republicans wanna spend the way 'they want to' and cut every way the democrats want to spend, and just the opposite is true too (austerity only really matters when it's the other party with the control of the budget)

pair this with each district, state, and constitute company/nonprofit/whatever looking for a piece of the pie creates an utter mess of non-stop spending

While the US did have a better image under a democrats president, honestly the overall image and general/technical leadership of the US has been sliding. China has gradually been eroding the position of the US in various markets...now they're just rapidly eroding it under trump haha (ironically/deliberately his position is to curb said erosion).
