Mostly because the Republicans cried crocodile tears about the deficit when a Democratic president was in office, but have no problem blowing up the deficit when a Republican is in office now or when Bush was in office. We're already over a trillion up in debt in the past year and trillions more expected for the tax giveaway in the next few years. And this is in good times when we should be paying down the debt, unlike the beginning of the decade when the US was in recession. I believe Republican obstruction of productive stimulus spending extended the recession longer than it needed to soley for political reasons. Mitch McConnell openly stated his main goal was to prevent Obama from being relected. I'm severely disappointed that most of this increased debt spending now is being forked over to a bloated black hole military budget. https://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/17/us/politics/17mcconnell.html?pagewanted=all https://www.nytimes.com/2010/03/17/us/politics/17mcconnell.h... https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/mar/15/donald-trump-adds-1-trillion-national-debt-14-mont/ https://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2018/mar/15/donald-trump-...
