How much has the GOP's inaction cost taxpayers and our children since Jan 1, 2020?

$1.987 trillion as of Wednesday 05/13/20. Annualized to a calendar year, that puts us on course for $7.350 trillion more debt before New Years. You and your children will have to find a way to pay that down.

Conservatism is a failure. They want to say they're fiscally conservative. But while their eyes are on the stock market, the money is flying out the back door, simply because they lack the ability to govern.
