1. Yes. If I recall the tariffs on Canada and Mexico (which won't happen) surrounded immigration, drugs and Chinese trade. If countries want access to the greatest consumer economy the world has ever known then they'll have to play by our rules.

2. I can't tell you where the waste is but I bet it would be eye popping if we were privy to the line by line expenditures.

3. Biden's number will be similar (close to 8 Trillion) by the end of his term

Nobody is against good programs for needy people. Everyone should be against the layers of overlapping bureaucracy I believe we have to deploy funds to the people.

Everyone should be against federal and state agencies rushing to spend money so they can get more the next year.

I think we're going to find a lot of people that aren't needed on the payroll. If that's true we'll have more money for those programs

Something I neglected to mention - roughly 4 trillion of debt under Trump was pandemic relief

If they are our friends why do they charge tariffs on our goods?

he added eight trillion to our debt
Name ONE DEMOCRAT who voted against one of those spending bills.
Democrats were screaming that he wasn’t spending ENOUGH on the pandemic! Five trillion for a Democrat shutdown. What a joke.
