Scarborough: Trump’s Megabill Cripples American Economy
EXCERPT:
SCARBOROUGH: “And the truth is that under Republicans, from 2017 to 2021, the budgets were bigger than they had ever been, the deficits bigger than they had ever been, the debt bigger than they’d ever been. And here we’re not talking about rounding errors, Jonathan Lemire. We are talking about $20 trillion that these Republicans are going to vote on to add to the federal debt. 20 trillion. We can’t afford it. There’s nothing ideological about this. There’s nothing ideological about those numbers. There’s nothing ideological about not balancing the budget. I know, I was there. We did it four years in a row, the only time that’s happened in the past century. And they’re adding $20 trillion to the debt with this bill, Jon Lemire, and he’s blaming the Congressional Budget Office? I mean, that’s not even shooting the messenger. That’s even worse than that. He can’t, he can’t believe that. He knows that this bill cripples America's economy over the next decade."
