This one bill will add 3 trillion....and it will take away necessary programs in the process...Trump has already added 8 trillion without the 3 trillion...
The Democrats haven't been in control for all of the 12 years....so precisely how did they add 17.7 trillion to the debt?Who cares? If you didn't give a shit when Democrats added $17.7 trillion in 12 years, then spare me the faux outrage about pretending to care that Republicans added $15.7 trillion in 12+ years.
Either adding tens of trillions in debt is bad all the time, regardless of hyperpartisan bias, or it's not bad at all.

I don't really see gold as a solid investment either....WE actually should discuss debt and what is necessary debt and what is not...giving billionaires a tax cut is not a needed debt...Rather than point fingers at which party spent more, just buy gold. No matter who’s in charge, the dollar is fooked in the long run.

Congress is in control of spending...not the president except for the past few months.Democratic presidents most definitely have been in control for 12 of the past 24 years of reckless spending…
If Biden's spending caused inflation, it's curious that Trump's higher spending is continuing the drop in inflation that's been ongoing since 2022.
The annual core inflation rate in the United States was 2.8% in April 2025, which is a four-year low. This figure excludes volatile items like food and energy. Shelter costs accounted for over two-thirds of the overall 12-month increase, and were at 4%. You mean the inflation COVID caused? By the time Biden left office, inflation was under three percent. I love how you guys are so quick to make the left angry all the time, don't feel too badly, you aren't the only one who does it.

Biden? Really.Biden inherited a booming economy that was seeing massive reductions in unemployment, low inflation and massive positive gains in income and multiple quarters of gdp growth, falling childhood poverty. It was the envy of the world.
Pretty good start for any president.
Who creates the budget?I don't even know where to begin with the fact that you apparently don't know that presidents sign annual appropriations bills into law pretty much every year, including every year in the time frame I cited.
Congress does not unilaterally pass FY budgets without presidential approval. They have an option of overriding presidential vetoes with a 2/3rds vote in each chamber, but that hasn't been done with any annual appropriations bill vetoes during W. Bush, Obama, Trump, or Biden presidencies.
In other words, all of those presidents signed off on every annual appropriations bill that has been put into action since 2001.
Who creates the budget?
The budget is created by Congress and passed by Congress. The only hand the president has is signing it.Creating the U.S. federal budget
The budget planning begins a year before the budget is to go into effect. Federal agencies create budget requests and submit them to the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB).
OMB refers to the agencies’ requests as it develops the budget proposal for the president.
The president submits the budget proposal to Congress early the next year.
Proposed funding is divided among 12 subcommittees, which hold hearings. Each is responsible for funding for different government functions such as defense spending or energy and water.
The House and Senate create their own budget resolutions, which must be negotiated and merged. Both houses must pass a single version of each funding bill.
Congress sends the approved funding bills to the president to sign or veto.
Incorrect:The budget is created by Congress and passed by Congress. The only hand the president has is signing it.
The Congress entirely controls the budget and you intentionally skipped over the link showing you Trump added far more debt that BidenIncorrect:
A) The POTUS submits a proposal and engages in negotiations with congress in exchange for an agreement to sign the budget into law.
B) The president can veto it if they don’t approve of it. Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden all chose to sign each annual budget instead of vetoing.
They own the budgets they voluntarily signed into law. They could’ve vetoed if they disapproved, but they didn’t.
U.S. Debt by President: Dollar and Percentage
The national debt has increased under most U.S. presidents. Here is how much each president's time in office added to the U.S. debt by percentage and dollar amounts.www.investopedia.com

Trump added 39% in 4 years. Biden added 30% Care to explain why Trump needs to add 3.8 trillion more while slashing our programs and infrastructure by about 90%?From your link:
Bush added $4.21 trillion
Obama added $7.66 trillion
Trump added $7.8 trillion
Biden added $8.46 trillion
All voluntarily signed those budgets into law and none of the annual budgets were the result of Congress overriding a presidential veto.
See!! Look at those five numbers:Biden? Really.
