As far as a $1.3 trillion deficit sounding like "progress" to you - whilst comparing it to a 2020 budget that had the double-whammy of reduced revenue due to COVID and increased spending for the same reason - is:
1) Not really apples to apples;
2) Is still $1.3 trillion that will be added to the federal debt, and;
3) Can't really be called "progress" in this content. At best, one might say that it "sucks less".

Did you bitch and moan when 2018 TCJA (Middle Class Tax Cuts
) added $1 to $2 Trillion deficit on tax breaks to people to people who didn't need it. Or did you claim that as a brilliant plan to boost our economy, when it did not need any boosting?
