More like selective news. They want to keep the cat in the bag for as long as they can.

10 years ago, at least they were trying to manage it. I remember Clinton balanced the budget? Can you even imagine them trying to do that now?

Yeah, they mentioned how Clinton and the conservative congress did that. Clinton was smart. He knew he couldn't get all of what he wanted to he worked with the Republicans. Guy still brags about balancing the budget lol.

He wasnt perfect. Balancing the budget was a big thing, no one else has tried. No one can. Not even Trump with all of his star power.
