The hypocrisy of the conservitard fucks is bottomless.
A budget deficit is when expenditures exceed revenues. Got it so far, conservitards?
Therefore, there are two factors that could create a deficit: insufficient revenues or excess expenditures. Are you still with me, dumbass shortbus conservitard fucks?
Therefore, reducing revenues can create a deficit, if expenditures are not decreased to compensate. Increasing expenditures can create a deficit, if revenues are not increased to compensate. Still with me, conservitard idiots?
Trump cut corporate taxes in half, reducing government revenues by over $2 trillion per year---without decreasing expendiitures in any way. And those cuts will persist until at least 2025.
Got it, dumb conservitard fucks? A massive loss of revenue amounting to over $15 trillion.
That's why there is a deficit. DUHHHHHHHH.
