How will we pay for it? This President is exploding the deficit during a time of prosperity, and Trumptards cheer.

February budget deficit was the highest in history:

What happened to fiscal accountability? Blame dems?

Edit to add: I am FOR infrastructure spending, but ONLY if we can pay for it.
