The president signs the budget and therefore is responsible for it. If you remember when Clinton was in office, he wouldn't sign what the Republican congress gave him until it was how he wanted it. Do you not remember the govt shut down during the battle with Clinton vs Republican congress?

Reagan could have done the same, "if" what you claim is true.. Instead he signed off on budgets that doubled our national debit.
