It's basic math. Keep cutting income (tax cuts) while increasing spending leaves you in debt.

When Clinton left office, the US budget had a surplus. We coud have starting paying down the debt. BUT NO!!!

Shrub had to give away to the billionaires and corporations.The Repukes "trickle down" philosophy is just pissing on everything, and continued to this day. The lastest iteration is Dotards "Big Bullshit Bill" adding trillions more in debt.
