I heard this interview with Senator Charles Schumer on the radio. His voice sounds maybe a little down because Democrats are out of power. His tone changes when it comes to the topic of borrowing money to fund government spending. I sense he's really passionate about increasing spending using borrowed money.

This is from 6:15. You have to listen because it is not in the text.
You have to do [stimulus] with real spending! If you're gonna do it with real spending and garner good Democratic support, you're gonna alienate your hard right because they don't want to spend money. It's going to be [President-elect Trump's] choice.

Put me down as "hard right" according to this trait. I don't want them doing "stimulus" at all. It's a euphemism for going into debt faster than we already are.
