Rick Scott (R-FL) on Sunday\u2019s broadcast of \u201cFox News Sunday\u201d for criticizing government debt but supporting former President Donald Trump\u2019s tax cuts.<\/p>\n<p>On President Biden\u2019s build Back Better plan, Scott said, \u201cThis has got to end this is this is causing inflation. I mean, this is hurting the poor families. This is not hurting the rich. It\u2019s hurting families like mine growing up that had to struggle to put food on the table. This is ridiculous inflation. Solve that. We have to live within our means like every family does.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"D-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B1\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<figure id=\"gmxrevmore\" class=\"H\"><\/figure>\n<p>Wallace said, \u201cSenator, you talk about living within your means, you talk about the debt, you talk about deficits. The Trump tax cuts, which were passed in 2017, the year before you were elected to the Senate, is estimated by the Congressional Budget Office that it is going to increase the deficit by over $2 trillion over 11 years. So should the Trump tax cuts be repealed?\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"M-ROS-B2\" class=\"a8d\"><\/figure>\n<p>Scott said, \u201cMy experiences, I cut taxes and fees a hundred times over time, over $10 billion, and I actually balanced the budget and paid off a 3rd of the state debt. You can do both.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Wallace interrupted,&nbsp; \u201cBut, sir, respectfully, when Donald Trump was president, you had the tax cut, which added $2 trillion to the deficit, according to the CBO. And you didn\u2019t have the commensurate spending cuts. So, the question is, if you\u2019re not going to have the spending cuts, should you repeal the tax cuts if the debt and deficit are so vital?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Scott said, \u201cFirst off, I am not raising anybody\u2019s taxes. I want lower taxes. I want to watch how we spend our money. I\u2019ve been in the Senate for two years and nine months. The waste is staggering. Americans should be furious with the way money is spent in the Senate and all Congress.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Pam Key on Twitter <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/pamkeyNEN\">@pamkeyNEN<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Fox News host Chris Wallace repeatedly questioned Sen.
