For the last 40 years Republicans have had an intentional policy of running up government debt in order to 'starve the beast' and prevent government from functioning, and in order to force through policy they couldn't via standard democratic means.

Yes, when one half of government intentionally choses to work against our country, and to STRUCTURALLY destroy our government via debt/financial distress, it results in debt and financial distress.

Complaining about anything other than Republicans INTENTIONAL POLICY OF DEBT when talking about US debt is nothing but an extension of that destructive policy.

yup, all the while they convinced their voters that “the other side” is to blame - quite fascinating (also says a lot about the general level of intelligence of cohort supporting this for these last XX years)
