repubs lying to put the $2 trillion deficit increase on Dem shoulders. THEY HAVE NO SHAME

Link to tweet

Mick Mulvaney telling @jaketapper that the $2 trillion deficit increase under Trump required Democratic votes is just a flat out falsehood. They used budget reconciliation to pass tax reform so they wouldn’t need Democrats.

he does know his stuff but he was running out of time with this segment and let it go. He did call him out on several other issues so he's getting better.

Never let them get away with these lies. If we aren't there to check them, we need to check them at the next available opportunity. We can not let them get away with this any longer.

are insane

mulvaney is a perfect example - he once proudly claimed he was a 'rush baby' and these ignorant racists have descended on the white house like a cloud of orange assholes

if liberals/dems hadn't been ignoring talk radio and team limbaugh mulvaney would be selling cars or pillows or used buckets

committed to the notion that this is our greatest weakness, it certainly does seem that way when you scan through talk radio and get almost nothing but wingnuts or bible-thumpers.

Looked at the Republiconradio.org site btw. Is that your webpage? Where does the data come from (cost/return = myth re: radio is for profit, etc.).

What would it cost to counter this?

kill rw radio thanks to AI

but we can speed things up

shut down the motherf**ker's base

talk radio's 'worth' is just some mathematics to help visualize the effect. $1000/hr may be cheap in some places and high in others

No House or Senate Dems voted for the tax overhaul. Bob Corker was only Senate Repub to vote No while 12 Repubs in House voted No, so the huge deficit increase from the tax giveaway is entirely the Repubs and Trump's responsibility. No excuses should be allowed to slide on this.

and lie that we did it. And its always, always a fucking
lie.

God so much fucking Republican lying. It is completely out of hand. How do we get control of this shit?

This is why it drives me crazy every time a host that is doing the interview doesn't correct the lie.
