the history has demonstrated these are Republican problems.

Democrats are shit for other things, but not for fisical stupidity like cutting taxes and rasing spending.

Why does nobody post references anymore!? These are simple facts that nobody should be arguing about.

> Republican presidents added about $1.4 trillion per four-year term, compared to $1.2 trillion added by Democrats since 1913.

> Democratic presidents have added a total of $18 trillion to the national debt since 1913 (adjusted for inflation), while Republicans have added $17.3 trillion

So everyone downvoting and flagging people saying it's a problem with both parties should be ashamed. Tribalism is stupid.

lmgtfy and ask chatgpt; if you cant' ascertain the truth of this statement you live in a delusion.

Sure, but with a reference, you can have an argument about the topic, based on facts, rather than an argument about the delusions (looking at the adjacent comments, that's what this was). I don't think the later is appropriate for HN.
