The only way Bronco Bama would believe we have a spending problem, is that we were not spending ENOUGH. He is certainly doing his share to assure we continue to spend what we do not have.
A sane and truly concerned American President would be negotiating to bring this to at least a soft landing. Not to say the Bronco Bama is certifiably mentally troubled, but he does not have the interests of the United States at heart.
