The GOP blocked the current relief bill, since, per McCarthy, it contributes to the ballooning deficit.

I am not one for advocating deficits. However, after eight years of blasting Obama for increasing the deficit, Trump has added more deficit in the last four years than Obama ever did. And Trump did not have to dig out of an economic crisis. No Republicans appeared to even pronounce the word “deficit” during the last four years of profligate spending and tax giveaways to the rich.

But now that Democrats will be in charge again, the deficit is all of a sudden a word again. Obama took over an economy in shambles and rebuilt it. His crime: The recovery was “too slow.” He increased the deficit, and we heard about it every day. Biden now takes over an economy in shambles, as well as a public health catastrophe, all created by the incompetence of Trump, and we’re worried about the deficit again?

Give me a break!
