Is it more believable if it comes from Trump's administration?

I don't doubt the debt is spiraling. It's hard to get anything done when an obstructionist Congress is in session. I know, I know they haven't been there very long. But maybe, just maybe, if they could see past their seething hatred for Trump and do their jobs. You know, like legislating and passing bills instead of starting new investigations and trying their damndest to get Trump they could get something done.

The Dems only control the House, while the Repubs control both the Senate and the Presidency. If the Repubs had actually wanted to get something done, they've had two years with control of the Presidency and both parts of Congress.

 Democrats were constantly obstructing any attempts by the current administration for change with constant court appeals  especially from the 9th district.

Oh give me a break. 

Republicans controlled everything for two years when policies were put in place causing this. 

Over those years, not one branch of the goverment gave one turd about the deficite. Trump himself claimed to be the “king of debt” while campaigning and republicans didn’t care. 

This doesnt have one thing to do with a congress that won’t work with trump. 

And, if he doesn’t want “hatred”, stop being a disgusting incompetent lying idiot.

That's exactly how it's worked for pretty much every president ever, though. The people who don't like the stuff the administration is doing will sue and try to tie things up in court. The opposition doesn't just lay down and let their opponents do everything they want.

Republicans did the same thing to Obama.

Obama had the most executive orders in recent history. He would circumvent procedure and do constant end arounds. He was a media darling and didn't get called out on it either.

It's hard to take anything you post seriously when you post something so incredibly wrong which is so incredibly easy to find the truth on. Stop falling for whatever B.S. you're reading/listening to.

Literally the only way this statement is correct is if you're only including 2019-2016. Yes, Obama had the most executive orders of any president during Obama's presidency, lol.
