Please spare us the Republican Party’s fake outrage about the deficit.

The Bush and Trump tax cuts have cost us an estimated $10 trillion since their enactment.

When billionaires and corporations are getting a handout, the GOP couldn’t care less about the national debt.

Remember when Dick Cheney said "Reagan proved deficits don't matter"?

I remember.

@rbreich No one cares about facts and details. It's all about emotions.

Grrr, those negroes are getting something whitey should have.

@rbreich Repealing the #GOP tax cuts should be the answer to articulate in negotiations and the media. And bring back the 90% top tax rate, and initiate a wealth tax. All these should be obvious. The super rich are robbing everyone else and making the poor fund the country, and baiting the ignorant into fighting over crumbs to keep them too busy to see the truth. #Politics

@rbreich Followed you for a long time. Wondering. How much of the debt is from the massive Reagan tax cuts? I have thought for years now that they would be the largest part.
