Uh, in just stimulus money?Huh? What? Bush 5.9 trillion Vs Obama 8.9 trillion?
Bush was bad, but Obama out spent him significantly. If Trump is re-elected he will finish just under Obama.
Biden was elected in '72. Depending on when you served it may very likely be some of the same people. There is a democratic senator, and republican representative elected during the war still active. About a dozen of each elected shortly after, before '80.I am. But this is not the same Democrat or Republican Party it was it was then. I'm not the same person that I was when went to Vietnam. I was very disillusioned when I got back. I don't think I was wrong but I have grown since then. I don't believe the people who escalated the war were criminals or self serving. They were just wrong about what they believed we could accomplish over there. (That may be criminal IDK)
Edit to add: They believed we could control the politics of Indochina and hence the South China Sea. Maybe they were right but we couldn't pull it off.
You would not like the outcome. The house vote is based on state delegations, not total representatives.View attachment 317071
For the record, I'm rooting for the tied EC, just to allow Pelosi the sweet revenge of gaveling Dumb Donald out of office.
