Am I supposed to take away from these plots that we are all good since it's been steadily above the prior record in 1940 since 2020? Or is everything okay since it was really going up and it did course correct to a bit more of a straight line recently?

The article seems to be communicating that this rate of spending is not sustainable.

This must be false. The president wouldn't lie, and if they lied on such a grand scale people wouldnt let them get away with it.

Everyone knows they made 17 trillion dollars from the tariffs.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.
