That's not true Shaun. They stand for themselves!
The United States Government, completely controlled by Republicans, just borrowed a record $488 billion dollars to get through the first quarter alone. By 2020, deficits are expected to rise to $1 trillion. Republicans don't stand for anything.https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-04-30/treasury-s-488-billion-in-borrowing-sets-a-first-quarter-record …

Donald Trump enjoys taking out massive loans and then defaulting on them so he doesn’t have to pay them back. That’s what he’s done his whole life. He thinks that makes him smart.

Schemes and the ability to lie & con many people is the essence of trump's entire life's identity. A man who is insecure about his wealth, competence and masculinity, who has never had to face any real life consequences.

That’s 72 years of buildup that will all boomerang back on him. We’ve never seen anything like this before, and consequently, we are unable to predict the unintended fallout.

And yet the GOP stands on "small government", and none of that money would go towards anything helpful, like Social Security, healthcare (like
#Medicare4All), or education. The GOP is full of lip service.#GOPExit#NeverTrump#TrumpIsEstablishmentThanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Why does a sovereign currency issuer like the US need to "borrow" in its own currency? Our federal government isn't constrained by money but by real resources like land, labor, and fossil fuels.

(Corrections) The US govt moved $488 billion from reserve accounts at the Fed, to interest bearing securities accounts (AKA Treasury bonds). It does NOT do this as a funding operation, since the US has full monetary sovereignty. By 2020 non govt surpluses to rise to 1 trillion

Repeat after me: The public sector deficit is the private sector surplus. The public sector deficit is the private sector surplus. The public sector deficit is the private sector surplus. The problem isn't federal debt. The problem is how it is allocated.

What people don't see is that REPUBLICANS irresponsibly lower taxes increasing Debt & Deficits when in charge, but when DEMOCRATS have to responsibly raise taxes to pay for their mess, they use it as a Campaign wedge issue.

Don’t buy into the “borrowing” ruse. The US can’t borrow US currency.
#MMT Taxes drive currency but aren’t needed for spending any more than a movie theater has to collect tickets before it sells them. Government sells and buys bonds but only as monetary tool.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
