Why? Everything good is because of Trump, and Obama is to blame for everything else? Is that how this works?

It's kinda like Obama had to overcome Bush' economy and caused the current economic boom, all the current good is because of him and every failure he encountered was because of Bush .. the same arguement the left makes to push blame and grab credit

Trump has been taking credit for the economy since before he took office. Obama was blamed for the recession he inherited, from the very first day of his 1st term in office.

Let’s not be silly here.  Every president has in creased the debt except Clinton in most of our lifetimes.  Until the people that lead our country decide to spend less than we make, this trend will continue.  If it were any one of us living like this, we would be bankrupt by now.  One of these days, the US will face the same dilemma.

Exactly, you proved my point, it's based on your political perspective

Okay then how exactly does cutting taxes, while increasing spending on the already obscenely large budget, make any sense, and how does this fit with the claim that Republicans are more physically conservative, than say Democrats. I can only take so much, both sides do it, nonsense.

That excuse is getting old. Everytime Trump does something outrageous, we are all treated to chorus of "both sides do it". How about quit relying on that stupid excuse and demand more from your elected Representatives. They should not be given a free pass, because they are Democratic or Republican. I am not perfect, but I will call out Democrats for being hypocrites.

Cutting taxes does not = less tax revenue in many cases.  MDL bait and switch

I agree with you.  We have seen excessive spending, budget deficits, and gross debt for SO LONG that it has become the norm.  If an elected politician were to ever reduce spending enough to reverse the deficit, I am sure our military would suffer, and it would take more than 100 years to get the debt back down to a manageable level.  In other words, it will never happen.
