Joe: President Donald Trump Lying To Americans About Paying Down Debt | Morning Joe | MSNBC
So Republicans are no longer “fiscal conservatives”…
gee, who coulda seen that coming…
The problem isn’t that the republicans don’t practice what they preach, instead the problem really comes down to loyal GOP voters who are lied to, and tricked into believing that the economy performs better when republicans are at the wheel. That illusion needs to be broken, and Fox News is the news body that needs to flip for that to make sense to the rest of US. If Fox could be forced into telling the truth about the state of economic health (i.e. the full picture) loyal republicans would take their elected officials to task.
@MWhaleK YES! Ike, the radical leftist who had a balanced budget, even though State College in State tuition was free or quasi-free! If someone resuscitated Ike, the wingnuts’ would call him a commie. Even Nixon was a socialist, making dialysis free for all Americans: the only universal healthcare to date.
@Fisher 33 Mmm, there’s one other reason “they” hated Obama from day 1. Trump’s “send them back” rally chant gained him 2 points in approval ratings. White identity politics.
@Mark S The 3 anchors of this show are a non liberal Democrat, a Conservative and a Centrist. And half of MSNBC’s anchors & contributors are Republicans from the Reagan or Bush 1 & 2 admin. Imagine that.
Nyx Personally, I think it has less to do with racism and more with party bias. Obama could have been white and they’d still hate his guts simply because he’s a Democrat. Forget not, we have a lot of uneducated morons in this country who simply treat their political party like it’s a sports team.
when the brainwashed run out of credit, they can no longer deny they were conned
Reminds me of the fish general in star wars! Credit, It’s a trap!!
look. Young Bush sr travelled the republican strongholds during the heights of Watergate. Starting a few mnths before the pardon(or was it immidiately after? thereabout) he did a survey where he asked what kept the remaining voters on the party, why they continued to support him/the party. At turned out that the reply/result of the questions from the voters he got over and over was that so long they where tld everything ws ging to be ok then they would stay loyal. That was all it took then. A promise that it would be better. He tok that nte with him, and its been the fundation f the GP strat ever since. Just promise itl get better. And Trump knows this, and he have added all the things trump is good at.
He can shoot someone on 5th avenue and not only get away with it, he can do it and turn around and say that what we saw and what we heard wasnt wht happend. And some will believe it. He can take their paycheck and laugh then in the face while he say its a good deal, and people will believe him
Its that bad. Murica needs to add Kirkegaard and effin KarlMarx to schoolbasics. Can leave out the Karlmarx parts abut how he wants to structure society. Were not aimin at communism Whats important is his analysis about the relations between available and provided information, how its distributed and from where, who decides what info is relevant and how the relation between worker and employer, between buyer and seller in some abstract sense is driven by decieving your neighbour.. etc etc
Murica needs to learn to think again. Its been alrdy decades since the first public schols removed darwin and replaced him with intelligent designs- The effect from the multi-front warfare against the public intellect is showing, and its getting clearer and clearer that the effect is devastating. The dumbing down is not an attack on the left, or the right. or the medias, or democracy.
Its an attack on human evolution, nothing less
They will blame the Chinese, immigrants or the (non existing ) ‘U,S’ socialists” They will find a way not to look within. That’ what been brainwashed means .Not seeing the bloody obvious in front of one’s nose .
I will not knowingly do business with any entity related to Trump or Trump supporters.
@Mark S GFY
Argus – Shows how stupid the left really are. I’d consider myself a fool if i denied myself a better life because I was to butt hurt to allow others to have their own opinions. You must be a control freak. I hope you’re not married and if you are that poor woman must be miserable. Just sayin…..
Chick-Fil-A tho!
I told my ‘aquaintances’ two years ago NOT to put false hope in Trump’s economy, you’ll be sorry …
@Irene Owens When (2020) a democrat replaces the lunatic Donald he/she will get the blame for the huge deficit and a recession which is likely to come. That’s what happened to Obama, he inherited a finial crash from incompetent Bush, which had a devastating global impact, and the stupid, ignorant republican supporters blamed Obama for the disaster. Donald took over a laid table after Obama and has the audacity to take credit for the improved economy. Donald is the most disgusting, mentally ill person I have seen in my lifetime.

Irene Owens No, it’s not. I live in DC and there are many good homeless people within miles of the White House and Capitol where the representatives work. They are supposed to put the interests of the citizens first if this was truly a democracy. None of the budget increases mentioned in this story is going to help them. People keep saying this is a capitalist country, but truth is about 2% are true capitalists and the rest merchants, traders, laborers, suits, or peasants. Cognitive dissonance is a mf.
@karin backstrom Exactly …
@TrikkiNikki Treasures Yup Yup!
I don’t believe that SS or Medicare will stop. What I do believe is that the payments will be less and that whatever the payments are will cover less.
That’s one reason we need immigrants.
Can we say trump not only rapes women, he he rapes the USA, in more ways than one!
He kinda took our temperature with an all-meat thermometer, huh?
Bill Clinton rapes little girls
Warrior But…but what about Obama! Clintons! What about EVERYONE except your ugly turd of a messiah! Unless you love corruption, I’m pretty sure you’re one of the ignorant base that had NO CLUE, that Trump committed more SERIOUS crimes in the last 45 years, than anyone else I can think of. TRUMP SEXUALLY ASSAULTED 23 women by 1991, when I left NY. One of a hundred of his crimes that were all documented. A CRIME BOSS IS IN THE WH. “Trump derangement syndrome” has an origin.
@Colin Silver but true
Both parties are owned by the same intrest groups these guys have just agreed to spend almost 800 billion on more war that is why we need Bernie…
That’s Billion, with a B.
800 billion on more war,but no money for all Americans to have decent healthcare…… Weird.
We need that money for “the people”, not the military! The money probably won’t even go to the military. Trump has already tried to use military money for his wall. I bet that’s what the plan is.. But we will see. And the funny thing to me is, this deal is good until 2021, after the elections. That seems shady to me.
Could have made us all millionaires with that type of money
It’s what they do when republicans are in power. Pass the buck and complain about the deficit when a democrat has the purse.
Nancy polosi and Mitch McConnell are selling this country down the river.
Pussylosi needs to go, and elect one of the 4 girls with some balls
congress is the least popular branch of government and they earn the distinction daily. completely lazy and useless fools with no thought for the future. meanwhile, china has plans for 10 years out, 50 years out, and even 100 years out for their country.
The middle class, and poor people cant pay any more taxes………..middle class are the new poor ,and the poor are dying
Taxes are lower now than any other time in my life. What are you talking about?
And what are we to do ?? Lol
The poor get poorer. The middle class gets the middle finger from Trump!
What an understatement! Trump is pulling off the biggest theft of all time. Trump is lying continuously, providing not much more than distraction. Can you borrow more money in a year than you even make! It seemed like minutes from when a percentage of individuals had as much net worth as the bottom 50%. Now three, that’s 3 individuals, have net worth more than the bottom 50%. The country is going to crash and be burned. Trump is a complete fake. Trump is de facto the dictator of the USA. If threatened he will declare Martial Law, which he can legally do any day he has a National Emergency in place. He has four National Emergencies in place now. Face it folks, your country was taken over by a criminal cabal. Trump is dictator for life. The number of co-conspirators is enormous, and that accounts for why the entire Congress and SCOTUS go right along with the Trump admin. But make no mistake: Trump is an old, drug addicted, demented fool. He is not the person doing all this stuff. That’s why there is so much reversal.
Republicans ruin the economy every single time. Why do people believe that they are the ones good with money?
Jack Makackov, Donald´s primitive fans do not understand anything about politics. They do not understand what a huge deficit means and how it affects their lives. And they don’t care, they just want immigrants out of the country, that is MAGA to them. They are dangerous people, a threat to America, its safety, its global reputation, its democracy and its economy.
Sent from Sweden
They are good with money our kids money
They are sooo good with money that they find the way to take it all from midle class And ripoff every one else And make theyselfs richest…
@karin backstrom yeah they are stupid And ignorant..
this is a man who lost a casino.why are we surprised?
@ᕼᑌᗰᗩᑎ ᖴᗴᒪᒪᗩ WOW!! I didn’t know about Carl Icahn! Unbelievable! I can’t imagine how much crap is going on in the White House that is illegal,and secret (for now). SMH Vote Him Out 2020
@Nick Wade, Correction: this man has had 6 Corporate BANKRUPTCIES. The U.S. will be bankrupt by the time he leaves the office.
LaQ SViL YES. Just wondering, since you know at least one of his scams, (gutting businesses, and money laundering) and I know of at least 70 of his serious crimes, WHY didn’t Dems bring all of it up during the campaign? I know they read national news, global news. A famous massive SCAM ARTIST is in the WH, and NO ONE spoke out?? And still hasn’t. Why?
a man who inherited $400 million and lost $900 million
Tax Cuts for the Rich. Always remember that.
You have zero understanding of economics. But at least you can always depend on welfare if your traitorous anti-American Democrat Party coming to power again. They give you welfare and you give them your vote.
@Mark S You probably can’t even distinguish the difference between macro and micro economics.
@Mark S Wait google to the rescue
@Mark S <-- Idiot of the day.
CUTS FOR THE POOR !!!!
This is what the republicans have done to your country. HAVE YOU HAD ENOUGH YET AMERICA???????????
The American people will say they had enough only when a Democrat is in the White House
No we haven’t. We want more! Donald Trump Landslide victory in 2020!
@whaledog77 Personally I don’t mind who’s in the office as long as it’s not Trump, he has zero knowledge on how to do anything correctly and seems like the kinda dude to sabotage things for not getting his way.
@Nameless I agree! Anyone but Trump! He should have taken a crash course of “School House Rock”, before being sworn in! But then again, that’s probably over his head… Nevermind… Vote Him Out 2020
@Mark S RUSSIAN BOT..REPORT
That’s okay, Dems will fix it by taxing Wall Street rich folks, and the ultra rich.
“But they will move away”
To Cambodia.
Trump always states that things will get done during his next term. The first thing he was suppose to do was Health Care. Get this clown out of office and back to Barnum & Bailey Circus.
The circus don’t want him, they have enough clowns 🎭
@Gregory Holmes More talented clowns too.
Also orangutans!
Does this mean more taxpayer funded golf trips for Commander in Tweets?
Hahaha “Commander in Tweets” sounds perfect the the cowardly fatfuck.
Trump and Fox “News” used to slam Obama for golfing so often.
Trump has tried to hide how much he golfs bc deep down he knows he’s a lazy hypocrite.
Trump and his Banana Republic’ans need to be held accountable for their crimes.
Republicans only become deficit hawks when they can block sensible social policies with it.
Republicans are only deficit hawks when a Democrat is in the white House
Trump swears he’ll pay off the debt in 8 years? He has never paid off any of his own personal/business debts in his life, so we’re supposed to take him on his word?
You’re right. Bankruptcy is what tRuMp does best. He doesn’t have to pay interest when he files bankruptcy.
FACTS!!! Nor did he pay taxes
@r light You’re so right on that, as well. For the life of me, I’ve never seen such a sight from the republicans in all my life. I’m so upset by all the things tRuMp gets by with. I pray to God that he would not allow tRuMp another 4 yrs in office. I don’t think my nerves could handle that.
