — and adding trillions more to 10-year deficits?
If you are President Biden, you take a victory lap touting your “historic deficit reduction.”
In a remarkable feat of gaslighting, the president held a press conference Friday bragging about directing the “largest one-year [deficit] drop in American history.” But Biden did nothing to reduce the deficit. In fact, his policies have added a deluge of red ink.
Between 2017 and 2019, the budget deficit averaged $810 billion annually.

In any other profession or context, Joe Biden would be called a liar for stating explicit falsehoods as truth.
Why is he exempt from the label?

Grandpa Bad Finger Shower Daddy needs to go away. Now. He is not grounded in reality. His mental acuity ceases to exist. It is no more. He is bereft of intelligence. His brain function deceased. His ability for cognitive thought processes have gone to meet his maker. He is a dead parrot.

After all, Biden had to come up with a whopper to top "the best economy in years, no inflation etc!"

He repeats what he’s told. I don’t think he could make change on a $1 bill.

What he meant was he lowered HIS debt. He got another bag of money delivered from the Chinese and his son.

Multiple times a day this man proves he is an idiot. You think he would get tired of making himself look like a fool.

Biden believes that in this era that he can BS enough of the American people to allow the leftist, progressive, and socialist Democrats to maintain control of the Congress. The only reason he believes that is over his long four decades career as a corrupt DC liberal Democrat lawyer-politician he has found that there are a massive number of low information to completely stupid people contained across the US electorate. The upcoming election will tell that story, and may also be the basis of whether Biden sticks around DC to finish his term in office or instead he regresses back to Delaware permanently if the wimpy Republicans gain control of the Congress and in affect neuter Biden up to the 2024 election.

Apparently democrats are much less intelligent than we thought. Joseph Goebbels would laugh at their incompetent efforts to make Joe look good.

I can only imagine that he is talking about the student loan debt. I wonder if he really thinks that debt goes away?

The media needs to stop reporting on him like he's a real president.

We need to start holding the media accountable for NOT reporting this madness. Boycott advertisers loudly, take names. This has to stop.

Money that is planned to be spent, even when specifically earmarked in a budget line ... and then isn't spent on that planned item ... is not a "savings". It's merely a potential budget reduction. Because money is fungible, it will probably get moved and no doubt spent elsewhere.
If you saw a house or car you wanted to buy ... but decided not to buy right now ... that does not mean you "saved" money and cut your other bills. You will just re-appropriate it elsewhere or hold off buying for awhile. You can save millions by not buying yachts, diamond rings, mansions, etc!
This man is a moron to start with and is now even less capable due to his dementia.

Sleepy, creepy is telling the truth, or at least a partial truth. He has reduced his personal debt, Hunter's debt, his brother's debt, etc. So now he can claim that he wasn't lying.

That is all this man and his family does is lie and get rich selling out this country. Just watched some interview of a R Congressman (didn't catch his name) on the Rita Cosby show on Newsmax this morning discussing Biden's NBC interview where he got all confused when asked about DR. Jill. The Congressman (why are Rs so naive?) said that it is sad to see the President this way and that he honestly believes Biden loves this country. WHat a joke. He has been selling out this country long before he became demented.

The most stunning thing about this article is the complaint that the budget deficit was only supposed to be $900 billion. ONLY $900 billion.
If we don't commit to a civil war, then we will certainly die economically. My progeny will fight the wars their parents and grandparents started.
