The legislation described as Trump's tax and spending bill is fiscally irresponsible because it simultaneously cuts the social safety net and increases the national deficit.

“You somehow managed to severely cut the safety net and expand the deficit. That's impressive. That's one of those, "Hey man, how did you gain all that weight?" Ompic. That's something that's hard to do.”

The administration aims to reduce the budget deficit to a level below 3% of GDP by the end of President Trump's term to stabilize the ratio and begin paying down debt.

“I've said that I would time President Trump leaves office that we would like to have something with a three in front of it, which will stabilize the deficit to GDP, which is important number, and enable us to start paying down debt.”

“and the idea of course behind that was under reagan and the theories of supply side economics that if you cut taxes for people at the very top like i began talking about mitch mcconnell and his people they would have people at the top industrialists and so on would have lots of money and they would ”
