BUCK: We started off the show talking about the lie from Joe Biden when he falsely said that five cops died, but also arguing that Putin’s actions were inspired by January 6th. Well, now he’s also saying no one has ever lowered federal deficit as much as he has. But remember, this is totally false because Bill Clinton — remember balance the budget — also ran budget surpluses. Let’s listen to cut 17.
BIDEN: There’s a lot more to my plan to lower costs and lower — and lower the deficit. By the way, we’re gonna lower the deficit by a trillion dollars this year. These guys talk about how they always worried about our spend… We’re lowering the deficit. No one’s ever done that!
CLAY: Yeah, Bill Clinton balanced the budget. Buck, you remember, and it used to be — I don’t know if it still exists — they had the billboard with the national debt in New York City that was constantly going up to show you what your share of the national debt was. Clinton balanced the budget, but this is also the budget artifice because the budget got blown up by the covid spending, which is not actually in any way representative.
